A Pastry Chef and a Nutritionist Walk Into a Kitchen…
That’s how Soul Grain was born. Sylvia brings the flavor. Liza brings the
function. Together, we dreamed up granola that’s bold, light, and rooted
in culture—granola that finally has some soul.
The Hippest Granola in America!
Our recipes flip tradition on its head—in the best way. We bring soul food flavors
like banana pudding and sweet potato casserole into the granola aisle,
and make them better-for-you without losing the magic.
Every blend is light, crispy, and a celebration of culture, diversity, and joy.
Meet Liza
I’m a Licensed Nutritionist with a passion for food that nourishes both body and mind. With a Master’s in Nutrition and Functional Medicine, a BA in Psychology, and certifications including Dr. Amen’s Brain Health Coach training, I’ve spent over 20 years exploring the powerful connection between what we eat and how we feel.
For me, Soul Grain is more than granola—it’s a way to blend brain health, self-care, and nutrition into something joyful and delicious. As a proud mom of three amazing humans, I’m excited to bring that same energy and purpose into the CPG world with Soul Grain.
Meet Sylvia
I don’t believe in wasting time—or calories—on food that doesn’t make your taste buds dance. That’s exactly how Soul Grain was born. Every recipe I create has to be bold, vibrant, delicious, and rooted in the flavors and stories of our culture. Granola doesn’t have to be boring—it can be soulful.
My journey started early: I earned my cosmetology license at 16, went on to Howard University for a degree in journalism, and eventually followed my heart straight into the kitchen. Culinary school unlocked a 25+ year adventure that’s taken me through restaurants in LA, NY, Anguilla, and DC—where even gourmet icons Dean & DeLuca carried my desserts.
Food has always been my language, my art, and my way of connecting. Today, as a chef, wife, and mom of two, I’m bringing that same passion and creativity to Soul Grain. Every bag is more than granola—it’s a celebration of flavor, culture, and joy.
Good Vibes Great Flavor
Music keeps our soul in motion. These are the sounds that inspire our flavor, our flow, and our community. Hit play and feel the groove.
"We blended our interests and talents to come up with very interesting granola flavors rooted in our diverse backgrounds."
