Enjoy Delicious Flavor and Essential Nutrients
Raw cacao is packed with nutrients and tastes delicious. It also has a variety of different uses. Our cacao product line includes organic chocolate syrup, hot chocolate mix, cacao butter, powder, and nibs. You can use cacao in your favorite baked goods, drinks, trail mix, snacks, and more.
Unlike cocoa powder, which is made after the cacao has been roasted, our powdered cacao maintains its natural enzymes and healthy fats. We skip the roasting process, which causes cacao to lose most of its natural nutrients and rich and robust flavor. Our cacao is packed with vitamin C, fiber, protein, iron, flavonoids, and antioxidants, so if you’re wondering where to buy cacao powder that is good for you and tastes great, look no further than our raw cacao products.

Frequently Asked Questions
Now that you know where to buy cacao powder, read our FAQs to learn more about this superfood and enjoy its delicious taste and nutrient benefits.
Is Raw Cacao the Same as Cocoa?
No. While both cacao and cocoa are made from beans from the cacao plant, cocoa is alkalized or Dutch-processed, which many people believe is a negative because this may reduce its nutritional benefits. Cocoa is highly processed and roasted at high temperatures and contains added sugars and fats. Cacao on the other hand is made from beans that are not roasted and minimally processed to retain its original nutrients.
Which Is Healthier Cocoa or Cacao?
Cacao is healthier than cocoa because it’s made from beans that are not roasted and processed at low temperatures. Cocoa powder is roasted and processed at high temperatures which causes it to lose much of its nutritional value. In addition, cocoa powder also contains added sugar and fats.
Is It Safe to Drink Raw Cacao?
Yes! Cacao in its raw form is completely safe for drinking and is an excellent source of antioxidants. A gram of cacao contains more antioxidants than most berries. However, it’s rich in caffeine and calories so it should be consumed in moderation.
How Do You Eat Organic Cacao?
There are many ways to consume cacao and cacao nibs. You can use the power to make cacao recipes like hot chocolate, chocolate cake, or chocolate nut butter cups. You can use the butter as a dairy butter substitute in recipes. You can also use raw cacao nibs for baked goodies, and granolas, or even add them to ice cream for an extra chocolatey kick. One of our favorite cacao nib recipes is our hot brewed cacao.
