Company Overview:

At Eve's Crackers we are on a mission to make healthy eating more fun, approachable and, of course yummy! We make crackers that are gluten free, vegan, keto and high in fibre from the goodness of Canadian flaxseed. Our crackers are satisfyingly crunchy and deliciously savoury. 

Eve developed Eve’s Crackers in her home kitchen because there was nothing at the grocery store that fit her dietary needs. Eve was suffering from eczema and was determined to heal her skin through the power of her food choices. In cutting out gluten, dairy, nuts, sugar and corn Eve was not left with many snack options so she took matters into her own hands and created Eve’s Crackers. 

Since launching in farmers’ markets in 2016 Eve’s has grown distribution across Canada. Eve’s are available in 800 locations across Canada and counting. We are a small but mighty team passionate about sharing our yummy product, growing our community and shaking up the cracker aisle one bag of Eve’s at a time!
