Sleep experts formulated Nightfood for guilt-free nighttime snacking with a sleep-friendly nutritional profile.

nighttime snacking with better sleep in mind

Nightfood was formulated by sleep and nutrition experts to bring you a delicious treat that won't kill your diet or wreck your sleep. Nightfood contains no sleep drugs or medications.

  • Delicious Snacking With Guilt-Free Ingredients.

    Satisfy your night cravings while making a better choice. Nightfood ice cream contains on average 70% less sugar, 70% fewer calories, and only 10% of the fat of traditional ice cream.  Nightfood cookies contain 40% less sugar, 90% fewer calories, and 30% less fat than traditional cookies.

  • No Artificial Sweeteners or sugar alcohols

    Say goodnight to that weird sugar substitute aftertaste. Nightfood does not use artificial or sugar alcohol sweeteners.

  • Sleep Supporting Ingredients

    In addition to being generally healthier than traditional snacks, Nightfood snacks contain ingredients and nutrients recommended by our sleep experts specifically for nighttime snacking.   For example, our ice cream contains more tryptophan, calcium, magnesium, and zinc than traditional ice cream.  Our cookies contain added vitamin B6 and inositol.  Both have more protein and prebiotic fiber than traditional snacks.
