Product information "Cacao powder Peru organic"

Cacao powder Peru - Low in fat with 10-12% cocoa butter content

Update: Due to the cocoa shortage, our supplier was unable to send us 100% Criollo powder. The new batch contains 70% Criollo cocoa (previously 100%). The remaining 30% is Forastero, Trinitario and Nacional. They are also high quality, organically certified and from Peru. That is why our cocoa powder is temporarily called "Cocoa Powder Peru".

Our raw cocoa powder originates from the precious cocoa sauce Criollo and has a delicious, full chocolate taste. It is made from unroasted cocoa beans and contains up to twice as much antioxidants as conventional cocoa powder. The gentle processing at low temperatures preserves vitamins, minerals, enzymes and antioxidants which can be absorbed so optimally by the body.

Cocoa has all the benefits of chocolate, but without the undesirably high sugar content and the additives of commercial chocolate. Raw cocoa has an abundance of antioxidants and the combination of serotonin, dopamine, anandamide and phenetylamine (PEA) illuminates our mood and creates feelings of wellbeing and joy in us. Cocoa is also rich in magnesium.

Our cocoa is grown by small farmers in the Amazon rainforest under semi-natural conditions.

Why we love Cocoa powder

The cocoa bean is an impressive food given to us by Mother Nature. It was regarded by the Aztecs as a gift of God and was used not only as a sacrifice, but also as a means of payment.

It has been found that raw cocoa contains about 300 substances and is one of the foods with the highest content of antioxidants! Cocoa can therefore help to protect our cells from free radicals and highly reactive oxygen compounds. They are important to maintain and function the cell.

Cocoa has the highest magnesium content of all foods. Magnesium is a component of bones and teeth, plays an important role in energy metabolism and is essential for a normal muscle function and for energy metabolism. Magnesium also plays a role in the skeletal structure and is important in the transmission of stimuli in the nervous system during muscle contraction.

Cocoa beans contain a combination of substances that trigger feelings of wellbeing and joy in us.

SamaraNatura organic Cocoa powder Criollo

Our cocoa powder is made from the Peruvian precious cocoa variety Criollo, one of the world's rarest and best cocoa varieties, and comes from a cooperative in Peru, which dispenses with the use of pesticides and synthetic fertilizers and supplies the largest raw materials stores in the United States and Great Britain.

To prepare the powder, the uncooked noble cocoa beans are first ground. The dark-brown viscous cocoa mass produced in this way is compressed by cold pressing to form a cake from which the liquid golden yellow cocoa butter slowly drains. The remaining "cocoa press cake" is subsequently finely ground and sieved through.

This process does not require any chemicals, additives or extraction solvents and produces a fine, soft powder with a full, wonderful chocolate flavor.

The quality of our organic, fair trade certified Criollo cocoa is of great purity and free from mycotoxins, mold and yeast, and prevents you from experiencing this nervous tension that is associated with the consumption of caffeine-containing foods and drinks.

Use

Mix cocoa powder to your muesli, smoothies, (hot) milk drinks, protein drinks and teas. As an ingredient for all delicious chocolate creations and desserts.

