The Amazonian Superfruit Most People Have Never Tasted
Native to the Amazon and closely related to cacao, cupuaçu is one of the rainforest’s most distinctive fruits. It is known for naturally occurring polyphenols and an aromatic, pleasantly tangy flavor often compared to pineapple, pear and cacao.
Our Cupuaçu Powder brings this rare Amazonian flavor to smoothies, yogurt, baked goods, desserts and chocolate creations.
Why you’ll love it
- A rare Amazonian superfruit — an opportunity to experience a fruit still unfamiliar to most Americans
- Naturally occurring plant compounds — cupuaçu is known for polyphenols and flavonoids
- Complex tropical flavor — aromatic and tangy, with notes reminiscent of fruit and cacao
- Made for chocolate — its natural tartness creates an unexpected contrast with chocolate
Ways to enjoy it
Blend it into banana or coconut smoothies, stir it into yogurt or oatmeal, add it to baked goods, or combine it with chocolate in truffles, fillings and homemade treats.
How to use
Start with 1–2 teaspoons and adjust to taste. Stir into wet ingredients or blend thoroughly into drinks and smoothies. Balance its natural tartness with banana, coconut, honey or chocolate.
