pure | organic | cacao
This is chocolate in its purest, simplest form with no added nasties. just 100% pure, organic, ethically sourced cacao beans gently roasted and stone ground.
we’re all about the bean
Our cacao products are produced using single-source, fairly-traded, organic certified cacao beans from Dominican Republic. The beans have notes of peanuts and honey.
coffee alternative
Cacao is a fab coffee alternative thanks to the alkaloid, Theobromine, which is a natural stimulant similar to caffeine. Theobromine affects the cardiovascular system, whereas caffeine affects the nervous system, hence why many people get the jitters from drinking coffee.
Untempered
Untempered means a white ‘bloom’ pattern will be on the cacao.
Tempering cacao means raising and lower the temperature so that the crystal formulation inside the chocolate is altered. We don’t do this for the 100% cacao block, as it doesn’t need it. When it’s untempered it melts quicker – so it’s perfect for hot cacao and baking.
Servings: if you make a 20g serving, you should get around 15 servings per pack.
