Product Notes:
You're likely familiar with the fact that fine chocolate has a high Cocoa Content, and that raw cacao beans are rich in phytonutrients called flavonoids which have antioxidant properties and are thought to be able to benefit our cardiovascular and cognitive systems. So how'd you like some 100% Cocoa Content?
The Cacao Butter Drops make a terrific base for chocolate dishes, of course, but can also make a great addition to many other desserts, or even bring an intriguing taste and aroma to salty dishes. Note, according to one source, Criollo cacao is "low in classic chocolate flavour, but rich in secondary notes of long duration," and although it is relatively rare (because hard to grow), it is a prized ingredient in the very finest types of chocolate.
