A distinctive banana

Fruit energy to go
CHEWY BANANAS are dried baby bananas with a soft bite and concentrated fruit flavour. Drying removes water. The naturally occurring carbohydrates remain in the fruit – handy as a small snack on the go or before an active break.
The fruit takes centre stage
Here, you eat the fruit itself rather than an infusion. Its sweetness comes from naturally occurring sugars; bananas also contain fibre. Dried fruit is more concentrated per gram than fresh fruit. Use the nutritional information on the pack as a guide to your portion.
On their own or in your own mix
Slice the banana into porridge, pair it with Macambo or add a few cacao nibs. Its soft bite makes a lovely contrast to crunchy ingredients. Pair with your GUYA tea – fruit and drink can be enjoyed however you like.

Soft, sweet and nutrient-rich, our Chewy Bananas are made from 100% Orito bananas grown in the Ecuadorian rainforest.
These small baby bananas grow in so-called chakras—the forest gardens of Indigenous Kichwa communities in Napo. After harvesting, they are gently dehydrated, concentrating their natural sweetness and giving them a delicate, chewy texture with a caramelised surface. A wholesome snack straight from the heart of the Amazon, with no additives.
GUYA works directly with farmers like Juan Pedro Grafo from the community of Diur. Each Orito banana reflects his passion for natural living and is free from industrial processing, added sugars or preservatives. You can find our transparency videos on YouTube.

Ich habe noch nie so leckere Bananen Snacks gegessen. Die erste Tüte hat bei mir nur eine Woche gehalten. Sie sind wahnsinnig lecker und durch dieses leicht karamellisierte, was bei der Trocknung entsteht, einfach unwiderstehlich. Die zweite Tüte ist schon angebrochen…
