A Guide to Honey: Manuka, Floral Varieties and How to Choose
A Guide to Honey: Manuka, Floral Varieties and How to ChooseBy Agi Kaja - 09/07/2026

Honey is one of the oldest foods we know, and it is also one of the most varied. Open a few jars side by side and you will find colours ranging from pale gold to deep amber, and flavours that shift from delicate and floral to rich and almost treacle-like. That variety is no accident. Every honey carries the character of the flowers the bees visited to make it, which is why no two types taste quite the same. Here is a friendly guide to the main kinds of honey, what makes Manuka so special, and how to pick the right jar for you. Why honey tastes so different The flavour, colour and texture of any honey come down to one thing: the flowers. Bees gather nectar from whatever is blooming nearby, and the type of blossom shapes the finished honey. As a rule, the paler the honey, the milder and more delicate the taste, while darker honeys tend to be stronger and more robust. The season, the region and even the weather all play a part, which is what makes honey such a fascinating natural product. Honey generally falls into two broad camps. Blossom honey, sometimes called multifloral, is made from the nectar of many different flowers and offers a rounded, classic honey flavour. Single-flower honey, known as monofloral, comes mostly from one type of blossom and has a more distinctive character all of its own. Popular floral honeys Some of the best-loved honeys are named after the flower that defines them. Acacia honey is very pale and mild, with a light, almost syrupy sweetness that makes it a favourite for drizzling and for sweetening drinks without overpowering them. Orange blossom honey carries a gentle citrus note and a fragrant aroma. Wildflower honey, gathered from a mix of meadow blooms, changes with the seasons and gives you a true taste of the local landscape. At the deeper end of the scale, heather honey is thick, amber and full-bodied, with a bold flavour that stands up well on toast or alongside cheese. Chestnut honey is darker still, with a rich, slightly bitter edge that many people come to love. Part of the joy of honey is exploring these differences and finding the ones you keep coming back to. What makes Manuka honey special No honey has captured attention quite like Manuka. It comes from the nectar of the Manuka bush, which grows in New Zealand, and it has a thick texture and a distinctive, earthy flavour that sets it apart from lighter floral honeys. Manuka's real claim to fame is a natural compound called methylglyoxal, or MGO for short. You will see MGO ratings printed on the jar, and the higher the number, the greater the concentration of this compound. A honey labelled MGO 100+ is milder, while higher ratings such as 250+ are prized and priced accordingly. You may also see the letters UMF, which stands for Unique Manuka Factor, another grading system used to show quality and authenticity. Because genuine Manuka is highly sought after, it pays to buy from a trusted source and to look for a clear MGO or UMF rating on the label. If you would like to explore it, our range includes options from everyday Manuka honey at MGO 40 up to a stronger Manuka honey at MGO 250+, so you can start gently or go for a more intense jar. Raw, set and runny honey Beyond the flower, you will also see honey described by how it has been processed and how it looks. Raw honey is minimally filtered and not heated to high temperatures, so it keeps more of its natural character. Runny honey is smooth and pourable, perfect for drizzling, while set or crystallised honey has a thick, spreadable texture that many people love on toast. Crystallisation is completely natural and is not a sign that anything is wrong. A gentle warm-water bath will loosen a set honey again if you prefer it runny. Choosing the right honey for you The best honey is really a matter of taste and how you plan to use it. For sweetening tea or drizzling over yoghurt and porridge, a mild, pale honey such as acacia or a light blossom honey works beautifully. For baking and cooking, a good all-rounder blossom honey does the job without costing a fortune. If you enjoy a bold flavour on toast or with cheese, reach for a darker honey like heather. And if you are curious about Manuka, start with a lower MGO rating and work your way up. One thing to keep in mind: honey is a natural sugar, so it is best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. It should also never be given to babies under one year old. A jar worth savouring From the palest acacia to the boldest Manuka, honey is a reminder of just how much variety nature packs into a single ingredient. Every jar tells the story of a particular place, season and set of flowers. Try a few, notice how different they taste, and you will soon discover which honeys deserve a permanent spot in your cupboard.

