Soil AssociationIngredients: 100% Cacao powder
Country of Origin: Peru

Botanical Name: Theobroma cacao

Pressure and heat is then applied to the cocoa liquid to separate the ‘butter’ from the ‘cake’, leaving a solid yellow cacao butter and the soft, powdered cacao powder (the cake). Organic cacao powder is commonly used in food preparation, especially in cakes, desserts and hot chocolate, and in its natural form has a bitter, unsweetened taste.
