The main cola sodas, Coca-Cola and Pepsi have 38 to 42 grams of sugar.
Many chocolates average 50% sugar, the popular Hershey bar with 24 grams (57%).
KukaXoco eliminates this addictive, diabetes-inducing, obesity-inducing, "sweet drug"
(global consumption of added sugar contributes to over 150,000 deaths a year).
KukaXoco frees cola sodas and cacao from sugar's deadly embrace!
scientists at KukaXoco (kúkazóko) have proved that safe and healthy extracts of de-cocainized coca leaf (FDA and DEA compliant - 21 CFR 182.20 and 21 USC 812 IIa4 - legal for sale wherever Coca-Cola is sold), makes diet cola sodas much more pleasant to drink (and allowing an 80+% reduction of sugar in sugary colas) --- and debitters unsweetened cacao, allowing the chocolate industry to reduce its sugar use. The powerful, safe, healthy coca leaf allows industries to now remove one of the world's most destructive (diabetes, obesity, heart disease) and addictive drugs, sugar, from their products. By removing most/all sugar, while preserving taste and aroma of cola sodas and chocolate, KukaXoco is helping to turn chocolate into the world's most delicious health food, while making cola sodas, well, at least not a health threat.
Easy!!! Brew up to two bags of coca tea in a cup of hot water. Mix in two tablespoons of unsweetened Hershey's Cacao (or any non-Dutch processed cacao powder). Stir. Drink.
The bitterness is eliminated while preserving chocolate taste, aroma and color.
How easy? Take one 220 milliliter can of U.S. Diet Coke (only 'sweetened' with aspartame). Add 5 to 10 milliliters of ENACH coca leaf extract. To make a cola soda with 80% less sugar, just a bad of table sugar. To make a more pleasant diet cola soda, add a bag of 10:1 cyclamate:saccharin. The resulting experience is much more pleasant than with existing diet cola sodas, and with little to none of the sugar of sugary colas.
Our current formulation eliminates most of the sugar and fat, by reducing the sugar and fat down to 15% (goal is 5%), while being indistinguishable from (dark) chocolate (fudge) in terms of taste, color, and odor - with no aftertaste, and with no need for alkalinization.

On 7 October 2016, KukaXoco president Greg Aharonian spoke at the London Chocolate Forum, hosted by Kennedy's Confections magazine. His talk focused on the growing legal and financial threats to the chocolate industry from their reliance on an addictive and toxic drug, sugar, which comprises 50% of all of the chocolate in world, and contributes to the global health problems due to diabetes and obesity. His talk concluded with a discussion of a new solution to the bitterness problem of cacao (requiring lots of sugar) - use of coca leaf extracts. Click here to download a copy of his presentation.
Here I discuss a new de-bittering agent from a little used herb of the Andean region of Bolivia and Peru - the coca leaf.
