Our mission is to make you feel more in tune with your inner hormonal rhythm.

Moonchy girls

We believe that we, women, finally need to understand how hormone fluctuations throughout our monthly cycle affect our bodies and minds.

We aim to challenge the status quo. Rather than treating menstrual cycle as a burden, think of it as a hormonal energy you can leverage every day to live more mindfully.

Nourish and honour your body according to its different needs throughout the cycle. Once you embrace your unique body’s cyclical nature you can flourish every single day.

You can always contact us. When women support each other, great things happen ❤︎

  • I’ve always been passionate about using food as medicine. Once I’ve started listening to my body and nourishing it according to its needs during different phases, I unleashed my own natural healing power. This was when I realised that I want to share my knowledge and help other women experience the same benefits of healthy menstrual cycles.

    As a real chocoholic, it always has been my dream to create a chocolate bar that I could enjoy every day, guilt-free, while supporting my body. Because I truly believe that food shouldn’t only be a fuel but also pure pleasure, I created Moonchy Bars – delicious and healthy bars designed to sync with the feminine cycle and supporting it.

    I hold a master’s degree in strategic entrepreneurship and I strongly believe we need more female founders. Even though startups founded or cofounded by women generate more revenue than the ones founded by male entrepreneurs, women still garner less investments than men. The truth is that female entrepreneurs must contend with a wide range of challenges. Moreover, a lot of women struggle with a lack of confidence and underestimate their capabilities. My dream is that more and more women gain that confidence.

  • At age 24, I lost my period for 1.5 years, making me realise this was a symptom of an eating disorder. After getting my period back in a natural way and sharing my story of recovery in a poetry book (Poems of Recovery - A young girl's path to recovering from an eating disorder and amenorrhea), I was determined to work on showing other people they can also create the life they want.

    I got my yoga teacher training certificate in February 2023, and have been teaching cycle based classes since. As a Moonchy lover, you are always welcome to join a trail class for free.

    When Alex and I met, there was an instant magic between us, and we discovered we both wanted to share the same message with the world - that everyone deserves to feel good in their bodies, and that menstruation should not be something to feel ashamed about, but something to be celebrated and supported. And what is a better way to do this than through amazingly tasty, natural, choc bars?

  • Food scientist/Product Development Expert/Regulatory Specialist with more than 9 years of international experience... and bars lover!

    I love Moonchy bars for their functionality and of course the taste :) As an engineer, I'm a very pragmatic person and it's important to me to deliver excellent nutritional value without compromising on taste, and that's what our bars reflect!

  • Scientist by studies, Entrepreneur by passion. I previously worked in the hospital, where I realised I wanted to make an impact in healthcare.

    Experiencing irregular periods, I understand the struggle and aspire to help empower women.

    Sharing a vision for improving health, and love for food - especially healthy chocolate ;) , I decided to join forces with Moonchy!
