Cacao Beans Criollo unpeeled organic
Our Criollo cacao beans from one of the best fine flavor cacao varieties in the world are raw and 100% pure.
Why buy cacao beans?
Cacao has all the benefits of chocolate without the undesirable high sugar content and additives.
It has been determined that raw cacao contains around 300 substances. Cacao has the highest magnesium content of any food. Magnesium is a component of bones and teeth, plays an important role in energy metabolism and is essential for normal muscle function and energy metabolism. Magnesium also plays a role in skeletal structure and is important in the transmission of stimuli in the nervous system during muscle contraction.
Cacao beans contain a combination of substances that induce feelings of well-being and joy in us.
By the way: The Aztecs regarded cacao beans as a gift from God - not only as an offering, but also as a means of payment.
What makes our cacao beans special?
Our cacao beans are raw, which means they are only fermented and not roasted. The cacao develops its typical aroma through fermentation. The beans come from the Criollo fine flavor cacao variety from Peru, which is one of the rarest and best varieties in the world.
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.
Our fine flavor cacao is cultivated without the use of pesticides or synthetic fertilizers.
As the name suggests, fine flavor cacao beans taste better, finer and less bitter than bulk cacao beans. Criollo cacao beans are slightly fermented and thus develop their typical cacao aroma.
How to integrate into the daily diet?
On its own as a snack or sprinkle on muesli and fruit salad. Add to desserts and smoothies. Cacao beans taste particularly good in combination with goji berries or nuts.
Cacao beans are practical for on the go and when travelling, as they do not soften in the blazing sun like chocolate.
Tip: If more sweetness is preferred, the beans can be dipped in agave syrup or honey. Our favorite is Medjool dates with 1-2 cacao beans in them for a high-energy, stimulating snack.