Gewürzkakao Pulver Bio

Weight : 125g

Bio Gewürzkakao - produziert in der Schweiz Update: 20% Rabatt auf die aktuelle Charge unseres Bio Gewürzkakao mit Mindesthaltbarkeitsdatum 30.09.2024. Da sich der Import des Maya Gewürzkakaos (infolge der massiv gestiegenen Transportkosten) nicht mehr gerechnet hatte, haben wir in der Schweiz unseren eigenen Gewürzkakao produzieren lassen. Die Kombination aus hochwertigem Kakao und leicht scharfen Gewürzen machen dieses Kakaopulver zum grossen Erlebnis. Der neue Gewürzkakao hat im Vergleich zum alten ein intensiveres Kakao-Aroma und ist etwas herber, leicht schärfer, schokoladiger, weniger süss, ohne Zimt-Aroma. Die braune Farbe des neuen Gewürzkakao ist etwas heller. Was ist Gewürzkakao? Unser Bio Gewürzkakao ist ein grobkörniges Schokoladenpulver, bestehend aus Kakaomasse und unserem Criollo Kakaopulver. Es wird mit Rohrohrzucker gesüsst und mit einer leicht scharfen Gewürzmischung aromatisiert. Lokale und soziale Produktion Der Gewürzkakao wird von den Chocolatiers der Stiftung Ancora-Meilestei in Wetzikon nach einem speziellen Verfahren produziert, um die gewünschte Konsistenz zu erreichen. Zutaten Kakaomasse 40%, Rohrohrzucker 30%, Kakaopulver 25%, Gewürzmischung 5% (Kakaoschalen, Paprika edelsüss, Rohrzucker, Chili, Zimt, Bourbon-Vanille, Tonkabohnen). Sämtliche Zutaten sind Bio-zertifiziert. Zubereitung Mische den Gewürzkakao in lauwarme Pflanzendrinks, in Smoothies, Protein-Shakes und ins Müesli. Passt auch geschmolzen als Dessert-Topping. Wenn du Kokosaroma gerne hast, dann wird dir Kokosmilch mit Gewürzkakao wunderbar schmecken. Tipp: Damit der Gewürzkakao auch in kalten Getränken gut emulgiert (sich verbindet), einen Schwingbesen oder Milchaufschäumer-Stab verwenden. So kann auch ein schöner Schaum hergestellt werden. Für einen intensiven Kakao-Genuss mische 5 Teelöffel (ca. 15g) mit 1 Tasse heissem Wasser oder Pflanzendrink. Wer den Kakao für eine Zeremonie nutzen möchte, verwendet 40-50g auf ca. 2-3dl Wasser oder Pflanzendrink. Bei dieser Menge werden von vielen Menschen euphorische Gefühle wahrgenommen. Diese konzentrierte Form wurde bereits von den Maya-Schamanen vor tausenden von Jahren als «Göttergetränk» angewendet. 2 Grössenvarianten Wir haben diesen edlen Gewürzkakao in zwei verschiedenen Grössen an: 125g, ergibt 8 Tassen 250g, ergibt 16 Tassen Nährwertangaben pro 100g Energiewert 1612 kJ/385 kcalFett 11.4gdavon gesättigte Fettsäuren 7.0gKohlenhydrate 54.6gdavon Zucker 38.9gBallaststoffe 28.5gEiweiss 16.4gSalz 0.1g

Cacao paste Criollo Chips Organic

Weight : 250g

Organic Criollo Cacao mass (paste) in practical chips form Update from January 30th, 2023: Due to the more frequent use of language, we have renamed the product name cocoa paste to cacao mass. The product is one to one the same as before. 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. Size variants We offer cacao mass Criollo Chips as standard in 250g, 500g and 1kg bags. Do you need large quantities? We are also happy to fill 5kg or 10kg bags on request.

Cacao nibs Criollo Organic

Weight : 250g

Cacao Nibs Criollo – Chocolate Magic Cacao nibs or chips are cacao beans which were peeled and broken into small pieces. Our cacao nibs are from one of the finest cacao varieties and 100% raw and unprocessed. Our premium cacao is grown by small farmers in the Amazon rainforest under semi-wild conditions. Cacao has all the health benefits of chocolate but without the high sugar content and additives found in commercial chocolate. Raw cacao contains an abundance of antioxidants, and the combination of stimulating substances (serotonin, dopamine, anandamide and phenethylamine) has mood lifting effects and promotes in us feelings of well-being and joy. Cacao is also rich in magnesium and sulfur, the beauty mineral. Cacao nibs taste less bitter than cacao powder, since they still contain the entire share of the cacao butter (approx. 55%), as also cacao paste does. Why we love Cacao The cacao bean is an amazing food given to us by Mother Nature. The Aztecs considered cacao as a gift of God and used it not only as an offering, but also as a means of payment. It is estimated that raw cacao contains approx. 300 substances and it is considered as one the foods richest in antioxidants! Therefore cacao can significantly help to protect our body cells from free radicals and premature aging. Cacao has the highest magnesium content of all foods. Magnesium is essential for the heart, brain, to calm and relax nerves and muscles and to build bones and cartilages. In conjunction with other ingredients cacao is an ideal brain food and supports mental performance, concentration and attention. Cacao contains a combination of substances which affect our emotions stimulating feelings of well-being and joy. And cacao is rich in sulfur, which promotes strong nails and healthy hair and beautifies the skin. SamaraNatura Cacao Nibs Our cacao nibs are 100% raw and unprocessed. They are made from Criollo cacao from Peru, which is one of the best and rarest varieties in the world. Our fine cocoa is cultivated without the use of pesticides or synthetic fertilizers. Fine cacao of premium quality has a share of only 5-10% of the world's cacao production. Fine cacao grows under similar and often nearly same conditions as in nature, since cacao trees do not like full sun and thrive best close to high rainforest trees. On the contrary the commercial Forastero cacao is typically cultivated in monoculture plantations. As the name indicates, fine cacao has a better, more exquisite flavour which is less bitter than the taste of commercial cacao. Criollo beans are slightly fermented which enhances their typical cacao aroma. Cacao nibs, which are cacao beans peeled and broken into small pieces, taste less bitter than the beans. The purity of our organic, fair trade certified Criollo Cacao is void of mycotoxins, mould and yeast, and thus prevents you from experiencing the jitters associated with caffeine foods or beverages. Use On its own as a snack or sprinkle on cereals and fruit salad. Add cacao nibs to desserts and smoothies. They taste particularly good together with goji berries and nuts. Cacao nibs are convenient to take for journeys and on travels as they do not melt as quickly as chocolate does when exposed to heat. If you prefer more sweetness, you can dip the cacao nibs in agave syrup or honey.

