Bold spice, rich ferment, and deep umami are wildly unique tasting notes for chocolate. To’ak subverts expectations with this intriguing creation.

Indigenous communities of the Amazon rainforest have prepared Tucupí – also called Neapía – for millennia. They use fermented manioc starch and chilies, which are cooked over a woodfire in a lengthy process. The flavor of Tucupí is rich, spicy, and smoky, with a prominent umami taste. It’s an important condiment used in many kitchens across the Amazon. To’ak aims to bring recognition to a relatively unknown condiment for an unexpected symphony of flavor.
