Flavor

It is distinguished by its combination of a chocolate-like flavor and a cola-like effect.

Uses in flavor

The product serves locally as a substitute for chocolate.

Production

Guarana paste is made from the pulverized, roasted seed of Paullinia Cupana, triturated with a small amount of water to form a dough which is then shaped into bars or balls and left to dry in the sun or on a grill over open fire.