Plant Protein Powders for Bakeries, Cafes and Food Producers
Plant Protein Powders for Bakeries, Cafes and Food ProducersBy Agi Kaja - 23/06/2026

High-protein has moved from the gym bag to the menu board. Customers want protein in their muffins, their morning oats, their grab-and-go bars, and they want it without dairy. If you run a bakery, a cafe, or a food production line, a good plant protein powder is a simple way to add that without reworking your whole recipe book. Here are five single-ingredient, organic powders, what each one does in real food, and how to buy them in volume. What to look for in a baking protein Three things matter once you start cooking with protein powder rather than just shaking it in water. Density tells you how much actual protein you are adding per gram, which matters when you are making a nutrition claim on a label. Flavour decides whether the powder disappears into the recipe or takes it over. And behaviour in the bowl matters most of all, because protein powder absorbs liquid and changes texture, so you usually swap it in for a portion of the flour rather than adding it on top. A safe starting point is to replace 10 to 20 percent of the flour by weight, then add a little extra liquid or fat to keep the crumb soft. Test, taste, adjust. 1. Organic Pea Protein, 85 percent The workhorse for food production. At 85 percent protein it lets you make a strong nutrition claim with the smallest amount of powder, and its neutral, slightly earthy flavour blends into both sweet and savoury formulas. It is the natural base for high-protein breads, bars and even plant-based meat alternatives. Because it is so concentrated, go gently on the substitution rate and watch your hydration, as it will dry a mix out faster than the lower-density seed proteins. 2. Organic Rice Protein, 80 percent Smooth, fine and mildly sweet, brown rice protein has a soft texture that suits lighter, fruitier bakes and works well in cafe smoothies and overnight oats. On its own it is a little low in lysine, but paired with pea protein it gives a complete amino acid profile, which is the trick for vegan products that need to stand up nutritionally. Easy to digest, which is a selling point worth putting on the menu. 3. Organic Pumpkin Seed Protein, 60 percent This one brings character. Cold milled from pumpkin seeds, it has a deep, nutty flavour that shines in darker, heartier products, think seeded loaves, savoury muffins, chocolate or banana bakes, and energy balls. It also carries natural iron, magnesium and zinc, so it adds genuine nutritional depth you can talk about, not just a protein number. 4. Organic Hemp Seed Protein, 50 percent A complete protein in a single ingredient, with all nine essential amino acids, plus fibre and plant-based omega-3 and omega-6. The earthy, nutty taste is made for rustic, wholesome ranges, wholegrain loaves, flapjacks, oat bakes. Lower density than the isolates, so it is more of a wholefood addition than a pure protein hit, which suits a craft or artisan positioning. 5. Organic Sunflower Seed Protein, 50 percent The allergen-friendly all-rounder. Free from nuts, soya, dairy and gluten, it is the safe choice for schools, nurseries, and any venue catering to allergies. The mild, smooth flavour blends into almost anything, from breads and flapjacks to protein bars, which makes it the most flexible powder here for a broad menu. The formulator's trick: pea plus rice Pea protein is high in lysine but lower in methionine. Brown rice protein is the reverse. Combine them, roughly two parts pea to one part rice, and you get a complete amino acid profile comparable to whey. For any vegan product where you want to claim quality protein, this blend is the industry-standard answer. Menu and product ideas For cafes: protein-boosted overnight oats and porridge, smoothies and shakes, energy balls and protein bites by the till, and a higher-protein muffin or banana bread in the cabinet. For bakeries: seeded protein loaves, flapjacks, protein cookies and bars. For producers: high-protein snack formulations, breakfast products, and plant-based meat alternatives where pea protein does the heavy lifting. Buying in bulk All five are available from 250g pouches for recipe testing right up to bulk sacks for production, so you can trial a product before you commit to volume. Bulk pricing as a guide: Pea and Rice protein in 20kg sacks from around £305 to £317, and Pumpkin, Hemp and Sunflower in 25kg sacks from around £359 to £415. That works out to a low cost per gram of protein, especially for the high-density pea and rice options. Get in touch for trade and wholesale enquiries. Whether you want maximum protein with a neutral taste (pea), a soft texture for lighter bakes (rice), a nutty mineral boost (pumpkin), a wholefood complete protein (hemp), or an allergen-free all-rounder (sunflower), there is a powder here to build a menu around. All five are certified organic and single ingredient, which keeps your own ingredient list clean and your story simple. Always test recipes at scale and check each product's specification and allergen information before using it in commercial production.

