Peruvian Harvest Cravings is a line of delectable snacks made with the sole purpose of satisfying your cravings without any guilt! This is achieved by the use of two key ingredients:
CRIOLLO CACAO
Our organic criollo cacao beans are a unique variety grown in the amazon region of Peru. Criollo cacao beans are known for their higher nutritional content and wonderful taste and aroma.
Contrary to industry standards, our cacao is fermented for a shorter period of time in order to preserve its nutrients, using banana to boost the natural flavour and aroma, and we have a longer drying period that ensure the increased stability of the beans.
Criollo Cacao is full of nutrients such as magnesium, manganese, zinc and many more.
YACON ROOT
Yacon is an Andean root originally from Peru, commonly known as “the apple of the earth” due to its sweet, juicy and crisp interior.
Yacon’s sweetness comes from its content of a rich oligofructose (known as Fructo-oligosaccharide, or FOS for short), a soluble fiber which the human body does not metabolize.
When processed properly, yacon’s properties can translate into an array of delectable ingredients that carry its sweetness and the properties of FOS.
