ABBOTSFORD, BC — On a mission to deliver consumers low-carb bread and bakery products with superior taste and texture, Carbonaut is now the #1 selling Keto-Certified bread brand in the U.S. Natural space and is the #1 selling Keto-Certified bread brand in Canada.1 Spurred by consumer demand the brand has rapidly expanded since its launch just one year ago, introducing 13 new SKUs, including its original White and Seeded Loaves in both Original and Gluten-Free varieties, Hamburger and Hot Dog Buns and now, its latest innovations, Gluten-Free Bagels and Gluten-Free Pizza Crust.
Carbonaut entered the low/no-carb category as consumers are increasingly seeking more low-carb options, as evidenced by the growing popularity of the keto diet. In fact, according to Mintel, 37% of consumers currently consume food and drinks with low/no-carb claims.2
