A delicious cacao item, the greatest we've ever tasted, ready to use to make your
life easier. Peeled raw certified organic Criollo cacao bean nibs (pieces of peeled
low fermented cacao beans). Some call these chocolate nibs. They are unroasted
and unsweetened, ready to use in your recipes or eat out of the bag and come in
a variety of sizes.
Cacao is pronounced (ka - Cow), rhymes with COW. Some say Cocoa (ko ko) Beans.
The terms are used interchangebly.
This food of the Goddesses, bought by them to you and is a one of a kind treat.
This is raw certified organic cacao bean nibs (raw chocolate pieces). Chocolate,
cocoa and cocoa butter are made from cacao beans. Check out a Dagoba Organic
Chocolate label, they list the cacao percentage. Now you can eat pure raw cacao
chocolate, make raw delights and frozen chocolate shakes. Have a chocolate party.
Cacao contains a wide array of unique properties and minerals, including high
levels of sulfur and magnesium. It may increase your focus and alertness and
contains nutrients to keep you happy. Chocolate and cacao are often associated
with love. All this is due to phenylethylamine contained in the cacao. Anandamide
can be produced in the brain when we are feeling great, cacao makes anandamide
stick around longer.
Cacao may seem to diminish your appetite, perhaps due to its MAO inhibitors
(monoamine oxidase enzyme inhibitors). Cacao's rare MAO inhibitors may allow
serotonin and additional neurotransmitters to circulate in the brain. It also
may facilitate youthening and rejuvenation, according to some.
These cacao nibs taste like real chocolate. Some use a sweetener like raw organic
agave nectar when preparing chocolate treat recipes. A great chocolate dairy
free shake consists of water, cacao, agave nectar, ice and macadamia nuts. Blend
the cacao with the water and agave or yacon syrup until smooth. Next add ice
and quickly blend to crush ice into a slurry.

* Eat them plain, chewing and experiencing the taste
