CRIOLLO CACAO BEANS
Kazu® Organic Cacao Nibs and Powder are made from the highest quality cacao beans characterized by their superior flavor and fine aroma. Criollo Cacao beans from Peru are highly touted for their quality and lack of bitterness. These beans provide a rich chocolate flavor and taste.
NOT BITTER
Kazu® Organic Cacao Nibs and Powder are harvested by hand and specifically chosen because not all of the fruit ripens simultaneously. The cacao is then processed close to the farms to ensure freshness. The seeds of the cacao trees have a bitter taste, but through trial and error, they have developed a fermentation process to develop a perfect flavor without the bitterness.
