Product Review

The raw beans of the cacao plant are the origin of all chocolate and cocoa products. Found in the pulpy center of the cacao fruit, cacao beans are one of the most plentiful sources of antioxidants, and they’re also known to be one of the highest dietary sources of magnesium. Cacao beans also provide dietary fiber and many essential minerals in significant quantities, such as iron. They contain potent flavonoids and powerful alkaloid chemicals including theobromine, phenylethylamine and anandamine. The Peruvian cacao farmers we partner with hand-select our cacao beans, rinse them with purified water, dry them at low temperatures and partially ferment them to ensure the best quality and flavor. Navitas Naturals Cacao Beans are the purest, darkest chocolate available. You can enjoy them right out of the bag, drop them into a blender with your favorite smoothie, or sprinkle them on top of ice cream or yogurt. Cacao beans can also be enjoyed in a variety of dessert recipes and chocolate confections.
