Organic Raw Cocoa Overview

Cocoa powder comes from cacao beans that grow in pods on the cacao tree. Cacao beans are fermented, dried, roasted and then cracked. Then the nibs are ground to extract about 75% of the cocoa butter, leaving a dark brown paste which is called chocolate liquor. After drying again, the mass is ground into powder - unsweetened cocoa. Dutch cocoa is treated with an alkali to neutralize the cocoa's natural acidity.

Great taste, what can be better than pure cacao. Inulin may sweeten it a lil but I like it bitter. You can add stevia to avoid sugar. If mixed with cashew milk that's not even necessary. The best for energy balls or chia pudding as well. | |

Amazingly rich cocoa smell and that dark chocolate sweet/bitter flavour. Great addition to your protein shakes for a GENUINE chocolate taste. Not really a fan of some of the synthetic chocolate mixes going around, even ON can sometimes fall short on flavours. Be warned though; you could end up like me and just start hammering away at it with 2 scoops plus because of how delicious it is. |
