About Livia’s

Olivia Wollenberg has allowed us all to say a wholehearted ‘yes’ to indulgent treats all over again. Livia’s takes the most simple ingredients and makes them into the most sublime tasting treats. The idea was born out of her own intolerances that were diagnosed 4 years ago. There was a clear gap in the market for treats that really hit the sweet spot but were made without the ingredients she and so many had to or chose to stay away from. So, she set out to fill this gap and and has done just that. Livia’s now has 4 highly innovative product ranges which are listed in some of the UK’s major retailers.

Our Key Values

Brave – We are ambitious. We want to break boundaries and take sweet snacking way beyond
Genuine - We believe in realness, from our people to our ingredients and the way that we run our business
Vibrant – We use creativity to make the simple into the sublime. We want to change the face of confectionery and show people how to #BetterTreatYourself
Sociable – We are inclusive and make sure that we listen to what the public wants. We want our treats to be accessible and show that everyone should enjoy a treat
