Cacao nibs are gently crushed cacao beans, the seeds from the cacao tree. They make a great addition to homemade chocolate treats, but unlike chocolate, they aren't sweetened or processed. They're also known for their health benefits, as they are high in antioxidants, magnesium and dietary fiber. Cacao nibs also contain theobromine, a natural stimulant that can improve mood and alertness.

Our organic Cacao Nibs have a bright and slightly bitter taste of unsweetened dark chocolate that can add an intense chocolate flavor and a crunchy texture to sweet and savory dishes alike. Some enjoy the bitter taste, while other prefer our Cacao Sweet Nibs, which are made by rolling our regular Cacao Nibs in just a touch of organic case sugar.

Technically no (and neither is most other “raw” cacao, but that’s a story for another day!). First, our cacao is naturally fermented to increase its nutritional potency, and then it’s briefly roasted to develop its delicious flavor and ensure food safety. All of our nutritional testing is done on our finished Cacao Powder; we are confident that it’s one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet!

No, cacao nibs do not melt when exposed to heat. They are made by crushing whole, organic cacao beans and their texture is comparable to chopped nuts or seeds. They will soften slightly when used in baked goods or soaked in hot water.

Yes, caffeine is naturally occurring in cacao (happily, so is calming magnesium and relaxing theobromine). You can expect 14mg of caffeine per tablespoon in our Cacao Nibs.

Yes, all of our products are tested by third party, independent labs for heavy metals, microbials, and nutritional values. Trace amounts of cadmium and lead are inherent to virtually all minimally processed cacao and we are confident in the quality and safety of our product.
