KAKAO POWDER 
 Cocoa is the essence of "Theobroma cacao", a small green tree that grows in tropical climates. Cocoa is best known for being the base of the chocolate industry, but it is a useful source of power in its own way. The cocoa bean is rich in antioxidants, also contains different kinds of amino acids and different minerals such as magnesium. Rawpowder cocoa powder is made of the Criollo variety which is often called "Queen of Cacao" because of its high quality. 
 Cocoa is, as I said, extremely rich in antioxidants , even more than the Acai berry . A well-regarded study looked at its effects on a people in Panama , comparing a group that was allowed to drink large quantities of raw cocoa with a different lifestyle with modern eating habits . The results were astonishing : The cocoa consuming group showed significantly lower stroke, cardiovascular disease and cancer than the other. 

 PRODUCTION 
 Rawpowder's Cocoa is produced by organic farmers in Peru. The large chocolate fruit is split in half and then fermented. It is the pulp that surrounds the beans that is fermented and eventually flows away as liquid. This process reduces some of the bitterness of the bean. After that, the beans are thoroughly washed and then dried. The dry beans are peeled and their kernels extracted into small pieces, then the fat is separated from the cocoa which is then ground to powder, the final product still raw and without additives packaged and distributed. 

 INGREDIENTS
