Unroasted Cacao Beans

Beschrijving

Whole cacao beans in their most natural form, intense, complex and naturally crunchy. Break them, grind them fresh or enjoy them whole as a pure cacao snack.

  • Hand-peeled and never heated, helping preserve their naturally occurring cacao flavanols
  • Independently tested for purity and quality
  • UV-treated for food safety—without roasting, heat treatment or industrial shelling

Flava’Choc Hand-Peeled Cacao Beans offer cacao in its most complete and minimally processed form. Sourced from Bundibugyo in western Uganda, each bean is carefully peeled by hand without roasting, heat treatment or mechanical shelling.

Instead of conventional heat treatment, the beans are treated with UV light for food safety while keeping their natural fats, minerals, polyphenols and cacao character as close as possible to their original state.

The beans have a distinctive flavour profile with notes of nuts, berries and pineapple, followed by a subtle spicy finish. Enjoy them whole as an intense cacao snack or grind them fresh for drinks, breakfasts, desserts and recipes.
