Company description

Vision

We aim to build a world where clean foods are readily available and highly nutritious and where preservative/additive free foods are common in food production.


Do you know what’s in your food?

There are 5,000 different additives and preservatives that are allowed in our foods, such as sugars and gums. 70% of foods in our grocery stores are highly processed. According to the CDC, six out of ten adults suffer from chronic disease, such as diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. Four out of ten adults have two or more chronic diseases. These chronic diseases can stem from nutrient deficiencies related to a high consumption of non-nutrient dense and processed foods and a poor diet.

 

For Leslie, it became painfully evident that people across all demographics were suffering, and it was largely a result of poor diet and highly processed foods. She became determined to contribute to the healing of people. She became a chef, graduated from Le Cordon Bleu and became a certified Sous Chef at Culinary Institute of America. Her culinary career spans for over 20 years. beginning at Roy’s Restaurant of Roy Yamaguchi and Restaurant Daniel under Daniel Boulud.  Additionally, Chef Leslie has cooked for a wide variety of clients including celebrities and heads of states and was the Executive Chef at the President’s house of Columbia University. After acquiring a degree in Holistic Nutrition, she has supported clients in their healing journey through custom meal plans and cold pressed juice cleanses. Throughout her career, her food philosophy persists: food equals life, as she remains committed to high-end, nutrient dense, clean, and local and seasonal foods.

Chef Leslie created Edenesque to eradicate this American health crisis, and to push back against the way in which our foods are being processed and contribute by creating a company that reflected her philosophy about food, food production and community.

 

Our product line is non-dairy milks: almond, cashew, pistachio and oat.

Edenesque develops clean, whole, nutritious and delicious nut milk products and market them profitably in a socially conscious manner to increasingly health-aware consumers.

 

Our nut and oat milks are made using whole ingredients that support and strengthen bodies without any fillers or additives. We source from sustainable farmers who are building soil health and supporting biodiversity across their landscapes. And we put our community first by making our products accessible in food-insecure neighborhoods and hiring differently abled and justice-impacted team members.
