KAKAO PURE:
Cacao Paste Made With Whole Native Cacao Beans*
*Specific strain/variety: Cacao Chuncho from Peru

Never tempered or conched. Stone ground only. Whole beans always.
Every batch is intentionally made and blessed.
NOT a block (in non-summer months)
KAKAO is not sold as a solid block, but rather as a granular product that you can easily scoop.
But rest assured, this is Ceremonial Cacao Paste that you're looking for.
If KAKAO was left in the sun, it would melt and return to its original block form, which we simply chopped in a food processor for your convenience.
In non-summer months, it will arrive to your doorstep as a granular product that you can scoop easily with a tablespoon.
