Cacao Beans Criollo Organic

The cocoa bean is home to quality chocolate and cocoa

The fruit of the cacao tree (Theobroma cacao) is botanically classified as a berry-like fruit and tastes like dark chocolate. Unroasted, they are an excellent way to give the body energy, a good mood, a clear mind and support a healthy lifestyle.

Cocoa beans - one of the most complex superfoods

Cocoa beans in their unroasted raw form naturally contain a rich spectrum of beneficial substances for a healthy body and a fresh mind. Cocoa beans were most commonly consumed for their antioxidant properties, such as flavonoids and anthocyanins. Their content decreases significantly when cocoa beans are roasted. In addition to cocoa beans, they are also found in fruit, vegetables, tea and red wine.

Valuable substances contained in cocoa beans are theobromine and, to a small extent, caffeine, which are good for a day full of energy. Both cocoa beans and good quality pure chocolate induce a pleasant feeling of physical fitness and mental alertness. This is why cocoa was called 'food of the gods' by the South American Indians and used for ritual purposes.

In addition to the above, cocoa beans are also an interesting source of minerals - magnesium, phosphorus, iron and potassium, which are complementary antioxidants and contribute to overall health.
