The paradox

CHIPS WITHOUT OIL
YET EXTRA CRISPY

Crunch doesn’t need oil

Beetroot crisps scattered around the edges of the frame

Somewhere along the way, chips became mostly about oil

Pale golden potato crisps scattered around the edges of the frame

We thought vegetables deserved another chance

Orange sweet potato crisps scattered around the edges of the frame

So we changed the way chips are made

Thin allumette crisps scattered around the edges of the frame

No added oil
No deep frying

Dried apple rings scattered around the edges of the frame

Just pure nature and extra crispy

Beyond snacking

FAQ

Wait…
fried in water?

The short, honest answers to the question everyone asks first.

Wait. Fried in water?

Yes. Really.
We replaced the oil with water — and kept everything you love about chips: the taste, the crunch, the pleasure.

Chips without oil?

Exactly. No oil is added during the process.
Just the ingredients you expect — transformed into seriously crispy chips.

Are they really crispy?

Very. That was non-negotiable.
NÜKT is made for a real chip experience — golden, light and satisfyingly crunchy.

How is this possible?

A completely new process makes it possible to create crispy chips using water instead of oil.
Different process. Same crunch.

Are these healthy?

We prefer to talk about what’s actually inside the bag.
NÜKT is made without added oil and with simple ingredients. Less about labels. More about a great chip.

Is this a low-fat chip?

It goes further than that. NÜKT isn’t a traditional chip with a little less oil — we removed added oil from the process altogether.

That’s what makes Fried in Water™ different.

Is this a new category?

That’s exactly what we’re creating.

Not baked. Not air-fried. Not traditional fried chips.

Fried in Water™.

A new way to make chips — and a new kind of crunch.