The Physics of the Melt: Pure Cacao Butter
The Physics of the Melt: Pure Cacao ButterBy Agi Kaja - 13/04/2026

Whether it is the satisfying "snap" of a dark chocolate bar or the way a rich body butter sinks into your skin, you are experiencing the unique molecular physics of cocoa butter. Known botanically as the fat of the Theobroma cacao (literally "Food of the Gods"), cacao butter is one of the most stable and highly prized fats on Earth. At Whole Foods Earth, we believe in using it in its most natural state. To understand why, we need to look at the chemistry that happens at 34°C. A Biological Miracle: The Melting Point Cocoa butter is fascinating because it is a solid at room temperature (20°C) but melts almost instantly at body temperature (37°C). This isn't a coincidence; it is due to its specific triglyceride composition. It is primarily made of three fatty acids: Stearic, Palmitic, and Oleic. Because these molecules are arranged in a very tidy, crystalline structure, they hold their shape firmly until they hit the magic threshold of the human touch. This is why real chocolate doesn't feel "greasy"—it only releases its flavour the moment it hits your tongue. The Stearic Acid Factor: A Different Kind of Saturated Fat In the UK, we are often told to be wary of saturated fats. However, science shows that not all saturated fats are created equal. The Truth: Cocoa butter is high in Stearic Acid. Unlike other saturated fats, the liver quickly converts stearic acid into Oleic Acid (the same heart-healthy fat found in olive oil). The Result: This makes pure cocoa butter a much more neutral fat in terms of cholesterol when compared to animal fats or chemically altered vegetable oils. Polymorphism: The Art of the "Snap" Have you ever seen chocolate that has turned white or crumbly? That is a failure of polymorphism. Cocoa butter can crystallise into six different shapes. Scientists and master chocolatiers aim for "Form V". This specific crystal structure is what gives cocoa butter its glossy sheen and that famous "snap." When cocoa butter is poorly handled or subjected to temperature swings, it shifts into Form VI, causing the fat to "bloom" (the white streaks). This doesn't mean it's gone bad; it just means the crystals have moved! Raw vs. Deodorised: Why the Smell Matters If you buy standard supermarket cocoa butter, it is often white and odourless. This is deodorised cocoa butter. To achieve this, the fat is treated with high heat and often chemical solvents to strip away the "chocolate" smell. At Whole Foods Earth, we advocate for Raw, Unrefined Cocoa Butter. Retention of Polyphenols: Raw cocoa butter is a pale yellow colour because it still contains the plant's natural antioxidants and Vitamin E. The Aroma: It smells like a bar of dark chocolate because the aromatic compounds haven't been "boiled" away. Skin Bioavailability: For skincare, unrefined cocoa butter retains its natural moisture-sealing properties without the need for synthetic perfumes or fillers. A Versatile Tool for a Healthy Lifestyle Because of its stability (it has a shelf life of 2 to 5 years), cocoa butter is a staple for a "clean" pantry and bathroom: In the Kitchen: Use it to make your own "raw" chocolates or add it to smoothies for a slow-release energy source that doesn't spike your insulin. In the Bathroom: It is a "barrier" fat. It doesn't just sit on top of the skin; it forms a protective layer that prevents Transepidermal Water Loss (TEWL), which is essential during the dry UK winter months. Beyond the Myth Cocoa butter isn't a "magic" stretch mark cure or a "superfood" miracle—it is a stable, highly efficient plant fat that works in harmony with human biology. Whether you are eating it or wearing it, the science is clear: the less you process it, the better it works. Cacao vs. Cocoa: Is it the same thing? To clarify a common point of confusion in the UK health aisles: biologically, cacao and cocoa butter are the same thing. Both are the pure fat extracted from the seeds of the Theobroma cacao tree. However, in the world of nutrition and labelling, the choice of word tells you everything about the processing temperature. Cacao vs. Cocoa: The Heat Factor Cacao Butter: Usually refers to the "raw" version. The fat is extracted via cold-pressing the beans. By keeping the temperature below 45°C, the delicate antioxidants and live enzymes remain intact. This is the version we prioritise at Whole Foods Earth because it is the most chemically complete. Cocoa Butter: Typically refers to beans that have been roasted at high temperatures before the fat is extracted. While this creates a deeper, more "toasted" chocolate aroma, the high heat can degrade some of the more sensitive phytonutrients. In short: if you see "Cacao," you are buying a product that has been handled with biological preservation in mind; if you see "Cocoa," you are likely buying a product processed for flavour and mass-market shelf stability.

