Description
Organic Cacao Powder is perfect for baking.
Our Organic Cocoa Powder is crafted from 100% certified organic cocoa beans (Theobroma cacao) that are carefully roasted, broken, and de-shelled. The beans are ground into cacao liquor and then pressed to remove the cacao butter. It is then alkalised to enhance the flavour, colour, and solubility. The resulting press cake is then finely pulverized into this smooth rich organic cacao powder.
The beans are fermented and roasted in a careful process. This breaks down the phytates in the beans and gives them a roasted flavour, making our cacao powder perfect for delicious cakes.  This premium organic cocoa powder delivers a deep, robust chocolate taste and a dark brown appearance.
Cacao is often referred to as ‘food of the gods’. This is due to its rich taste and nutritional power. Cacao contains over 300 chemically distinct compounds and is rich in plant polyphenols. The most beneficial polyphenols are called flavonoids, these have an antioxidant action in the body.
Most regular chocolate choices contain milk, sugar and other additives thrown in. If you want to make your own natural versions, cacao powder is a perfect starting point.
This delicious powder can be used in baking, homemade chocolates and smoothies. Cacao is a source of selenium, this contributes to normal function of the thyroid and immune system. It is also a source of magnesium which is necessary for the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. A great excuse to make more cacao based foods!
