Description

Cocoa is a deviation of the Spanish word cacao, derived from the Nahuatl word cacahuatl. Cocoa can often also refer to the drink commonly known as hot chocolate; to cocoa powder, the dry powder made by grinding cocoa seeds and removing the cocoa butter from the dark, bitter cocoa solids; or to a mixture of cocoa powder and cocoa butter.

Cacao beans are one of nature\'s most potent antioxidant foods. The foundation of all chocolate products, cacao (ka-kow) beans are found inside the pulp of the cacao fruit. Navitas Naturals Cacao Beans are sourced from Peru where they are naturally fermented to remove bitterness - creating a smooth, rich chocolate flavor.
