Founded in 2008

For as long as she can remember, French Squirrel A.K.A. Sydney has always been passionate about food and cooking. In an attempt to rediscover her love for food after falling trap to the often-obsessive health food world, she began her food blog, @french.squirrel.

Inspired by her late French grandmother and her time living in Bordeaux, she began sharing her meals, recipes and favorite restaurants.

What started out as just a food Instagram, has now turned into a business, with her first product, @frenchsquirrel.co Berets- nutrient-dense, vegan and gluten-free refrigerated protein bites coated in 100% pure, organic chocolate.

Sydney is a Certified Hormone Specialist, specializing in blood sugar management and female health through a nutrition perspective.

After experiencing hormone imbalances, she discovered a natural and holistic approach to heal her hormones through diet, exercise, and powerful adaptogens and herbs.

What we do

Made with organic ingredients – vegan & gluten-free too!  Berets are nutrient-dense protein bites made with organic, plant-based ingredients, dipped in 100% pure unsweetened chocolate, topped with flakey sea salt, and formed in the shape of the famous, French hats, Berets.

We use 100% pure organic unsweetened cacao (not cocoa). Choosing the highest quality cacao is very important to us – we never use gums, emulsifiers, or gmos. Cacao in its most raw form with no added sugar, it is truly diabetic-friendly.
