More About Cacao

Raw Cacao—the pure source of ordinary chocolate—was revered by ancient cultures as the food of the gods. Research is now linking the antioxidants in cacao to everything from cardiovascular health to improved brain function and longevity! Cacao even provides the same molecules our brain makes when we’re happy or in love!

Our raw cacao undergoes special handling so that it’s truly raw, totally contaminant-free and absolutely bursting with fresh nutrients, vital enzymes, and subtle flavors...and we're the only superfood company that takes YOU to the source with Video Verification, so you know you're getting a Verified Raw, planet-positive product.

Cacao is grown in tropical regions all over the world, and each region has different varieties and different flavors. The chocolates most people are used to eating are made with roasted beans, with lots of sugar added. After all that processing, the origin of the cacao beans doesn’t matter much. Premium dark chocolates are starting to recognize the subtle flavor variations that come from different regions – offering single origin chocolates. In raw chocolate, and especially in raw cacao (100% dark chocolate), the flavor of the bean is much more important than in roasted chocolates.

That is why we sell only the finest heirloom varieties of cacao we can find: Ecuadorian Cacao Nacional Arriba Fino de Aroma and Balinese Wild Criollo/Trinitario. With fruity and floral overtones, our raw cacao and raw chocolate are the finest cacao available, and specially processed to maintain all the anti-oxidant properties of raw cacao. Particularly exciting is our new Indonesian Verified RAW <120 Cacao Powder & Butter, which are completely unique and taste unlike any "RAW" Cacao you've tasted before. Whichever type of Cacao you prefer, using the standard test for anti-oxidant levels called ORAC (oxygen radial absorbance capacity), you can see that Cacao has the highest anti-oxidant levels of any food tested!
