Peruvian Criollo Cacao Powder

Our same great Peruvian Criollo Cacao, but Powdered! To do this, we have removed the Cacao Butter so that you are left with pure powdered cacao. This Cacao Powder is wonderful on porridge, in smoothies, for baking, and for making Hot Chocolate drinks.

Cacao powder is a superfood, high in Antioxidants and Favanols & is a natural source of fibre, protein, potassium, and magnesium. It is also a natural Mood Enhancer. I work with a small farmer's cooperative in Peru.

The important principles behind the Peruvian cooperative are that they work based on:

• Quality rather than quantity,
• Diversity, fostering Andean mega-biodiversity, not homogenization,
• Promoting an organic system of production,
• Income distribution among the people that participate as suppliers, transformers, and traders, and
• Social responsibility, following the principles of fair trade.

They work in association with small farmers, generating employment for the local population; they offer advice on their organization as small entrepreneurs by providing training and financial support, thereby raising the living standards of the small farmers while at the same time increasing their crop yield.
