Limited batch of bars made with Peruvian lúcuma fruit. Lúcuma is a a subtropical tree native to the Andean valleys. Its fruit is a superfood, rich in antioxidants, fiber and B vitamins, with a beautiful flavor resembling maple and caramel. In Perú, lucuma is a popular ingredient in desserts and gelato - and I fell in love with it on my recent trip there. This bar blends lúcuma with 65% single origin cacao (Semuliki Forest, Uganda). I caramelized half of the sugar in this bar to add to the comforting ‘smores’ flavors from the lúcuma. This bar tastes almost like a milk chocolate even though it contains no milk.
Flavor profile: caramel, marshmallow, maple
Ingredients: cacao beans, organic sugar (toasted, untoasted), organic cocoa butter, lúcuma.
