The Raw Chocolate Company Cacao Nibs Organic Fair Trade 150g (Case of 6)

Did you know chocolate grows on trees? Our raw, fairtrade organic Cacao Nibs come from peeled, whole cacao beans from Peru. The cacao bean is the seed of the Cacao tree. Dark, crunchy and with a bitter chocolatey taste, the cacao beans have been grown organically without the use of pesticides, herbicides or chemicals of any kind. They are also certified Fair Trade, which means that the farmers receive a fair price for their crop.

Magic Beans
The cacao bean has long been treasured in human history. No wonder, it contains over 300 nutritional compounds including essential minerals and mood enhancing chemicals.

Superfood Nutrition and Essential Minerals
Cacao is a tremendous superfood. Essential minerals present in cacao are calcium, zinc, iron, copper and potassium. It is also high in the ‘beauty minerals’ sulphur and magnesium.

The Food of Love and Happiness
Raw Cacao contains a cocktail of pharmacologically active substances, including mood-enhancing neurotransmitters and a chemical the brain secretes when we are in love. This could explain why chocolate has long been suspected of having anti-depressant and aphrodisiac properties!

Full of Flavour & Crunch
Cacao Nibs can be eaten as they are, for a delightful chocolate experience! Their crunchy texture adds an extra special lift to trail mixes. Try sprinkling over muesli and fruit, and even on salads.

Theobromine
Cacao is not high in caffeine. It does, however, contain another stimulant, called Theobromine. Theobromine can have a similar positive effect to caffeine, but not as strong and more long-lasting. It will not cause palpitations and headaches like caffeine can.
