Posted 1 day 20 hours ago by Little Moons
Little Moons are bite sized, handheld balls of artisan gelato, cheesecake, and ganache wrapped in a soft and chewy rice flour dough to create a distinctive snack that's bursting with flavour.
Their rollout across Europe has been pioneered by sister and brother duo Vivien and Howard Wong, who founded Little Moons in 2010. The product's roots are in high end restaurants, but over the last six years, retail packs have swept the frozen snacking category in grocery and food service.
Little Moons has rapidly established mochi, and frozen snacking, across Europe. In 2024 we generated more than £60m revenue, and in 2025 we continue to drive towards double digit growth. We are also a Certified B Corporation, which reflects our strong commitment to balancing profit and purpose. This certification means we are part of a global community of businesses that meet high standards of social and environmental impact, reinforcing our dedication to making a meaningful difference.
We are very proud of the culture that we have built at Little Moons. Not to stroke our own egos, but we are a great bunch of people - smart, passionate, interesting, and funny - who work hard to support and live our values, all the while keeping our mission in our forethoughts.
