THE WORLD FIRST soda made from surplus bread

KRAST is a healthy probiotic & postbiotic soda made from rescued bread. It’s gently sparkling, refreshing, and good for your gut — with no added preservatives or sugar.

Yes! We use dry, clean surplus bread that would otherwise go to waste. We process it safely into a natural base, then ferment it naturally into a delicious drink.

Absolutely. Krast is produced using a safety protocol that allows us to use surplus bread as a raw material for production. We never use moldy or spoiled bread. Only clean, dry surplus bread is used!

Light, fizzy, and slightly fruity! For now we have two flavours. Each flavour — Cherry Vibe and Strawberry Sparkle — has its own unique taste and a refreshing finish.
We have more than 5 other flavours developed for B2B cooperation, together with our Upcycled bread Base. Contact us if you're interested in producing bread-based drink for your own brand.

Probiotics are live “good bacteria” that help your gut stay healthy. We have added to each Strawberry Sparkle can 1 billion CFUs (colony-forming units) of live cultures with documented positive effects on the gut microbiota. They support normal digestion, immunity, and overall gut health. Every flavour of KRAST has also active postbiotics: lactic acid, bacteriocins, short-chain fatty acids (SCFA). Postbiotics are non-viable probiotic bacteria and beneficial compounds produced by these bacteria, sourced from fermented bread.

Yes — KRAST supports your gut microbiota and overall well-being. It’s made with natural ingredients and no added preservatives. Krast contains only naturally occuring sugars (no sweeteners).

Only our Cherry Vibe flavour does — it gives a gentle, natural energy boost (14,7 mg per 100 ml). It’s recommended for adults or older teens. Other flavours are caffeine-free.

KRAST is pasteurised, so you can Keep it out of fridge in a cool, dry place. Best served chilled before opening. Once opened, store it in the fridge and drink within a few days for the best taste and freshness.

KRAST is completely plant-based! Because it’s made from bread, it does contain gluten — so it’s not suitable for gluten-sensitive people.

KRAST is a non-alcoholic drink — it contains less than 0.5% alcohol. In the fermentation process, we use probiotic bacteria that do not produce alcohol. They convert surplus bread into beneficial organic acids.

“Upcycled” means we give a new life to surplus bread that would otherwise be wasted. Instead of throwing it away, we transform it into something valuable — your drink.

KRAST is smoother and less acidic than kombucha and less sweet than kvass or other sweet sodas, with balanced flavour and gut-friendly benefits. Many healthy sodas undergo high-temperature pasteurisation, which kills good bacteria. At Strawberry Sparkle, we use special bacterial cultures that survive pasteurisation, so all the beneficial bacteria are still in the can when you open it! It’s also the world’s first soda made from surplus bread!
