Product Description
Our raw cacao nibs contain no sugar and are approximately 45% fat. They have not been roasted or processed. They have not been ground, pressed, or processed except for a natural fermentation that occurs under banana leaves. They come from a small independently owned farm deep in the Amazon where we sustain the trees by shade growing our cacoa.
Our cacao nibs are always kept at a low temperature during the harvest and fermentation process. The temperature of the air under the shade trees (heat is generated during the fermentation process) does not exceed 45.
Chocolate starts with a tree called the cacao tree (Theobroma cacao). This tree grows in equatorial regions, especially in places such as South America, Africa and Indonesia.
