Collection: WILDTROP

Hello, world! I’m a graphic designer, yogi and food lover. I was born in Brazil and am now a proud East Londoner.

When I was 25, I moved to London to pursue a career in branding and graphic design. It’s here that I lived my most formative years: I worked for some of the top design agencies, I travelled the world, had fun. Lots of fun. Moving to London only fuelled my already existing passion for food: cooking, eating, sharing meals with friends, obsessing with obsessive chefs. I always knew one day I’d do something related to food.

I have always enjoyed eating foods that provoke my taste buds. In 2025, out of a mid-life crisis, I decided to give up alcohol and caffeine, so then I saw myself drawing even more towards spicy and delicious recipes. I get very excited about complex textures, unexpected deep flavours, functional nutrients and nice presentation.

I’m health conscious, but I don’t count calories. And I never compromise on taste. 

One morning, I was preparing a frozen açaí bowl, that I had the idea to make my own granola. I’d already been adding black pepper and chillies to everything I ate or drank, so coming up with a granola with more interesting textures and flavours than the ones available out there and with a unique hot kick to contrast or elevate whatever I had in my bowl, was only the next step. When I started sharing it with the world around me, people's reactions went from flustering to sounding mmmmms, and it’s gratifying to observe people munching on it unstoppably and hear how surprisingly good it tastes. Some say it’s great on its own like a snack.

As 2026 being my 20th year of living in this special city that I chose to call home and helped me be more me, WILDTROP is a love letter to my time in London. So there you go: fun design, bold taste and good life are the 3 main ingredients of WILDTROP.

I hope you enjoy it the same way I enjoy making it. And here’s to the next 20 years!
