Chocolate is a staple for many of us, but store-bought chocolate bars offer little to no health perks. Wildly Organic Fermented Cacao Powder, on the other hand, does!

Raw fermented cacao powder is extremely nutrient dense in its unprocessed state. One of the major perks of cacao powder is its antioxidant content. This fermented cacao powder has more antioxidants than both blueberries and green tea!

Plus, cacao powder is high in calcium, magnesium, and iron – so it’s a nutrient powerhouse. And with all of its health-boosting properties comes the best part… the fact that it’s chocolate!

Cacao powder on its own can be a little bitter to most people. But when combined with a sweetener, it makes finger-licking chocolate! The perk of this do-it-yourself chocolate is that you can adjust the sweetness of it based on your preference and how much sweetener you add to it! Love dark chocolate? Add less. Love traditional chocolate? Add more. Simple!

They also use raw honey to not only help bind them but boost the sweetness, too. Opting for raw honey that’s made locally can help you develop an immune booster to seasonal allergies. Plus, raw honey tastes amazing!

Between the cacao and the honey, these bars are sticky, sweet and everything you need for a tasty snack or to curb a chocolate craving. Kids love them because they’re chocolate and they make a much healthier after-school snack than their store-bought counterparts!

Plus, they keep well in the freezer, so whip up a big batch and grab one when you need it! If you’re looking for an easy no-bake treat, look no further. These no-bake almond cacao candy bars are for you!
