Our Story · Est. Canberra 2004

Bold by name. RAD by nature.

Twenty years ago, one stubborn recipe and a market stall started something. This is the story of the little Canberra muesli that refused to be boring — and the people who make it by hand, every single week.

YEARS CRAFTING

The story behind RAD

It started with one good bowl.

Back in 2004, Dave Noble couldn’t find a muesli he actually wanted to eat. Everything on the shelf was either dusty and joyless or drowning in sugar. So he did the obvious thing: he made his own — real oats, four kinds of nuts, 33% rolled barley, and absolutely no shortcuts.

He took it to the Canberra farmers markets on a Saturday morning. It sold out. Then it sold out again. Word travelled the way good things do — one happy bowl at a time — until RAD was shipping across the country to people who’d never set foot in Canberra.

Two decades on, we still handcraft every batch the same stubborn way. Bigger kitchen, same recipe, same rule: possibly the greatest muesli ever made, or it doesn’t leave the building.

WHY CHOOSE RAD

The RAD difference is real.

No marketing fluff — just the things we refuse to compromise on, batch after batch after batch.

Handcrafted, always

Every batch is made by hand in Canberra — never mass-produced, never outsourced. If it’s not RAD enough, it doesn’t ship.

Real ingredients

Four premium nuts, 33% rolled barley, seeds, sun-dried fruit and a hidden fibre boost. Mostly Australian. No added cane sugar.

Slow-release energy

That 33% rolled barley isn’t for show — it’s genuine, long-lasting morning fuel that keeps you going well past the school run.

20+ years earned

Two decades at the Canberra markets built a loyal following the honest way — by being genuinely good, weekend after weekend.

Nutrition that hides

Omega-3, phytonutrients and fibre baked right in — the good stuff, without the lecture. It just happens to taste incredible.

Shipped fresh

Packed to order and sent Australia-wide, with free shipping over $60. From our kitchen to your bowl, at its best.

OUR MISSION

Make breakfast worth waking up for.

To prove that something genuinely good for you can also be bold, exciting and a little bit irreverent. We make muesli the way it should be made — by hand, with real ingredients — so the healthiest part of your day is also the tastiest.

OUR VISION

The greatest muesli, everywhere.

Born at a Canberra market stall, eaten across Australia — and one day, well beyond. We want RAD in every pantry that’s tired of boring cereal, without ever losing the handcrafted soul that got us here.

GOOD QUESTIONS

Questions we actually get asked.

Is RAD Muesli really handmade?

Yes — every batch is handcrafted in our Canberra kitchen. We’ve scaled the kitchen over 20 years, but never the shortcuts. Same recipe, same hands-on process.

RAD contains rolled oats and barley, so it is not gluten-free. It’s made in a kitchen that handles tree nuts and gluten — please check the ingredients panel if you have an allergy.

Because we pack to order, your muesli arrives fresh. Stored in an airtight container somewhere cool and dry, a bag stays at its best for several months — though it rarely lasts that long.

We do — anywhere in Australia. Shipping is a flat $9.95, and it’s free on orders over $60. Orders are dispatched within 1–2 business days.

Absolutely — that’s where it all began. Find us Saturdays at EPIC and Sundays at Southside. Come say g’day and grab a bag straight from Dave.
