Criollo Cacao Paste

100% Pure Dark Chocolate. Cacao paste is created from grinding whole cacao beans into a super smooth paste, aka cocoa liquor. This process releases the oils from the beans allowing the paste to be liquid when heated.
 
This cacao paste is sourced from the Vraem district in Cusco, Peru from heirloom Criollo cacao beans. The cacao pods are hand-picked and undergo much of their process in situ - this includes the vital flavour development process of fermentation and the further sun-drying of the beans. Organic, Fair Trade, Kosher, HACCP, and BRC Certified. Non-irradiated and Non-GMO. 

Instructions: Add to elixirs, smoothies and for deliciously rich chocolate beverages or use in baking, chocolate making and desserts.
