Peruvian Criollo Cacao Discs 300g - Rare Native Variety from the Andes

These raw cacao drops consist of 100% pure, unroasted Criollo cacao beans - one of the most valued cacao varieties in the world. The beans come directly from small cooperatives in the Peruvian Amazon, where they grow without chemical additives or synthetic fertilizers among other crops. This traditional growing method protects the rainforest and creates rich, complex flavors.

The careful processing below 42°C keeps all natural properties of the cacao bean intact. The result is a fine-grained mass with an intense flavor profile: bitter, slightly acidic, and earthy - the authentic expression of the cacao plant itself, without any additions. Unlike sweetened industrial products, you get the full aromatic spectrum of the bean here, exactly as nature made it.

Key features: 100% Criollo cacao without additives. Processed below 42°C to preserve all properties. Naturally rich in magnesium, iron, copper, and zinc. Authentic, complex taste. Directly and fairly sourced from Peruvian small-scale farmers.

Why Raw Criollo Cacao?

★ Unroasted quality

With raw cacao, the beans aren't roasted but only dried and gently processed. This keeps valuable minerals like magnesium, iron, zinc, and copper intact. These minerals contribute to normal energy metabolism and help reduce fatigue.

★ Pure Criollo taste

Criollo cacao is known for its refined, complex flavor. The gentle processing lets you taste the full depth of the bean - with all its bitter, acidic, and earthy notes. This is cacao for those who want to taste the difference between industrial products and artisanal work.

★ Direct from the source

This cacao comes directly from cooperatives in the Amazon region. No middlemen, no detours - just direct collaboration that ensures fair prices and authentic quality. The beans grow organically among other crops, which protects the rainforest and promotes biodiversity.

Use and dosage

These drops are versatile in use. For drinking chocolate: melt 20-30 grams in a double boiler with milk or plant-based milk, sweeten to taste if desired, and spice with cinnamon or cacao spices. For smoothies and energy balls: add directly to the mixture. For baking: don't heat above 42°C to maintain the raw quality. Also suitable for savory mole sauces or creative fusion dishes. Start with small amounts to get to know the intense flavor.

Ingredients

Pure Criollo cacao without any additions - nothing more. The beans are dried and processed below 42°C into these fine drops, keeping all natural properties intact.

What is the difference between cacao drops and cacao paste?

Cacao drops are small discs that melt faster than a block of cacao paste, eliminating the need for a knife or grater. The base ingredient is identical: 100% pure cacao mass without additives. The difference is purely in form, making drops more convenient for quick preparation of ceremonial drinks or smoothies.

How do you prepare a ceremonial cacao drink with Criollo drops?

Melt 20 to 30 grams of drops in a double boiler or in warm plant-based milk below 42°C to preserve the raw quality. Stir slowly until you have a smooth, creamy drink. Add cinnamon, cayenne pepper, or honey to taste if desired. For a full ceremonial experience, use 35 to 42 grams per person and drink the cacao slowly and mindfully.

Why is Peruvian Criollo cacao so special?

Criollo is the rarest and most prized cacao variety in the world, making up only a small percentage of global cacao production. This Peruvian variant grows in the Amazon region using traditional methods among other crops. The flavor profile is intense and complex, with bitter, slightly acidic, and earthy tones you will not find in industrial cacao. Learn more about the differences between cacao varieties.
