new material to work with, won from the cocoa tree.  A multitude of applications for chefs and artisans. The power of a rare and unexpected taste... 

Valrhona presents Oabika, a new universe of creativity.

Oabika is a cocoa fruit juice concentrate, made from the still-undervalued white pulp that protects beans in the cocoa pod, also known as mucilage. Its nuanced aromatic profile, oscillating between fruity and tangy notes, instantly takes us to the heart of the plantations to discover the rare and exceptional taste of the fruit of the cocoa tree. Its syrupy texture and amber color make it an exceptional ingredient, the new key ingredient for chefs and artisans around the world.

Oabika was awarded a Sirha Innovation Award in the Products, Beverages and Ingredients category. This award is the result of a collaborative effort to create innovative products committed to reusing by-products of cocoa. 

Oabika is the embodiment of Valrhona's goal: the creation of a fair and sustainable cocoa industry in order to inspire creative and responsible gastronomy.
