Our story
Every adventure starts for a reason. In 2015, after 20 years of being vegetarian,
Melissa discovered that she was lactose intolerant and felt terrible after eating dairy.
She wanted to feel the best she could and be full of energy to enjoy life to the fullest. She loved cheese and went on a mission to find a great tasting dairy free cheese in Dubai.
However, all the plant-based cheeses were full of bad ingredients and made her feel sick, so she decided to create a healthy and tasty vegan cheese. Soon, she realized that she could help others too.
That is how nuttino was born. Since then, Melissa has been on a mission to spread happiness one cheese at a time and help others feel good and nurture their bodies.
