Theobroma grandiflorum, commonly known as cupuaçu, also spelled cupuassu, cupuazú, cupu assu, or copoazu, is a tropical rainforest tree related to cacao.[2] Native and common throughout the Amazon basin, it is naturally cultivated in the jungles of north of Brazil, with the largest production in Pará, Amazonas and Amapá, Colombia, Bolivia and Peru.[2] The pulp of the cupuaçu fruit is consumed throughout Central and South America, especially in the northern states of Brazil,[3] and is used to make ice creams, snack bars,[4] and other products.[5][6]
