Product information "Cacao paste Criollo Chips Organic"
Organic Criollo Cacao mass (paste) in practical chips form
Update: Due to the massive price increase of cocoa (more than twice as expensive) we have to limit the quantities of cocoa mass sold. A maximum of 5kg can be purchased per person.
Because they are always the same size, cacao mass chips (also called cocoa paste or cocoa liquor) are much easier to use/dosage than the broken pieces previously offered and are also suitable, among other things, as a sugar-free chocolate substitute.
What makes our cacao mass special?
- Criollo fine flavor cacao from Peru, which is one of the rarest and best varieties in the world
- Grown under semi-wild conditions and obtained by finely grinding the beans (raw food quality)
- Cultivated without the use of pesticides or synthetic fertilizers
- Very gentle processing that preserves vitamins, minerals, enzymes and countless other substances - for optimal absorption by the body
- Contains a wealth of antioxidants and the combination of serotonin, dopamine, anandamide and phenetylamine (PEA) has a mood-enhancing effect
- Rich in magnesium
Fine flavor cacao variety Gran Cru Criollo
Fine flavor cacao varieties only account for 5-10% of global cacao production. They grow under similar, often almost natural, conditions as they do not tolerate direct sun and thrive alongside other tall rainforest trees. The industrial cacao Forastero, on the other hand, is usually grown in monoculture plantations.
As the name already suggests, fine flavor cacao tastes better, finer and less bitter than consumer cacao because, like cacao nibs, it still contains the entire proportion of cacao butter (approx. 55%). Criollo cacao beans are slightly fermented and thus develop their typical cocoa aroma.
Why consume cacao?
The cacao bean is an amazing food given to us by Mother Nature. It was considered a gift from God by the Aztecs and used not only as an offering but also as a means of payment.
It has been determined that raw cacao contains around 300 substances and is one of the foods with the highest antioxidant content! Cacao can therefore make a significant contribution to protecting our cells from free radicals and premature aging.
Cacao has the highest magnesium content of any food. Magnesium is important for the heart, brain, to calm and relax nerves and muscles, and to build bones and cartilage. Together with other active ingredients, cacao is an ideal brain food and promotes mental alertness and concentration.
Cacao beans contain a combination of substances that have a positive effect on our mood and induce feelings of well-being and joy.
And cacao has a lot of sulphur, which is important for strong nails, healthy hair and beautiful, soft skin.
What is cacao mass (paste) used for?
The cacao mass can be used excellently in all chocolate recipes. Mix cacao paste in smoothies or with ice cream, fruit salad, muesli and desserts. Ideal in combination with cacao butter for fine chocolate creations.
