You can call me Nani!
Hi! My name is Claudilane, but you can call me Nani!
- I was born and raised in Brazil until I moved to America in 2000. After years in Florida, my family and I moved to West Michigan in 2017—and that is where the idea for Nani Girl Snacks finally came to life.
- Growing up, cassava was a staple of my daily life. It’s a nutty, crunchy root that carries so many of my most precious childhood memories.
- When I realized how hard it was to find authentic, healthy cassava-based snacks here in America, I knew I had to change that. I wanted to share a piece of my story and my culture with you—one crunch at a time.
- I hope you enjoy Cassie Puffs as much as I enjoy making them! They are more than just a snack; they are handcrafted with love, right here in the Downtown Market Incubator Kitchen.
Beijo, (Kisses)
