Supernutural Secures €500,000 Three-Investor Deal on ‘Die Höhle der Löwen’ to Scale Home Nutbooster

The trio’s hands-on backing accelerates Supernutural’s pivot from commercial clients to a consumer rollout.

Overview

  • Founders Amelie and Timo Sperber accepted €500,000 for 10% from Frank Thelen alongside Anne and Stefan Lemcke, with the deal confirmed after broadcast.
  • Frank Thelen and the Lemckes formed an uncommon joint offer on the show, pairing capital with product, marketing and operational support.
  • The Nutbooster makes fresh, additive-free nut cream at home, but its premium pricing of about €1,500 or €39 per month drew pushback from several investors.
  • Ralf Dümmel, Judith Williams and Carsten Maschmeyer declined, citing the high valuation and flat revenue trajectory despite praise for taste and concept.
  • Post-show steps reported by investor sources include a new webshop, a recycled-material Nutbooster Mini and production changes to lower Pro unit costs as the company targets households.
