About maca
Maca is a root from Peru. It looks like a little turnip or radish, and is a traditional staple food in Peru. Its Latin name is Lepidium Peruvianum Chacon, but you don't have to remember that! It's also known as Peruvian ginseng, or Amazonian ginseng, but isn't related to ginseng at all.
Our maca comes dried and ground into a powder, is certified organic and is not cooked. It is non-toxic and contains no dangerous side-effects or withdrawal symptoms.

About cacao powder
Our raw organic cacao powder is created by cold-pressing cacao beans into a cake separating the oil from the protein and fibre. Slowly, the pure, liquid cacao butter begins to sift off down a stainless steel valve. The remaining dry 'cake-like' material is then cold-ground, fine-milled and sifted so that only the finest, most bio-available raw cacao particles filter through into the finished product. This allows for maximum digestion and antioxidant absorption. It has a delightful, full, antioxidant-rich chocolate flavour.

About carob powder
Our raw organic carob powder comes from the pods of organically certified trees in Italy. It's full-bodied and sweet. It's a crystal-like powder that freshens up and cools all recipes and gives extra depth to chocolate recipes in particular.
Regular carob powder is usually cooked to at least 200 degrees Fahrenheit, whereas this is never heated above 100 degrees F (37 degrees C) during its unique grinding process, making it a wonderful raw food.

About cacao nibs
Already peeled and kibbled, cacao nibs are very easy to pour into smoothies and other delights. You can eat them straight or in a trail mix. Try sprinkling on your breakfast. Add to a touch of agave nectar or another sweetening agent and chew.

About cacao liquor
Raw organic cacao liquor isn't alcoholic, as its name may imply! It's just the ground up raw beans that would normally be separated into raw chocolate powder and raw cacao butter. We find it works so well in chocolate recipes, that we decided to be the first to import it into the UK.
Try grating it and sprinkling on your breakfast. Add to a touch of agave nectar or another sweetening agent and chew. Freeze grated cacao liquor with sweeteners (agave nectar is fantastic). Eat cold. Blend cacao liquor into herbal teas with the Peruvian ecstatic food maca. Grate and add to raw ice creams for the best chocolate chips in the world.
