It's been an incredible run for us, meeting so many people we've touched with our Mera Bites, as well as those who have inspired us to do what we do. The most rewarding moments are receiving personal messages, (or “love letters,” as we like to call them,) from folks who love our cookies, especially those who couldn’t otherwise enjoy sweets.
We started this business because we wanted to share our joy-- make our way to your heart through your tummy. It hasn’t just been about baking for us. It’s. been about the special connections we’ve created along this journey.
Whether you were with us from our humble beginnings, preparing healthy Paleo meals for Cross Fit gyms and baking from home, or while we grew into our production facilities serving large grocery chains—we are grateful for your support.
Regretfully, as you might imagine, the pandemic came with challenges for us-- particularly as a premium-ingredient, food company. We attempted to weather this storm, but skyrocketed ingredient and operating prices have become too unsustainable. We've always prided ourselves with our product integrity, so it has become near impossible to maintain our quality standards, affordably.
As such, we've made the tough decision to pause our Mera Bites operation indefinitely. We believe the universe has a bigger picture, and life is full of stepping stones. Although we may not see the end quilt, we know we will always be a part of the fabric that promotes health and happiness.
We've made such incredible industry friends and have cherished being on this rewarding entrepreneurial adventure. In a time when it wasn’t easy to find “Better For You” snack options in grocery aisles, we’re proud to have been a part of the trailblazers in this healthy space.
Thank you for sharing this 10-year journey with us, and we hope you'll stay tuned for what’s next.
In the meantime, YOU CAN CONTINUE TO ORDER OUR COOKIES ONLINE AND PARTICIPATING STORES, THROUGH THE END OF THIS MONTH (APRIL). Our cookies are FREEZER-FRIENDLY, so feel free to stock up!
With gratitude and full hearts, THANK YOU!
Your Cookie Companions,
Anna & Sol