5 Natural Alternatives to Refined Sugar for British Bakers
5 Natural Alternatives to Refined Sugar for British BakersBy Agi Kaja - 31/03/2026

Whether it's a rainy Tuesday afternoon tea or a full-blown Sunday showstopper, we Brits take our baking seriously. But as we become more mindful of what we put into our bodies, many of us are looking to ditch the "white stuff." Refined sugar provides sweetness but very little else. Fortunately, nature has provided a pantry-full of alternatives that not only satisfy your sweet tooth but also bring deep caramel notes, moisture, and even a little extra nutrition to your bakes. If you're ready to upgrade your kitchen cupboard, here are five natural alternatives to refined sugar that you can find right here at Whole Food Earth. 1. Organic Coconut Sugar: The 1-to-1 Hero If you're new to natural baking, Organic Coconut Sugar is your best friend. Made from the sap of the coconut palm, it has a gorgeous, deep scent reminiscent of toasted caramel or butterscotch. Why bakers love it: Unlike liquid sweeteners, coconut sugar has a similar texture to brown sugar. You can usually swap it in a 1-to-1 ratio for white or brown sugar in most recipes. Best for: Chewy cookies, flapjacks, and coffee cakes. Top Tip: It doesn't dissolve quite as quickly as white sugar, so give your butter and "sugar" mixture an extra minute of whisking to get it nice and smooth. 2. Date Sugar: The "Whole Food" Winner Technically, Date Sugar isn't "sugar" at all—it's simply dried, pitted dates that have been ground into a fine powder. This makes it the ultimate choice for those who want to keep their ingredients as close to the earth as possible. Why bakers love it: Because it's made from the whole fruit, it retains the fibre and minerals found in the date. This means it doesn't cause the same aggressive "sugar spike" as refined varieties. Best for: Adding to porridge, crumbles, and dense loaves like banana bread. Top Tip: Since it is ground fruit, it doesn't melt or dissolve. Avoid using it in delicate sponges or meringues where a smooth texture is vital. 3. Erythritol: The Low-Calorie Choice For those watching their calorie intake or following a keto lifestyle, Erythritol is a game-changer. It is a sugar alcohol found naturally in some fruits and fermented foods. Why bakers love it: It has about 70% of the sweetness of table sugar but contains zero calories and has a zero glycemic index (meaning it doesn't affect blood sugar levels). Best for: Light sponges, muffins, and tea loaves. Top Tip: Erythritol can have a slight "cooling" sensation on the tongue. To balance this, try using it in recipes that feature warm spices like cinnamon or ginger. 4. Maple Syrup: Liquid Gold Maple syrup isn't just for pancakes. Pure Organic Maple Syrup is a fantastic way to add moisture and a distinct, woody sweetness to your bakes. Why bakers love it: It's incredibly rich in antioxidants and minerals like zinc and manganese. It also adds a beautiful golden hue to your crusts. Best for: Drizzling over traybakes, sweetening raw vegan tarts, or making homemade granola. Top Tip: When swapping a dry sugar for maple syrup, reduce the other liquids in your recipe (like milk or water) by about 60ml for every 250ml of syrup used to keep the consistency right. 5. Chopped Dates & Raisins: Nature's Candy Sometimes, you don't need a powder or a syrup at all. Organic Chopped Dates or Raisins can act as the primary sweetener in many rustic bakes. Why bakers love it: You get a burst of sweetness in every bite along with a boost of iron and potassium. Best for: Scones, fruit cakes, and "raw" energy balls. Top Tip: Soak your dates in boiling water for 10 minutes and then blend them into a paste. This "date paste" can be used as a direct replacement for liquid sweeteners in cake batters for a moist, fudgy result. Ready to start your sugar-free baking journey? At Whole Food Earth, we believe that eating well shouldn't mean missing out on the joy of a home-baked treat. By switching to natural alternatives, you're not just "quitting sugar"—you're discovering a whole new world of flavour.

