Cocoa
Cacao is known as the food of the gods since ancient times. We know chocolates have cacao, but what most people don´t know is that most of them barely have it, as they just need 25% of it to be considered chocolate. Moreover, many mainstream bars are not even part of this group, as they are mostly made of sugar, fat, and chemicals.
When we talk about cacao we are going to a whole new level, considering a superb taste and a top-level quality. They are 100% natural, so they keep all its properties: fiber, caffeine, magnesium, and as many antioxidants as green tea. Some doctors say that it helps you to overcome stress and lower bad cholesterol, preventing heart diseases and diabetes. Cacao can be added to a variety of dishes, from sweet to savory. They are a great addition to homemade trail mix, granola, or pasta, and would go smooth on top of your favorite sundae. They can also be eaten alone as a super tasty and healthy gourmet snack.
