Our story
From Ethiopia to little hands everywhere.
I grew up in Ethiopia, where teff has nourished families for generations. Years later, my work in healthcare deepened my belief that the beginning of life deserves thoughtful food made with care.
I created Toto Melts to introduce this remarkable grain to little hands everywhere through a simple, modern snack rooted in Ethiopian heritage.
Today, Toto Melts has moved beyond concept stage. We developed the core formula direction with third-party food commercialization support, completed university pilot work, and are now preparing for first production with the right manufacturing partner.
The grain that fed a civilization, made for the next generation.
The grain
Carried through generations.
Teff is one of the world's oldest cultivated grains, harvested across the Ethiopian highlands long before it reached the rest of the world. It is tiny, thousands of seeds to a single handful, and known for naturally occurring iron, calcium, fiber, and plant protein.
We transform it into light, airy sticks that melt gently for little ones, honoring the grain exactly as it has always been: simple, whole, and nourishing.
From our family to yours.
Thoughtfully made for little hands and early eaters.
