When the world thought we were crazy, we bucked the anti-fat trend and pioneered the first national brand of Pasture-Raised cooking fats. Fat had been maligned and marginalized for decades, but we knew the science was wrong. As the original anti-seed oil "Defenders of Fat," we've spent 15 years championing what study after study now confirms: real fat is not only natural but essential for a healthy lifestyle. Fatworks is a husband and wife team of David and Mieke Cole, with a mission to restore nutrient-rich, traditional animal fats to their rightful place in kitchens and homes. Fatworks was born in 2011 when we recognized that lifestyles like Paleo and Keto needed a fat brand they could trust. From the start, we've partnered with farmers committed to ethical practices, sustainability, and humane treatment of animals. By sourcing premium-quality, organic, and pasture-raised animal fats, we've created a line of minimally processed, pure fats that reflect ancestral wisdom while meeting modern standards of excellence. Education, transparency, and craftsmanship have driven us from day one. Our perfected wet-rendering process ensures every jar of Fatworks delivers exceptional purity, flavor, and nutritional benefits. Whether you're frying, roasting, baking, or crafting candles and skincare, our fats elevate your creations and inspire healthier, more flavorful living. What began as a small idea has grown into a community-driven brand beloved by chefs, food enthusiasts, and wellness advocates. As Paleo-friendly pioneers, we take pride in helping people rediscover the joy of cooking with fats that nourish both body and planet. Our story is one of revival, resilience, and passion—a testament to the belief that traditional wisdom and modern values can coexist beautifully. At Fatworks, we're not just making fats; we're redefining them, one Fat-tastic jar at a time.
