Cacao Real nibs are nature's original chocolate chips. From Soconusco in southern Mexico, the birthplace of the “cacao real”, or Royal Cacao, Cacao Real Nibs come from cacao beans that are harvested, roasted and crushed into nibs or chips.  Once consumed by Aztec kings and priests, Cacao Real Nibs are crunchy, flavourful and packed with powerful nutrients, and delivered to you "from farm to fork."

What Does It Taste Like? 

Cacao nibs have a bitter, earthy complex flavor of unsweetened dark chocolate, Toast raw nibs in a dry skillet before you use them to tame the bitterness and give them a little nuttiness and even more crunch.

How Is It Used?

You can use raw or roasted cacao nibs in a variety of dishes, from sweet to savory. A teaspoon or two will be a great addition to your morning muesli or smoothie or they can simply be an alternative for chocolate when you are craving something sweet.
