Baru Baron

Baru Baron Baru Baron brings from Brazil baru seeds and related products to Canada! Baru Baron brings to Canada an amazing superfood: dry-roasted Baru seeds.

This non-domesticated Legume from Brazil has the largest phosphorus and protein content of all edible seeds, and the second-highest potassium and antioxidant content. It also packs a heavy punch on fibre, zinc, calcium, magnesium and omega-6. Eat it as a whole, or ground in smoothies, and you’ve got the perfect on-the-go nutrition that only nature can provide, with a certified peanut-free and nut-

free “peanuty” flavour, and a unique texture. Extensive scientific research on this seed shows potential in satiety control, weight loss and the prevention of oxidative stress in the body, while its gathering by local, rural communities also presents a profitable alternative to deforestation in the Brazilian savanna where it grows.

Our Story

Baru Baron is a Canadian, Toronto-based company focused on introducing and raising awareness of baru seeds and related products into Canada.

📷It was founded in 2016 by Shand Santos, a Brazilian immigrant from Midwestern Brazil. After moving to Canada, Santos thought important to share with the world what his home had to offer.

“Baru Baron” was conceived as a tongue-in-cheek name for a company that, in fact, depends on a network of co-ops, and on the preservation of natural resources for its success. The company is anti-GMOs and anti-monoculture, as these practices are clearly destructive in Midwestern Brazil.
