A couple of weeks ago after making a purchase of Cosi Pets Milk (my cat loves it, and my hamsters get it mixed with a bit of oatmeal), I suddenly noticed that it's manufactured by Harvey Fresh- who also has a range for humans (this sounds really odd haha). So I decided to head to NTUC Fairprice and purchase a box of Harvey Fresh Lactose-Free Full Cream Milk to compare and see whether I could find any differences.

Xylitol is a common artificial sweetener found in human food and snacks.

Hi everyone! I rarely have the time to sit and write, which is something I absolutely love to do. But I have a couple of hours to spare, and since our range of cakes are launching soon, I thought this would be a good entry for me to share why I made the decision for all our cakes to be gluten and wheat-free :) Before any of our products are released, thorough research is done. Aside from making sure we use quality ingredients, we speak to different veterinarians and seek their opinions on our products, and there have been many...
