The star ingredient
Meet the tigernut
Despite the name, tigernuts aren’t nuts at all. They’re small, naturally sweet tubers that people have enjoyed as food for centuries, and the ingredient behind every Kubby Chef product.
- Tuber: not a nut or tree nut
- Fibre: an excellent source
- Sweet: naturally, with a nutty flavour
- Clean: grown without pesticides, herbicides or synthetic fertilisers

Our story
Real food, made easy
Changing my diet changed my life. I was so inspired that I started helping others, and watched the magic of food unfold in their lives.
The biggest challenge was that real food wasn’t convenient. So I created Kubby Chef: clean-label, minimally processed foods made from simple, whole ingredients you can recognise. Everyday foods that fit busy family life, without the fillers.
