Cacao powder Peru - Low in fat with 10-12% cocoa butter content (100% natural) 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.

Carob powder - from the pods of the carob tree Carob is a legume that grows on the carob tree, a wild, evergreen tree native to the Mediterranean, and has been used as a sweetener and nutritious natural snack for thousands of years. Carob was well known to the ancient Greeks, who spread the seeds of this plant in Greece and Italy. Why consume carob powder? People who don't know much about carob think it's a healthy version of (high-sugar, high-fat) chocolate, but it's so much more. We like to mix carob with raw cocoa for a sweet and healthy treat, because cocoa has a lot of magnesium and compared to cocoa, carob contains three times as much calcium, a third less calories and only 1% fat. Carob is naturally sweet and fewer sweeteners are needed when it is used in recipes. It has a low glycaemic index, is low in fat and exceptionally nutritious, rich in calcium, protein and fibre. What makes our carob powder special? Our organic carob powder from Spain is gently heated and ground for drying in order to preserve its flavour, colour and nutrients. Due to the drying process at well over 42° C, it is no longer raw food. Due to the different requirements, we offer carob powder in 2 different sizes: 250g and 500g. These can be selected at the top right under "Weight variants". Using carob in everyday life and for great recipes Use carob powder to sweeten dishes, in desserts, smoothies, sprinkled on your muesli, as an ingredient in raw chocolate and cakes as well as in quick and nutritious snacks.

Organic barley grass juice powder in raw food quality (100% natural) Why barley grass juice powder? Barley grass juice powder is often referred to as the ultimate superfood powder! Our 100% pure barley grass juice powder (without any additives (including non-declared additives) or carriers such as maltodextrin) is a great and simple alternative to barley grass powder, as not everyone has the time or inclination to grow fresh grass and press it into juice. Simply mix with water or another favourite liquid and you have pure barley grass juice. Health benefits of barley grass juice powder? Barley grass juice contains many valuable vital substances and nutrients. The chlorophyll it contains also has a beneficial effect. What makes our barley grass juice powder special? For our organic barley grass juice powder, the juice is pressed from young barley grass and then gently processed into powder. It is 100% pure juice powder, without any additives or carriers such as maltodextrin. Our organic barley grass juice powder comes from a pristine area of the USA, where it is harvested at the time of highest nutrient density. The producer has optimised the manufacturing process over many years and now guarantees raw food quality, i.e. the entire processing takes place below 42° C. The rich green colour testifies to the abundance of chlorophyll (plant green). Differences between barley grass juice powder and barley grass powder The two forms of processing into grass powder and juice powder both have their respective advantages. The main difference between grass powder and juice powder lies in the dietary fibre/fibre content. In the case of barley grass powder, this is a very high 35 to 40%. Dietary fibre has a satiating effect, stimulates digestion and prevents constipation. This barley grass juice powder, on the other hand, contains only 5.7% fibre. As a result, the nutrients and vital substances (including chlorophyll) are present in concentrated form. Another important difference is the flavour. While the grass powder tastes like dried grass (slightly bitter), this barley grass juice powder is dominated by flavours such as spinach and green herbs as well as a salty aftertaste. Both flavours can be easily distinguished visually. The barley grass powder has a much lighter green colour than the barley grass juice powder.

Recommended intake Initially ½ teaspoon daily, increase to ½ - 1 teaspoon 2-3 times daily as required. It is best to drink half an hour before meals. Storage Store in a cool, dark and dry place.As barley grass juice powder is spray-dried, it clumps more quickly than barley grass powder, which is air-dried. The clumping is caused by moisture absorption from the air. We recommend from our own experience: Always seal the pack airtight. Unfortunately, the zip of the bag sticks over time, which is why sealing clips are very practical. Pour some of the powder into a jar with a screw cap for easier handling. Store the bags/jars in a kitchen cupboard (dark) as far away from the cooker as possible (due to moisture during cooking). We do not recommend storing in the fridge, as condensation would occur. A constant room temperature is ideal. Nutritional values of barley grass juice powder per 100g (portion 1 tsp = 2g) Energy value 1351kJ/323kcal (29kJ/7kcal)Fat 1g (0.02g)of which saturated.
