A delicious cacao item, the best we've ever tasted, ready to use to make your life easier. Peeled raw certified organic Criollo cacao bean nibs (pieces of peeled fermented cacao beans). Some call these chocolate nibs. They are unroasted and unsweetened, ready to use in your recipes or eat out of the bag and come in three sizes (8oz, 16 oz and bulk 22lb bags on special).

Cacao is pronounced (ka - Cow), rhymes with COW. Some say Cocoa (ko ko) Beans. The terms are used interchangebly.

This food of the Goddesses, bought by them to you and is a one of a kind treat. This is raw certified organic cacao bean nibs (raw chocolate pieces). Chocolate, cocoa and cocoa butter are made from cacao beans. Check out a Dagoba Organic Chocolate label, they list the cacao percentage. Now you can eat pure raw cacao chocolate, make raw delights and frozen chocolate shakes. Have a chocolate party.

Cacao contains a wide array of unique properties and minerals, including high levels of sulfur and magnesium. It may increase your focus and alertness and contains nutrients to keep you happy. Chocolate and cacao are often associated with love. All this is due to phenylethylamine contained in the cacao. Anandamide can be produced in the brain when we are feeling great, cacao makes anandamide stick around longer.

Cacao may seem to diminish your appetite, perhaps due to its MAO inhibitors (monoamine oxidase enzyme inhibitors). Cacao's rare MAO inhibitors may allow serotonin and additional neurotransmitters to circulate in the brain. It also may facilitate youthening and rejuvenation, according to some.

These cacao nibs taste like real chocolate. Some use a sweetener like raw organic agave nectar when preparing chocolate treat recipes. A great chocolate dairy free shake consists of water, cacao, agave nectar, ice and macadamia nuts. Blend the cacao with the water and agave until smooth. Next add ice and quickly blend to crush ice into a slurry. Now get crazy.

What do I do with cacao bean nibs? (be the star of your next potluck):
* Eat them plain, chewing and experiencing the taste
* Pop a handful in your mouth with a dab of agave nectar
* Add to your fruit, nut or coconut based smoothie
* Creativity abounds in raw brownies or a raw chocolate pecan pie

Why these Cacao Beans and Cacao Nibs lead all others on the world market in quality and certification:
* Purchase of these nibs help to provide living wages to farmers, build sustainable villages and provide quality of life for the farmers. An incredible amount of love goes into providing this product from everyone who is involved. You will feel it with every bite.
* These extremely high quality raw cacao nibs are Certified Organic by SKAL International and exclusively sold in the United States by only three vendors.
* Non-hybrid Ancient Criollo Variety: Our Cacao beans come from a non-hybrid ancient Criollo variety of cacao. These Criollo beans are the most delicious and preferred beans produced, the "King of Cacao."
* Incredible Flavor, Tasty and Low Acid: A rich flavor without roasting is due to the unique process used to retain the purity and fine aroma, with a low-acid level.

Special Notes:
- Refrigeration of these raw cacao nibs is not required, although recommended for optimum freshness.
- Due to our high level of quality control, every bag of Natural Zing's Raw Organic Cacao (Chocolate) Nibs must test negative for all microbes. Beware of junk cacao now being dumped on the market. Some organic is being sold as organic. If you don't like ours the best we will give you your money back.
- Also be extremely aware of other cacao beans and nibs available on the world market because they are typically heated, fumigated, old or aged and are contaminated by bacteria and fungus. We have sampled some of these beans and have not been satisfied with the quality, so we are only offering beans and nibs from one supplier at this time. A supplier who reinvests in the farming villages. This IS the BEST BEAN OR NIB in the world... by far.
