Chocolate and Cupuaçu Pudding

The scent of cupuaçu recalls the exotic perfumes of the Amazon. Cupuaçu’s taste is quite hard to describe, but it falls somewhere between a banana and white chocolate, with an alcoholic tang at the end. It’s a delicious reward for an exploratory palate. It’s not hard to harness this unknown fruit into a delectable dessert. Simply make a pastry cream and add the fruit pulp at the end, then make a chocolate ganache to pour on top. It tastes like nothing you’ve ever tried before
