Raw cocoa beans are the basis of chocolate, but without refined sugars, milk, or additives. Raw cocoa, therefore, does not taste sweet, but rather bitter. Cocoa in its purest form! Cocoa beans taste delicious and do great for breakfast, for example. Grind the organic cocoa beans in a mortar or blender so that it also uses the nutrients in the shell. Delicious for yogurt or as a finishing touch on sweet cakes.
