Coffee fruit refers to the red coffee cherry that encompasses the bean (seed) and is often discarded during the coffee bean harvesting process.

When utilising the husk and the fruit, coffee fruit is packed with optimal antioxidants such as Chlorogenic Acid - Helps improve cell metabolism. Caffeic Acid - anti-inflammatory properties. Catechin - reduces oxidative stress and helps prevent cell damage.  Polyphenols - Natural prebiotic for gut and brain health. 

Coffee fruit does NOT taste like coffee and instead resembles a berry-like flavour. When mixed in our bars, it provides the perfect binder and tastes delicious. However, our Espresso Tahini bar has added organic Colombian coffee beans which will give it that yummy coffee taste. 

The world wastes 1/3 of all food grown! Food waste contributes to 10% of global green-house gas emissions.

Upcycled foods is a solution to the amounting food waste and food security problem.  Simply meaning: "the use of ingredients that otherwise would be discarded. They are procured and produced using verifiable supply chains and have a positive impact on the environment."

Through upcycling the coffee fruit into our bar, every Coffee Fruit Bar sold is a direct reduction of waste loading on the plant. Roughly 20 Billion kilos of coffee fruit is wasted per year, releasing toxic gases into the environment.

Adopting Contribution through Consumption, every bar you consume is diverting 70g of coffee fruit waste that otherwise may have been polluting natural river systems!
