Some facts about the way mass produced chocolate is made

Cacao is often sourced from cheap tropical countries like Africa that have the dreaded Capra beetle. When this cacao arrives in Australia, quarantine treats that cacao aggressively with methylbromide gas fumigation and irradiation to kill any remnants of the insects.

Pure Cacao Power products are sourced from South America which does not have this pestilent insect and is CERTIFIED ORGANIC by Australian Leader ACO , ensuring that you get what you're paying for in a superfood.

We guarantee a premium product with:

NO heavy metals
NON irradiated
NO petrochemical fertilizers
NO genetically modified organisms (GMO's)

Cacao Facts

Chocolate has 400 distinct flavour compounds - that's 200% more than any other food! The exotic flavoured 'criollo' variety represents only 1% of world production and is the highest priced in international commodity markets.
Cacao Power products have an anti-oxidant (ORAC) score of 95,500. To put that into perspective, that's 14 times more antioxidant flavonoids than red wine, 21 times more than green tea, and 7 times more than even dark chocolate!
Magnesium is the most common deficient major mineral even following a balanced diet - it is estimated that over 80% of Australians are chronically lacking.

Cacao contains high levels of magnesium - possibly being the best food source for magnesium available.

Magnesium can be helpful for women suffering menstrual cramps because it helps muscles relax, easing discomfort. Now you know why you crave chocolate at that time of the month.
Phenylethylamine (PEA) found in cacao products is an adrenal-related chemical that is created within the brain and released when we fall in love, and also help increase focus and alertness.
Pure raw cacao seems to diminish appetite - likely as a result of it's unusual MAO inhibitors that allow more serotonin and other neurotransmittors like anandamide (the bliss chemical) to circulate in the brain, precipitating a rejuvenating effect.
Cacao beans, nibs and powder contain no sugar and have a fat content lower than most other nuts.
The Kuna Indians of the Panamanian Islands consume significant amounts of high-flavonol cacao; they also have extremely low blood pressure that doesn't climb as they age.

	Cacao Powder Most cocoa powder is processed via the �Dutch method� meaning heat extracted (up to 150�C !) with solvents, thus destroying most of the nutrients and anti-oxidants and likely contaminating the end product. Certified Organic Cacao Power powder is cold pressed from the nibs without solvents, then fine-milled and sifted so the most bio-available cacao particles filter into the final product. As the temperature is never allowed to exceed 40�C, the powder is considered a �raw� food with all heat-sensitive vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants remaining intact, thereby maximizing digestion and absorption. In fact, our raw chocolate has over 360% more anti-oxidants than regular cacao powder. Taste the difference today!

	Raw Cacao Butter Cocao Butter is the edible natural fat of the chocolate bean, cold pressed to retain its nutritional properties and exquisite natural aroma and flavour. It takes 2.5 - 3 pounds of beans to make just one pound of cocoa butter. It's traditionally been used as a rich natural moisturiser; as a sexy and decadent massage oil; for soothing babies sore bums; in organic- based cosmetics like lipstick and balm and in luxury soapmaking. We all know the myth that 'fat is bad for you' - in fact 'good' saturated fats are important for overall health and required by the body for skin and hair quality, hormonal regulation and fertility - and are irrelevant to cholesterol and weight gain. Cacao Butter is also a great source of Vitamin E (beta- and gamma- tocopherols0 and has unique composition including the essential fatty acids Omega-6 and monounsaturated Omega-9 (oleic acid like olive oil) as well as stearic acid - an unusual fat in that it neither increases nor decreases blood cholesterol. Serving Suggestion: Warm gently until soft (melting point approx 35C / 95 F), then add as desired to raw foodist concostions, chocolate creations, smoothies or desserts - or smear on skin and lips for the ultimate moisturiser.
