Who said snacking has to be boring? While we at FourThirty provide a host of varieties in terms of products and flavours, we decided- why not make it more fun with fusion snacks! After all, the most memorable snacks often come from creative flavour combinations that spark your taste buds. What's important is to stick to clean and nutritious combinations while experimenting. So what could be the result of a fusion of our favourite Indian snacks with global influences? Let's find out.

Vegan Healthy Snacks for Everyone
Many fusion snacks can be easily adapted into vegan healthy snacks. For example, swapping dairy-based sauces with plant-based yogurt or nut-based cheeses can make your snack suitable for vegans without compromising on taste. At FourThirty, we’re always experimenting with innovative recipes that cater to a range of dietary preferences.
Making Fusion Snacking Part of Your Routine
-
Stock Up on Spices and Combos: Keep a variety of spices in your pantry—cumin, paprika, turmeric, oregano, and several others along that can seamlessly be combined with any of these snack items.
-
Experiment in Small Batches: It's important to consider that everyone has a different taste palette. If you’re unsure about a flavour combo, try a small portion first.
-
Incorporate Fresh Elements: Fresh herbs like mint, basil, and coriander alongside fresh fruits and vegetables like cucumber to balance out the primarily savoury textures.
-
Play With the Temperature: Whether its warming up that milk to combine with a snack or using chilled ingredients like cold yogurt, the customisations level-up by choosing a temperature level that's right for you.
-
Make it Portable: Prep fusion snacks that you can carry with you anywhere, whether it's for work or travel.
