Question 1

Where do you source your ingredients?

Accepted Answer

Our Himalayan pink salt is sourced from the Khewra Salt Mine in Pakistan — one of the oldest and largest salt mines in the world. Our seasonings are blended from spices carefully selected from trusted suppliers.

Question 2

Are your products suitable for vegans and vegetarians?

Accepted Answer

Our salt and seasonings are made without animal-derived ingredients in the declared recipe. Please check each product’s ingredient list and allergen advice before purchase, as products may contain traces of allergens from shared facilities.

Question 3

Do you offer free UK delivery?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer free standard UK delivery on all orders over £35. Orders under £35 are charged £3.99 for standard delivery. Standard delivery typically arrives in 3–5 working days. We deliver only within the United Kingdom.

Question 4

How should I store the product to keep it fresh?

Accepted Answer

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and steam. Our resealable packaging helps preserve aroma and flavour after opening. For best results, use within 12 months of opening.

Question 5

Is your Himalayan pink salt iodised?

Accepted Answer

No — our Himalayan pink salt is unrefined and not iodised. It naturally contains over 80 trace minerals including iron, calcium, magnesium and potassium, which give it its distinctive pink hue and rounded flavour.

Question 6

What makes Himalayan salt pink?

Accepted Answer

The pink colour comes from trace minerals — primarily iron oxide — present in the ancient salt deposits formed over 250 million years ago. These same minerals give Himalayan pink salt its complex, less harsh saltiness compared to refined table salt.

Question 7

Is Himalayan pink salt better than table salt?

Accepted Answer

Himalayan pink salt is less processed than typical UK table salt, contains no anti-caking agents, and delivers a cleaner flavour. Both are roughly 98% sodium chloride, so use it the same way you would table salt — most cooks find they need a touch less because of the cleaner taste.

Question 8

How much Himalayan pink salt should I use per day?

Accepted Answer

The UK NHS recommends adults consume no more than 6g of salt per day (around one teaspoon). Himalayan pink salt counts towards this limit — its mineral content is too small to change daily intake guidance.
