Ingredients:
1 ½ cups brown rice flour
3 tablespoons good quality almond or peanut butter
3 organic eggs
1 tablespoons flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons water
½ cup coconut oil
1 cup sweet potato or butternut squash puree
3 tablespoons of powdered organic egg shell (this is a fantastic way to make a natural calcium supplement for your dog. Simply place empty egg shells in boiling water to clean and allow to dry over night then place in processor and blend into fine power, simple!)
Method:
Preheat oven to 180°c
Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl eventually forming a dough
Take some of the dough and roll between two sheets of parchment paper
Gently use your cookie cutter to shape and cut out your treats (I find using a larger shape and less intricate cutter works best)
Place the dough shapes onto a lined backing tray and cook for 15-18 minutes in batches
Let cool completely before serving to tail wagging poochie!

]]>On November 1st, we encourage you to roll up your sleeves, grab that mixing bowl and treat your four-legged friend to something special for National Cook for your Pet Day. Baking biscuits to scrumptious scooby snacks, the pawsibilities are endless and we have some fantastic recipes to share to bake your dog something delicious this November.
Our Baking History
Here at Soopa, we have a lot to thank our humble baking bliss for the success of our brilliant business. Before the brand was born, Barbara Hanly (Soopa’s founder) spent time in the kitchen relentlessly trying to create recipes that both her dog Lily and the dogs she would come into contact with in her grooming business would love and enjoy. Barbara began to notice that she would see so many dogs suffering from obesity, diabetes and skin related illness just from the food and treats they were eating and wanted to make a change.
Donning her apron and mixing bowl in hand, Barbara created wholesome, healthy and delicious recipes of tasty treats and before she knew it the blissful brand of Soopa was born. Made with 100% human grade ingredients and free from artificial flavourings, additives and nastiness, it really was baking that made Soopa the brand that it is today.
Cooking for your Canine
Blast on some music, grab your rolling pin and enjoy an afternoon of taste testing some scrumptious snacks with your four-legged friend. Creating homemade dog treats can have significant benefits for your furry friend as you can manage exactly what ingredients your pet is eating. With fruit and vegetables packing pawfuls of immune boosting goodness in the colder weather, help fight off colds and flu in your dog with some tasty treats featuring carrot, pumpkin and even some leafy greens.
If your dog suffers from skin related allergies to grains and wheat, creating treats specifically for them using wholesome and natural ingredients can help contribute to a better and healthier looking coat and keeps those irritating itches at bay.
Our Ravishing Recipes
Barbara’s baking bliss has never really disappeared since creating the company. Designing new recipes every month so that you and your furry friend can try something exciting from the comfort of your own home is what the heart of Soopa is all about. When it comes to our four-legged friend, we believe natural is best.
From calcium crunchies to homemade pumpkin spice lattes, the possibilities are endless of what you could create for your pooch and have some of your own baking bliss this autumn.
]]>Pumpkin is great for digestive health as it is an excellent source of fibre. It helps with diarrhoea and constipation. Fibre is also great for weight loss as it keeps your pet fuller for longer and adds some natural additional flavour to otherwise bland diet foods.
Pumpkin is also rich in nutrients such as fatty acids, antioxidants, vitamin A, beta carotene, potassium and iron, all which help contribute to cancer prevention.
