Raw Cacao is the dried and fully fermented seed of the Cacao Tree (Theobroma Cacao). The beans are fermented, naturally sun-dried and then milled into powder.  Our beans are Arriba Nacional which is native to Ecuador.

Raw Cacao contains many valuable natural compounds, most of which are removed or destroyed by modern commercial methods of processing.  The raw plant is a rich source of magnesium, flavonoids and many other vitamins and minerals.  Our Raw Cacao is naturally sun-dried, thus retaining all of the potential health benefits that commercial roasting and processing remove.  So our Raw Cacao is not the same as the cocoa or hot chocolate you would buy in the supermarket!

Raw Cacao is believed to boost memory and cognition due to its high flavanol content.  It may also help to improve your mood and energy levels.
