Can you provide lab testing or safety certificates?
This is a fair question, and one we appreciate being asked. At this time, Earthy Crunch UK does not offer laboratory testing or food-grade safety certificates for our products. That choice is intentional, and it comes from a commitment to honesty rather than reassurance we cannot responsibly guarantee. What lab testing and certification actually involve Laboratory testing and safety certification are not one-off tick boxes. To be meaningful, they require: Regular, batch-specific laboratory analysis Certified food-grade handling and premises Ongoing documentation and traceability Regulatory oversight and compliance costs Without operating...

What are our clay treats intended for?
Earthy Crunch UK exists to celebrate the sensory experience of clay — its texture, sound, scent and ritual. Our products are not sold as food, supplements or health items. Instead, they’re designed to be explored in ways that feel grounding, intentional and personal. Here’s what that looks like in practice. Sensory play and exploration At their core, our clay treats are sensory objects. Many customers enjoy handling clay simply for how it feels in the hands: breaking it apart, rubbing the surface, tapping it, snapping pieces, or listening to the... Read more...
Are Earthy Crunch UK products food-grade?
Short answer: no. Earthy Crunch UK products are not produced, processed, or tested to food-grade standards, and we do not sell them as food, supplements, or health products. We also do not make any medical, nutritional, or therapeutic claims. That clarity matters — for you, and for us. What “food-grade” actually means In the UK, a food-grade product must meet strict legal requirements. This includes: Certified food-safe premises Documented hygiene and handling processes Regular laboratory testing Traceability and batch records Nutritional labelling and allergen controls Oversight by local authorities and...
