Our organic criollo cacao beans are a unique variety grown in the amazon region of Peru. Criollo cacao beans are known for their higher nutritional content and wonderful taste and aroma. Contrary to industry standards, our cacao is fermented for a shorter period of time in order to preserve its nutrients. Our Raw Criollo Cacao Nibs are a great alternative to cacao beans, as they are de-husked and in a smaller, much easier to consume form factor. They can be consumed as a snack on their own, but can also add a lovely cacao flavour to cereals, snacks, and other preparations.