The Nut Butter Masterclass: Crafting Professional-Grade Spreads at Home
The Nut Butter Masterclass: Crafting Professional-Grade Spreads at HomeBy Agi Kaja - 24/03/2026

There is a profound difference between a standard jar of peanut butter and an artisanal, stone-ground almond or cashew butter. If you've ever looked at the back of a supermarket jar and seen "Palm Oil," "Emulsifiers," or "Refined Sugar," you know why the DIY route is the only way for a true whole-food enthusiast. Making your own nut butter gives you total control over the roast, the texture, and the nutritional profile. Whether you're a professional chef prepping for a busy week or a home cook looking for a cleaner snack, here is how to master the art of the spread. 1. The Foundation: Selecting Your Nuts The quality of your butter is entirely dependent on the quality of your raw materials. At Whole Food Earth, we recommend starting with raw, organic nuts to ensure the natural oils are fresh and unoxidised. Almond Butter: Use our Organic Whole Almonds (skin-on) for a deep, earthy flavour and extra fibre. Cashew Butter: Our Organic Whole Cashews create the smoothest, most decadent "velvet" butter imaginable—perfect for vegan baking. Hazelnut Butter: Combine our Organic Raw Hazelnuts with Raw Cacao Powder for a sophisticated, healthy "Nutella" alternative. 2. The "Pro" Step: To Activate or To Roast? While you can make butter from 100% raw nuts, a light roast helps release the natural oils, making the blending process faster and the flavour more intense. The Kitchen Method: Spread your nuts on a large baking tray and roast in a fan oven at 160°C for 8–12 minutes. You aren't looking to "cook" them — just to warm them until they smell fragrant. Pro Tip: Let the nuts cool for just 5 minutes before blending. Warm nuts release their oils much more readily than cold ones, saving your food processor from overheating. 3. The Blending Journey: Don't Panic Making nut butter is a test of patience. Whether you are using a high-speed blender or a food processor, the mixture will go through four distinct stages: The Flour Stage: The nuts turn into a fine powder. The Clump Stage: The oils begin to release, and the "flour" starts sticking to the sides. Use a spatula to scrape it down. The Paste Stage: It looks like thick, dry dough. Keep going. The Liquid Gold Stage: Suddenly, the mixture turns glossy and pourable. This is the moment the magic happens. 4. Elevating the Flavour (The Inclusions) Once you have your smooth base, it's time to get creative. This is where your Whole Food Earth pantry shines: The Crunch: Stir in a handful of Raw Cacao Nibs or chopped Pistachios at the very end for texture. The Sweetener: Avoid honey or maple syrup as they contain water and can cause the butter to "seize" (turn hard). Instead, use a pinch of Organic Coconut Sugar or Pink Himalayan Salt. The "Chocolate" Twist: Fold in some melted Cacao Liquor for a rich, dark chocolate nut butter that is entirely sugar-free. 5. Storage and Longevity In the UK climate, homemade nut butter is incredibly stable. Store it in one of our airtight glass jars in a cool, dark cupboard. It will stay fresh for up to a month — though in most households, it rarely lasts a week. The Artisanal Alternative: RAWGORILLA Stone-Ground Nut Butters While making your own nut butter is a rewarding kitchen project, we know that life is busy. If you're looking for that same raw, uncompromised nutritional profile without the cleanup, we are proud to stock RAWGORILLA. RAWGORILLA shares our "earth-first" philosophy, producing nut butters that are truly in a league of their own. Here is why they are a staple on the Whole Food Earth shelves: 1. The Cold-Made Difference Most commercial nut butters — even "natural" ones — are made using high-speed metal grinders that create significant friction heat. RAWGORILLA uses an artisanal stone-grinding process. By keeping the temperature low throughout production, the delicate enzymes, vitamins, and healthy fats within the nuts remain completely intact. It's "raw" in the truest sense of the word. 2. Strictly Single-Ingredient In a world of complex labels, RAWGORILLA is refreshingly simple. Their butters are single-ingredient masterpieces: No Palm Oil: Protecting rainforests and your health. No Added Sugar or Salt: Allowing the natural, creamy sweetness of the organic nuts to shine. No Emulsifiers: Just 100% pure, organic nuts. 3. Professional Texture Achieving a truly "silk-smooth" almond or cashew butter at home can be difficult without industrial equipment. RAWGORILLA butters are stone-ground to a professional standard, making them the perfect "cheat code" for your toasts or as a swirl in your morning porridge. Why shop at Whole Food Earth? We know that for our "Pro" bakers and bulk-buyers, consistency is everything. If you are ordering a 10kg wholesale supply of cashews to launch your own small-batch butter brand, or simply a 1kg bag for the family, you need to know you are getting exactly what you paid for. At Whole Food Earth, every order is digitally weight-verified at our UK dispatch station. Our scales are calibrated to ensure that every gram of our premium organic nuts is accounted for, providing you with the perfect ratio for your recipes every single time.

