Sometimes the best flavours are found in the smallest things
Meet MyCubies® - a specialized brand crafted exclusively for Spanish grower associations of snack cucumbers. The extraordinary flavour and texture makes it an attractive and healthy snack that will impress anyone. MyCubies invites you to embrace a natural, enjoyable approach to snacking.
The MyCubies concept
We have a dedicated breeding team, selecting the right varieties for the grower association in Spain. Constantly looking to improve the assortment by adding new traits and resistances. The selected growers association is in return working closely together with Rijk Zwaan on improving their product quality and shelf life by doing jointly research. This for example results in the development of packaging to increase shelf life and more sustainable packaging solutions. Next to this we give marketing support for growers, traders and retailers by creating jointly campaigns to increase product awareness in the total chain.

Discover the MyCubies mix
Our cucumbers vary in size between about 8 and 11 cm, and when harvested daily, they weigh between 25 and 40 grams. MyCubies cucumbers are not only available in standard green, we also offer white. Mix your colours to create more snacking fun!
Juicy and crispy
Feel the crunch of every bite as our snack cucumbers contain a higher percentage of dry matter compared to for example a Long English cucumber. Despite retaining a high water content, you will keep the juicy experience.
Easy to eat
This snack-sized vegetable is a treat in-between meals and an easy addition to add to your lunch- or snackbox. No need to cut, just grab it for a healthy boost of energy, anytime, anywhere!
Low calories
Thanks to their high-water content, our snack cucumbers are low in calories. MyCubies is a restorative cucumber snack with minerals such as potassium, phosphorus and magnesium. Your freshest and healthiest choice!
Meet the MyCubies ® Two-Bite
Our well known super-crunchy snack cucumber is now also available as a smaller 7cm version: the MyCubies ® Two Bites. They deliver the same premium quality and crunch, just in a more convenient size, making them a satisfying and healthy solution for small cravings. They are also ideal for on the go consumption or as a quick snack. Delicious to enjoy with a dip during those delightful snacking moments with friends or family. News about MyCubies
