Discover our Black Paste, a fresh artisan pasta that celebrates roasted black sesame. Commonly used in high-end pastry making, black sesame offers deep notes of praline and toasted hazelnut.
Our Black Paste derives its creamy texture and deliciousness from a blend of sesame and cold-pressed pure cocoa butter. The whole thing is enhanced with a hint of fresh ginger and black pepper, then delicately bound with date syrup. The grand finale? The addition of activated charcoal derived from coconut shells, used here to give the drink a dizzying and captivating black colour. A creation of great intensity, designed to leave a lasting impression.

Black sesame delivers intense notes of praline and toasted cereal. The paste format really comes into its own here: unlike a dehydrated powder, processing it into a paste preserves the natural oils, moisture and healthy fats of the fresh sesame. Together, the candied sesame and charcoal create a smooth and intensely indulgent base.

BIG thanks to the Main Noire team! I first discovered the Black Paste @ the Textures cafe in Nîmes and instantly fell in love with both the delicate taste and the beautiful gray color of the Black Paste latte. So much so that I ordered my own jar – and a Golden one to boot – straight after returning home! My new daily treat since then.

I'm absolutely crazy about it… In their milk frother with plant-based milk, it's just perfect. Spicy, comforting, and powerful—perfect for starting or ending the day.
In addition, it soothes the stomach and therefore the mind.
