World - Bronze / Asia Pacific - Bronze

Cupuaçu, also known as Theobroma grandiflorum, is a close relative of cacao. Like cacao beans, Cupuaçu is rich in nutritional value, has also been regarded as a superfood in recent years, and even a substitute for chocolate. 

Handling Cupuaçu is not easy.  It is difficult to remove the shell and needs to be peeled off by hand.  It also has a feature of strong bittersweet which we have to think of a way to reduce the bitterness when making it into bar.  But what make Cupuaçu enchanting is its unique taste and the creaminess mouthfeel.  We came up making a 60% dark milk bar to retain the special flavor and balance the bitterness.  First, you may think of toasted nut and toffee with the support of faint bitterness jumps in the middle. But, when you rewind the whole tasting experience, you will be aware that the flavor all along wasn't nut nor toffee but the unique taste of Cupuaçu.
