Background Info

Our snacks are crafted using premium local ingredients from Peru, many of which are grown in the Lurín Valley, just south of Lima.

Often called “El Último Valle Verde de Lima” (The Last Green Valley of Lima), Lurín is a fertile agricultural region where farmers have worked for generations to preserve farmland and restore greenery along the Lurín River.

This valley has been an important center of agriculture since ancient times, long before the rise of the Inca Empire, when the Pachacamac civilization cultivated the land.

Today, local producers continue that tradition by growing grains, fruits, and ingredients that bring life back to the valley.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes these cookies different?

They are less sugary than typical cookies and closer to a granola-style crisp cookie.

What is panela?

Panela is unrefined cane sugar commonly used in Latin America. Because it is minimally processed, it retains natural molasses notes that add depth and warmth to baked goods.

What is kiwicha?

Kiwicha, also known as amaranth, is an ancient grain cultivated in the Andes for thousands of years. It is valued for its nutty flavor and nutritional benefits.

Are these cookies very sweet?
