Angela and Nivi are I AM NUT OK, an American and Italian couple that carefully crafts all the products in Hackney, London.

The business started as a passion project of Angela’s to create tasty alternatives for the newly vegan Nivi who was an Italian struggling to give up cheese. Using their diverse palates, love for cheese, and design backgrounds, they teamed up to start I AM NUT OK so they could share their delicious creations.

We aim to create products that make the mouth water. Addictive like cheese, but even better. I AM NUT OK is more daring than dairy, using inventive visual and flavour combinations. It’s not meant to replace cheese, but to satisfy the tastebuds in the way any delicious food should.

We use a mix of traditional and new techniques to create our plant-based cheeses, which are produced by hand in small batches. Our 'not cheeses' go through a process of fermentation and ageing, then given extra notes of flavour with herbs, spices, and various tasty gems found in the plant kingdom.
