Processing Method:

Other suppliers CLAIM their product is RAW, but we have actually verified the temperatures of our process with video evidence. Every single cacao bean used to produce this powder is grown by a cooperative of over 3,000 small farmers in Bali, who wild-harvest cacao pods from their own certified Organic food-forests. Produced with safety in mind at every step, cacao beans from freshly split pods are fermented under control at 40C and then washed in potable water before being solar-dried.

Unlike other raw cacao powders made by large processors with high-heat filter presses, our raw cacao nibs are cold-pressed in small batches on proprietary equipment developed specifically for VERIFIED RAW low-temperature processing, under 120F.

After pressing the butter from the nibs, the concentrated cake left behind is low in fat (22%), but not as low as other powders. Why? Because it takes heat to get all the oil out. The cacao cake is cold-milled to a powder and then fine sieved for use as cacao powder. Never touched by high heat, never contaminated by clarifying chemicals or solvents and never force filtered, it retains high levels of nutrients and antioxidants.
