In 2018, Lea was diagnosed with cancer and while having a nut allergy, she started to make almond butter and cashew butter as a way to get her protein. Not intending to launch her own business, but as a way to get by with four children and a husband, Lea began selling her nut butters to bodybuilders and fitness gurus.
Today, American Dream has grown into a beloved brand, known not just for its indulgent flavors but for its mission of giving back.
Every jar is a testament to Lea’s belief that life’s sweetest moments are those shared with others, especially when they’re built on compassion and purpose. From her kitchen to the hearts of customers everywhere, Lea’s story is one of hope, resilience, and the power of creating something beautiful from life’s toughest trials. American Dream isn’t just a product—it’s a celebration of strength, joy, and giving back.
Lea Hurley’s American Dream Nut Butters offered several great tasting flavors per month and ships daily around the United States.
American Dream Nut Butter donates 10% of all its profits to veterans. Every month through their website, veterans are nominated to receive a free jar of nut butter. 100 veterans are chosen each month.
