Hailed as the "Food of the Gods", cacao contains the highest concentration of magnesium and antioxidants of any food on the planet. Our cacao, a blend of highly-prized Criollo and Trinitario beans, is grown under a canopy of shade trees in the fertile soil of the Dominican Republic. In order to preserve the complex flavor profile and health benefits, the beans are carefully harvested, fermented, sun-dried, and pressed, never reaching a temperature above 114°F. Our Raw Cacao Paste is made from 100% pure ground cacao beans and has a deep flavor and luscious texture that can be used to make a variety of rich chocolate concoctions, including desserts, drinks and confections. Our Raw Cacao Paste is a chocolatier's dream!
