Description

1. Who Am I: Unroasted Criollo Cacao
Unroasted Criollo cacao is a rare, high-quality product made from Criollo cacao beans, one of the most prized varieties in the world. Grown in tropical climates, this cacao is carefully harvested and dried to preserve its natural aromas, without undergoing the roasting process. With its fruity, floral, and slightly tangy notes, unroasted Criollo cacao offers a pure and intense taste experience, capturing the essence of cacao itself.

2. Culinary Uses
This unroasted cacao is perfect for recipes where quality and intensity of flavor are paramount. Ideal for smoothies, raw desserts (such as truffles and raw brownies), or homemade chocolates, it brings a natural richness of aroma. Its subtle flavors also make it an excellent choice for chocolate beverages, cacao infusions, and even savory dishes like meat sauces, adding an intense and unsweetened touch.

3. A Little History
Originating from Central and South America, Criollo is considered the ancestor of cacao varieties. Known for its superior quality and complex flavors, Criollo cacao is rare, accounting for less than 5% of global cacao production. Its unroasted state preserves all its natural nutrients and antioxidants, making it highly valued in raw food recipes and healthy nutrition.

4. Recipe Ideas

  • Criollo Cacao Smoothie: Add a teaspoon of Criollo cacao to a banana and cashew smoothie for a rich, nutrient-packed drink.
  • Raw Cacao Truffles: Mix Criollo cacao with date puree and nuts for healthy, raw truffles.
  • Intense Hot Chocolate: Infuse Criollo cacao in warm plant-based milk for a chocolate drink with deep, natural flavors.
  • Cacao Meat Sauce: Add a touch of Criollo cacao to a meat sauce (such as Mexican mole) for depth and slightly bitter notes.
