The brand

We believe that health starts in the belly, and it’s time to take care of it. As parents and future parents, we created Minimiil because children’s health is a vital topic that is especially close to our hearts. With Minimiil, we are committed to promoting healthier and more sustainable eating for the well-being of our children and our planet.

For us, Minimiil means a lot!

  • Mini – for kids and our shot format
  • Millions – of probiotics
  • Mini "meal" – a snack or small meal in English
  • Ml – the liquid measure
  • Millennium – for the snack revolution that's coming!

The microbiome is a collection of billions of friendly little bacteria that work day and night for us. These bacteria help us digest food, produce vitamins, and keep our immune system strong to fight off germs. Did you know that the gut microbiome accounts for more than 70% of our immunity? That’s why it’s essential to nourish it properly to stay healthy. Taking care of your microbiome ensures these little bacteria continue to do their job optimally, protecting us from illness and helping us feel good every day.

Several types of microorganisms coexist in our body:

  • Pathogenic bacteria: These are the "bad" bacteria that can cause infections and diseases.
  • Probiotics: These are the "good" bacteria that are beneficial to our health. When consumed in sufficient amounts, they help maintain a healthy balance in our microbiome, promote digestion, strengthen the immune system, and provide various other health benefits.
  • Prebiotics: These are dietary fibers that can ferment in our stomach and serve as food for the good bacteria, including probiotics. By nourishing these beneficial bacteria, prebiotics help maintain a healthy and balanced microbiome.

Fermentation is a natural process that has been used for millennia to preserve food for longer and enrich its nutritional content. Thanks to the action of bacteria naturally present on food, fermentation significantly increases the number of nutrients and even creates new ones. This process is very simple and energy-efficient. It improves digestion, gut health, immunity, mood, and many other aspects of our well-being. By choosing fermented products like Minimiil, you’re offering your child a drink rich in nutrients that’s beneficial for their health!

The products

Minimiil is a creamy, plant-based fermented drink, specially formulated to enrich children’s microbiome. It provides them with essential nutrients—vitamins, minerals, and fiber—that they need to grow strong. A super drink to take care of their health every day!

According to current regulations, in order to use the word "yogurt," the main ingredient must be of animal origin. To make yogurt, animal milk is fermented by microorganisms called probiotics, which are the good bacteria beneficial for the microbiome. Minimiil is exactly the same in the plant-based world! Our super drink uses specific plant-based ferments to enrich children's microbiomes and provide essential nutrients, all while adhering to the legislation.

Minimiil products are real foods, designed to provide a full range of essential nutrients. They are meant to be consumed daily as part of a balanced diet. Dietary supplements, on the other hand, typically target specific deficiencies and offer a different approach to nutrition. They can be taken alongside our drink but should not replace a complete and varied diet.

Minimiil products can be consumed from the age of 3. Our fermented plant-based drinks are specially formulated to meet the nutritional needs of young children while being tasty and enjoyable to drink.

We chose almonds for our drink because they offer many nutritional benefits for children. Among the different seeds used to make plant-based juices – legumes (like soy), oilseeds (like hazelnuts), and cereals (like oats) – almonds stand out due to their richness in nutrients, especially calcium, which is essential for children's growth. Additionally, almonds require a moderate amount of water for cultivation, and their geographic proximity makes them an ecological and wise choice.

Minimiil super-drinks are 100% plant-based and therefore lactose-free, making them ideal for anyone who may be intolerant. However, they do contain tree nuts as we use almonds in their composition.

No, and that’s not going to change. Minimiil is committed to providing healthy and sustainable food for your children. We don’t add any chemical additives to our drinks – no emulsifiers, preservatives, thickeners, or flavors – which makes them more complex to produce but so much better for health! As a result, our products have a recommended consumption date of 25 days, ensuring their freshness and quality.

Practical information

Yes, to ensure the benefits and effectiveness of the probiotics, our products must be kept in the refrigerator. It’s a living drink, and that’s exactly what gives it its superpowers of vitality and protection.

Of course! All of our packaging, including the cardboard, is recyclable and should be placed in the recycling bin. By recycling, you contribute to giving them a second life for making new items. We chose plastic for our bottles because it is less energy-intensive than glass, lighter than metal, more durable than cardboard... and safer for children! Despite common misconceptions, it’s the most responsible choice for us.

You can discover our products on our website, in partner bakeries, gourmet stores, and certain specialty retailers. For added convenience, we also offer a subscription on our site, allowing you to receive our super-drinks directly at your door with just a few clicks.

Our super-drinks will be available starting in April, and don’t worry, we’ll keep you updated regularly. To stay informed, subscribe to our newsletter!

We’d love to say you can change your mind at any time, but the reality is that we prepare your orders ultra-quickly (and our fresh drinks don’t like to wait around). So, canceling is a race against time! If you have any doubts, write to us quickly at hello@minimiil.com, and we’ll do our best. We can’t guarantee anything, but we’ll certainly try!

If you wish to completely cancel your subscription, that’s possible at any time. But be careful, canceling will cause you to lose any accumulated benefits and discounts. If you decide to come back (we hope so!), you’ll need to reconfigure the subscription from scratch.

First, we’re really sorry about that! If your package arrives visibly damaged, the best thing is to refuse the delivery and indicate the reason on the carrier's form (and if you can take a photo, even better).
