Cupuaçu is known in the Amazon as “the pharmacy in a fruit” and could be considered one of the most nutritionally beneficial superfruits ever introduced to the marketplace. As a cousin of the cacao fruit, Cupuaçu has a prized tropical flavor combining elements of chocolate, bananas, pear, passion fruit and pineapple.
Cupuaçu contains unique polyphenols, powerful antioxidant phytonutrients, call theograndins in addition to nine other powerful antioxidants like vitamins A and C. This incredible superfood is also filled with Essential Fatty Acids, amino acids, phosphorus, fiber and vitamins B1, B2, and B3 (niacin).
