. . . preserves the odor and the pleasantly piquant taste and keeping qualities of cacao beans that have been fermented to just the right extent. This grinds to powder in your bladed coffee grinder or a blender easily and that homemade powder tastes vastly fresher and better than store bought powder. Homemade cacao powder mixed with peanut or any nut butter and natural sweetener, like green stevia, makes a fantastic substitute for junk spreads such as Nutella.

Tasty beans not bitter. I eat them for nutritional snack. Will buy more soon. I’m eating a couple of handfuls per day.

I like it too much

I really like this beans. The beans were of really high quality. I have to say that I bought them with the intention of eating it plain like I read some people wrote on their reviews do. But oh my gosh! Eating them plain is a torture! They taste awful! Só now I add them to my oats pancakes and to my protein shake. I ordered another bag today and I was shocked on how much they are costing now! I bought them last December and I paid less than $20, today they are costing $36,99! I would like to know what caused such an increase on the price!

I don't have anything to which compare these beans, but I enjoyed using them to make crio bru as well as homemade chocolate. Both were delicious. I did find it difficult to winnow. I came back two years later to buy more and it has gone from $20 to $55. Not going to buy more, but for those who want to post that much, it's a good product.
