Raw cacao refers to unprocessed or minimally processed cacao beans and products derived from them.
Unlike traditional cocoa products, which undergo roasting and sometimes alkalising processes, raw cacao products are typically made from beans that have been dried at low temperatures and not subjected to high heat during processing.
Raw cacao products may include:
-
Raw Cacao Beans: Whole, unprocessed cacao beans that have been harvested, fermented, and dried at low temperatures without roasting.
-
Raw Cacao Nibs: Crushed cacao beans that have been broken into small pieces. Nibs retain the natural flavour and nutritional properties of cacao and can be eaten as a snack or used in recipes.
-
Raw Cacao Powder: Ground cacao beans that have been processed at low temperatures to create a fine powder. Raw cacao powder retains more of the natural nutrients and antioxidants found in cacao compared to traditional cocoa powder.
-
Raw Cacao Butter: The fat extracted from cacao beans. Raw cacao butter is typically cold-pressed to preserve its natural properties and is commonly used in chocolate making and skincare products.
Raw cacao is often praised for its rich flavour and high nutritional content. It is a rich source of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and other beneficial compounds, making it a popular choice for health-conscious consumers. Raw cacao products are also often considered suitable for vegan, paleo, and other specialty diets due to their minimal processing and natural ingredients.
