WTC Dublin Member Highlight: Miena’s Handmade Nougats

Co. Wicklow

Created in the Glen of Imaal , surrounded by lush Irish countryside, Miena started something new. Inspired by nature – bees making honey, fresh ingredients and nothing artificial – Miena’s kitchen specialises in nature’s goodness. Her love for simplicity and all things good are family values she holds dear. Honey, cranberry and pistachio-green colours are reflected in her logo that depicts her energy and determination. Timeless recipes were tweaked with a fusion of South African, Irish and continental influences. The result is something unique. Miena’s hands make all her nougat in a specially designed nougat kitchen. Miena has had her kitchen certified gluten-free and this means all her products are coeliac friendly. The balance of her ingredients ensures undulating sweetness, fresh almonds and pistachio nuts and berries – a comforting soft consistency. This choice blend comes from hours of Miena’s effort, combining her ideas with uncompromising, passionate attention to quality.
