Ingredients: Cacao nibs (Theobroma cacao, criollo), cacao liquor and panela.
All ingredients are certified organic and Fair Trade. The cacao nibs are highly antioxidant, while panela is absorbed more slowly into the bloodstream than processed cane sugar. Although it contains raw cacao nibs, the finished product is not raw because the cacao liquor is roasted and liquefied.
Cacao Crunch is a super delicious all-organic blend of highly anti-oxidant crushed chocolate beans, coated in a paste of roasted chocolate liquefied nibs, then rolled in 'panela' (an unrefined evaporated sugarcane juice treat common in South America). The taste is variously described as a chocolate explosion with a lightly smoky, nutty, coffee-like flavour....you'll LOVE it.

1. Is Cacao Crunch considered a ‘raw' product?
No, because the raw nibs are then rolled in chocolate paste (roasted, liquefied nibs) and panela (cane sugar juice evaporated with heat).
