bourbon & bacon popcorn 50g
the wondersnack co.
We couldn’t possibly describe this box as being filled with ‘manly treat sensations’ without including some bacon! Enter... The Wondersnack’s Bourbon and Bacon Popcorn – genius! First, they take bacon from rare breed, free-range, ethically-raised pigs, sourced directly from their farms in Victoria, and they candy it. Then they add popcorn, smoked paprika, a splash of bourbon, house-made butterscotch, and a dash of smoky chipotle chilli. Right now, you are probably looking at the most awe-inspiring combination known to man. Ever.

Established in Melbourne, founder Christy Loekito works hard to push boundaries and challenge what packaged snacks can be. They have taken a small batch approach to making their snacks, where time, care and good ingredients are essential to the finished product. You won’t find any fillers, preservatives, or additives in any of their snacks, all of which pack big hits of flavour, so that a little goes a long way. They specialize in familiar snacks with awesome twists that will make you do a double take; and they are so good we think they should come with an addiction warning! RRP $8.95 | where to reorder www.wondersnack.com.au ingredients Popcorn (33%), brown sugar, unsalted cultured butter, candied bacon (free range bacon, brown sugar) (11%), honey, bourbon (2%), sea salt, spices, chipotle chilli powder. No garlic is used in this product, although we do operate in a shared facility which comes in contact with a variety of ingredients, including garlic. Gluten Free
hickory macadamias 80g
it’s the ducks nuts
These sensational snackables are simply the best…the duck’s nuts, the bee’s knees, the ant’s pants. 100% local Australian macadamias in the perfect size and price for munching. (And happily, no ducks were harmed in making these products!) Available in seven sensational flavours, no doubt these Byron Bay beauties will make their way back to another Little Box soon. Keep your eyes peeled! It all begins with some little brown ducks… While the true origin of the name is the site of their original farm, Duck Creek Mountain, the more romantic version is that their name was derived from the legend of the little brown duck, native to the Northern Rivers region. The story goes that a little brown duck once mistook its own green egg to be a macadamia nut encased in its hard green husk. Waiting for the husk to open to reveal the deliciousness within, our little brown duck was shocked (and no doubt thrilled) when the husk split of its own accord, only to reveal a true surprise – an even littler little brown duck! Their macadamia business started in 1987 with the purchase of two macadamia farms – in Newrybar and Teven. As the business grew they came to rely on not only their own harvests, but those of other local growers. Over the years they have built a reputation as producer of Australia’s finest macadamia products – including cold pressed oil, pure macadamia honey and of course their premium sweet and savoury macadamias. Almost 30 years later, Duck Creek Macadamias is still 100% Australian owned and run, operating from the original farmhouse in historic Newrybar in the heart of the pristine Byron Bay hinterland. And as they grow they never lose sight of their farmhouse origins, celebrating the Australian macadamia and of being truly “of and from the farm”. RRP $6.90 | where to reorder www.duck-creek.com.au ingredients Macadamias 98%, hickory flavouring 2% (salt, flavour enhancers [621, 627, 631], sugar, smoke flavouring, maltodextrin, yeast extract, anticaking agent [554], flavours) Gluten Free

Smoked Cola 275ml
Thought cola was just for drinking? Think again! Back when backwoods were backwoods – and dental hygiene was a thing of the future – the humble cola reigned supreme. These tantalising tonics played host to orgies of exotic herbs such as cassia, cinnamon, clove and cardamom. In tribute, we went back to our roots. The good folks at Strangelove muddled the finest Madagascan vanilla pods, nutmeg nuts and cinnamon quills to bring you a cola worthy of any dusty lab this side of Tennessee. And then they smoked it. Because anything in life worth doing, is worth doing smoked.
