Customer photo review of Organic Cacao Paste

My all time favourite treat - use a double boiler to melt the cacao paste with cacao butter and then add anything from hemp seeds to goji berries and tahini. Set in moulds or inside a pitted date ... ENJOY!

Customer photo review of Organic Cacao Paste

Cacao buttons were a surprise as it was not mentioned on the website or order prior to purchasing. I was concerned about the heat applied to the cacao paste in order to form the buttons. It was most likely much more than just cacao paste extraction processes.
