About Felio's Free From
Felio's Free From GmbH, operating under the brand 'snice to be free', is a food manufacturer from Vienna that produces fructose-free and lactose-free chocolates and sells them through its own online shop. The company name goes back to the founders Felix Rüsch and Aurelio Nitsche; prompted by an fructose intolerance, the founders jointly developed more than 50 recipe variants until the varieties 'naked', 'Salzmandel' (salted almond) and 'vegan pure coconut' matured into 80-g bars. Chocolate production takes place via a production partner in Vienna, a chef chocolatier who regularly sources cocoa directly from sustainable plantations in Latin America, with a focus on Colombia. According to the manufacturer, the fructose and lactose content is below the laboratory detection limit of 0.1/100. The company was registered as a commercial trade business (FN 549891p, Commercial Court Vienna) and was most recently in liquidation; in September 2026 the chocolate shop was discontinued due to the market situation.
