Ghee
GHEE
HONEY
HONEY
Honey has been used for its nutritional value since ancient times. Taking one spoonful every day can have numerous benefits to your health. Use it as a sweetener in your beverages (tea/coffee/smoothies), in sauce recipes, at night before bed or when you have a cold. Especially good for anyone who wants a smokeless experience.
COCO OIL
COCO OIL
Our COCO is organic, unrefined and provides high bioavailability which makes it a great carrier for cannabinoids. Coconut oil helps to boost your immune system, strengthens bones and gums (oil pulling) and reduces inflammation. In the kitchen, it’s a 1:1 vegan replacement for butter and is great for baking and sautéing. You can even use it for topical applications!
EVOO
EVOO
Our first press EVOO is organic and unrefined. A spoonful of extra virgin olive oil has many health benefits. EVOO is high in monounsaturated fats, antioxidants and vitamins, as well as a dietary supplement that does wonders for skin and hair. Use it on hot and cold dishes as a finishing oil or incorporate into your favorite recipes.
GUMMIES
GUMMIES
The GUMMIES are Chef For Higher’s first product and everyone’s favorite! A classic 5-ingredient recipe using kosher beef gelatin and comes in tropical flavors. Trust, you will taste and feel the difference.
JELLIES
JELLIES
It’s like taking a bite of a fruit at peak ripeness. Hand-crafted in small batches, these pectin-based jellies are made with real tropical fruit, no added colors or flavoring. Take care not to eat the whole bag at once, they’re that good!