Lucuma Powder Organic

Organic lucuma powder – heavenly delicious fruit powder What is Lucuma Powder? Lucuma (Pouteria lucuma), the "sweet gold of the Incas", is a subtropical, exotic fruit from South America that has long been revered by the ancient Andean culture. Why Buy Lucuma Powder? Healthy fruit sweetness with a low glycemic index Particularly rich in beta-carotene, iron, vitamins B1 and B2 Versatile ingredient for cakes, desserts and ice cream It has been one of our favorite foods since we first met Lucuma powder. The healthy fruit sweetness with a low glycemic index is particularly rich in beta-carotene, iron, vitamins B1 and B2. Its biscuit-like sweetness makes it a favorite in (raw food) cakes, desserts and chocolates. We like to add it to our creams and ice creams and as a gourmet ingredient for all sweets - the wonderful aroma and the biscuit-like sweetness of the Lucuma powder refine every dessert. In Peru, the yellowish-orange fruit is the most popular flavor for ice cream. What makes our Lucuma powder special? Free from pesticides and agrochemicals Raw food quality Gentle processing Best taste Lucuma from SamaraNatura is free from pesticides and agrochemicals. The Lucuma pulp is dried in a solar drying system at low temperatures according to raw food quality standards, then gently ground and then sieved. Although lucuma thrives in other tropical regions as well, the taste of the fruits that grow in the Peruvian highlands is rated even better. This is where our Lucuma powder comes from. The taste of the beautiful, dark yellow powder is reminiscent of maple syrup and cashews. How to use Lucuma powder is an extremely versatile and tasty ingredient that goes well in ice creams, baby food, yogurts, cakes, chocolate and desserts and can be used for Lucuma mousse, pudding or parfait. It is ideal as a sweet flour for tarts, cakes and pastries and tastes great in smoothies, nut milk and other drinks. The powder gives a rich, creamy consistency and turns your raw food creations into a heavenly gourmet treat! We mostly use it in sweet dishes, but we've been told that it tastes great in savory dishes too. Just like Maca, Lucuma helps to merge and emulsify fats or oils with sugar or polysaccharides. For example, Lucuma is ideal as an ingredient for a meal or drink with cocoa chips (50% fat) and yacon root syrup (polysaccharides). It combines cocoa and yacon in taste and consistency.

We believe that the proper measure is in relation to size, sensitivity, age, gender and many other factors that make each human being unique. In general though, a typical daily-suggested intake for most superfoods could be anywhere from 1 tsp. to 3 tbsp. daily, split into two or three doses.

Red Maca Max Powder Organic

Maca Max red – easier to digest and absorb Maca Max red is made from red maca roots from the Junin region of Peru. Short, strong heating breaks down the starch contained in maca, making it easier to digest than raw maca powder. In addition, the nutrients and vital substances contained can be better absorbed. This heating process is also referred to as "gelatinization", which is why the English term "gelatinized" is sometimes read. However, this process has nothing at all to do with bone gelatin. Maca Max red is 100% vegan. Anyone who reacts with flatulence to maca powder in raw food quality can use Maca Max red as an alternative.
