San Francisco: Scandinavian countries including Sweden are regularly at the top of any list highlighting the healthiest and happiest countries on Earth, and that is in part because of their commitment to nutrition, especially with children. After becoming a new mom in 2017, founder Louise Fritjofsson couldn’t find in the U.S. the nutritional staples she and generations of Swedes grew up on and as a result launched her third company, Bla Bla Foods (http://www.blablafoods.com/)
“I’ve always prioritized healthy living and eating, and when becoming a mom, I constantly worry if my son is getting the nutrients he needs and struggled to find the staples of my childhood in Sweden like Välling and Smart Oats, which are free of preservatives, gums and sugar,” said Louise Fritjofsson
This opportunity drove Louise to leave her career in tech where she had launched three digital-focused companies and mentored hundreds of start-ups and products via a tech accelerator. Now she is focused on creating products that fill the void in the American market with the Swedish-inspired foods with function that both satisfy the nutritional needs of children and worrying minds of parents.
Bla Bla Foods first products to market, Oat Milk Välling and Smart Oats, might sound unique to Americans, but in Sweden “these are foods that parents regularly rely upon for the nutritional needs of their kids – drawing from Swedish minimalism with no preservatives or added sugar,” said Fritjofsson.
OAT MILK VÄLLING (https://www.blablafoods.com/
Välling is a thick, nutrient-dense, all-natural, plant-based, organic oat milk in powder form and Bla Bla Foods is the first in the U.S. to offer it, despite reportedly 55% of Swedes serving it to their children. Mix with water or any type of milk and parents have a superfood packed with protein, iron, calcium and fibers, with no preservatives or added sugar. More than 60% of Swedish consumers of välling serve it before bedtime as its trusted to enhance a child’s ability to sleep. Also, babies commonly suffer from iron deficiency after 12 months of age, which is why the Swedish Food Administration specifically recommends välling as a source of iron.
