Cacao Beans, Nibs or Powder
ORGANIC OR REGULAR

Whole Fermented Dried Beans, Nibs or Powder on various bulk, wholesale or retail presentations. The fruit is farmed, and its beans fermented on large containers while controlling temperature and levels of acidity to obtain the perfect Cacao Bean, then dried and nibbed or ground if needed.

Cocoa powder and cacao powder are spelled similar and are even similar products, but they are not one and therefore the same. Cacao. Cocoa. Both start out as beans from the cacao plant, which are separated from the fatty part referred to as cocoa butter. Cacao nibs have slowly been making their way as the super food amongst health-conscious consumers.

Cacao Liquor Mass
ORGANIC OR REGULAR

Just like beans, it contains both cacao solids and butter in roughly equal proportion; it is produced from beans that have been fermented, dried, roasted, and separated from their skins. The mass is melted to become liquor or liquid, and the liquor is either separated into cocoa solids and cocoa butter, or cooled and molded into blocks of raw chocolate.

Try grating it and sprinkling on your breakfast. Add a sweetening agent and chew. Freeze grated cacao liquor with sweeteners. Eat cold. Blend cacao liquor into herbal teas. Grate and add to raw ice creams for the best chocolate chips in the world. Create a raw chocolate bar. Blend melted cacao liquor, agave nectar, carob powder, maca, coconut oil, cacao butter, angstrom calcium, and cashews. Pour into a mould and freeze. Eat cold and experience the food of the gods.
