DECODE THE POD

Go Beyond Chocolate

Upía is the river that irrigates our cacao farm; from our farm in Casanare, the hidden treasures of cacao were given the shape of unique creative tools, by the mastery of crafting ingredients that inspire through their origin.

With Upía you will create a perfectly crafted premium food experience that deciphers all the flavours, textures and richness that comes from using 100% of the Cacao Fino de Aroma pod and 100% of your creativity.

100% OF THE COCOA FRUIT HAS BEEN UNLEASHED

Only 18% of the cacao fruit is used in the chocolate manufacturing process, and now the remaining 82% has been tapped into. By upcycling the musilage and the husk, versatile, natural, premium ingredients are born.

OUR CACAO FRUIT JUICE  CONCENTRATE

Upía's cacao juice fruit concentrate comes from the cacao mucilage, the white pulp that covers the seeds. The pulp is converted into juice and then concentrated to obtain a byproduct with the exceptional bittersweetness and sensorial characteristics of the cacao fruit, suitable for straight consumption or use as an ingredient.
