Cocoa beans 145 g

Cocoa beans are the cocoa tree beans, used to make chocolate. They are extracted from the berries, which are open and then dry.

Also commonly known as "raw cocoa", cocoa beans retain all their natural nutritional properties, as well as their intensely bitter raw flavour. Scientists are unanimous about cocoa's exceptional nutritional value, with its very high antioxidant content and very high magnesium content (as well as vitamins B and E, protein, iron, potassium, phosphorus, copper and zinc). Considered to be a completely natural, plant-based super-food, raw cocoa beans are a still not very widely appreciated source of vitality.

Applications : Cocoa beans can be consumed in several different ways. The simplest way is to just munch them as they are and enjoy them like dried fruits (10 per day). To take the edge off the bitterness, it is recommended that they are eaten with honey, maple syrup or fruit.
When ground, cocoa beans can be added to smoothies, cereal-based preparations, or to fruit and vegetable salads.
