The leftover cherry fruits of the coffee plant used to go in the trash but they’re now being turned into coffee flour
The fruits start to decay quickly after they’re picked from the beans, so until now have been creating piles of rotting pulp no good for anything but worms
Dan Belliveau’s startup CoffeeFlour turns these cherries into a gluten free flour which can be used in recipes for cookies, pasta, and other foods—but most importantly it adds interesting flavors to chocolate bars 🙂