The Professional’s Guide to the Ultimate Gooey Brownie
The Professional’s Guide to the Ultimate Gooey BrownieBy Agi Kaja - 24/03/2026

Why Cocoa Liquor is the Secret to the Ultimate 'Gooey' Bake For the serious home baker, making the perfect brownie is like a special ritual. We've all been there: chasing that elusive, paper-thin crackle on top and a centre so fudgy it's practically molten. Most high-street recipes rely on standard cocoa powder or melted supermarket chocolate, but these often result in a "cakey" or overly sweet finish. If you want a professional, truffle-like density that stays gooey for days, you have to look at the chemistry of your fats and solids. The secret used by artisan patisseries? Cocoa Liquor. By moving away from processed chocolate and back to raw building blocks, you gain total control over the texture and intensity of your bake. The Recipe: Professional Cacao Paste Brownies Yield: 16 Decadent Squares | Prep time: 15 mins | Bake time: 20–25 mins The Ingredient List (Metric) 200g Whole Food Earth Cocoa Liquor (Cacao Paste): Chopped finely. 100g Whole Food Earth Organic Cacao Butter: For a silkier, cleaner melt. 250g Organic Coconut Sugar: For deep, natural caramelisation. 3 Large Free-Range Eggs: Essential they are at room temperature. 1 tsp Vanilla Bean Paste & a generous pinch of Himalayan Pink Salt. 80g Spelt Flour (or Almond Flour for GF): Low gluten keeps the structure soft. 50g Organic Cacao Powder: Sifted to remove lumps. 100g Raw Cacao Nibs (Optional): For a sophisticated, crunchy inclusion. The Method 1. The Gentle Melt Preheat your fan oven to 160°C. Line a 20cm (8-inch) square baking tin with greaseproof paper, leaving an overhang to help you lift the brownies out later. Using a bain-marie (a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water), slowly melt the Cocoa Liquor and Cacao Butter. Ensure the base of the bowl doesn't touch the water. Once glossy, remove from the heat and stir in the Coconut Sugar. 2. The Emulsion In a separate large bowl, whisk your room-temperature eggs and vanilla for about 3 minutes until pale and aerated. Slowly pour the warm chocolate mixture into the eggs, folding gently with a spatula. You're looking for a thick, glossy emulsion that holds its shape in "ribbons." 3. Sift and Fold Sift the Cacao Powder, flour, and salt directly into the bowl. Fold together with a large metal spoon or spatula until just combined. Crucial: Over-mixing at this stage develops gluten, which turns a gooey brownie into a sponge cake. Stop the moment the streaks of flour disappear. 4. The Bake Pour the batter into the tin and level the top. If using Cacao Nibs, scatter them evenly now. Bake in the centre of the oven for 20 to 25 minutes. The Pro Test: Give the tin a gentle shake at 20 minutes. The edges should look set and slightly papery, but the centre should still have a distinct "wobble." If a skewer comes out clean, you've overbaked them. You want sticky, fudgy crumbs on that skewer. 5. The Setting Phase This is the hardest part of the recipe: Patience. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the tin at room temperature. For that professional, dense fudge texture, refrigerate the tin for at least 2 hours (or overnight) before slicing. This allows the cacao butter to set the structure into a gooey masterpiece. Precision in Every Batch In professional baking, the margin between a masterpiece and a mistake is measured in grams. We know that when you're prepping a 6kg bulk order for a busy café or a high-stakes Easter event, you need to trust your supply chain. At Whole Food Earth, we treat your ingredients with the same precision you bring to your kitchen. Whether you are ordering a 500g pouch of Cacao Butter or a 6kg wholesale haul of Cocoa Liquor, our tracking and verification systems ensure that what you receive is exactly what your recipe requires.
