Organic Cacao Powder

This is a great cacao powder and a very competitive price. Using this using this cacao powder I was finally able to make a very delicious hot cocoa without sugar. It is not very bitter so I sweetened it with just four drops of pure stevia. Most stevias have other sweeteners or ingredients mixed in and don't taste as good as the pure stuff in my opinion. I got mine at Trader Joe's but there are pure brands that Amazon sells as well (such as Viccoky, CCNature, SweetLeaf brands). You may want it sweeter than I do - add more stevia. I mix two level tablespoons of the cacao in about 1/3 of a coffee mug of milk with an immersion blender. Add stevia as above. Speed set low and move slowly. An electric frother might work too. Once it's mixed in add milk and stir, but leave at least a half inch of room at the top. Microwave it for 1 and 1/2 minutes. Check it. Add 15 seconds at a time until it's at the temperature you like. If you do too much time it will expand / boil over the side. It is possible if I let it sit for a while after mixing it the air would leave it and it would have much less tendency to boil over. But I'm too impatient. When I'm making cocoa I want it now! This is some of the finest cacao or cocoa I have had and it is really nice to have it without my body complaining about too much sugar. Also sometimes I add it to my protein shake which is quite nice.

Excellent cacao. I will get this again. Earthy, clean, multilayered and complex in its notes like a real cocoa should be. It is very smooth and mixed in exceptionally well just a nice smooth silky texture. I’m sure it will bake well once I get to that. I use it as an energy drink with other ingredients and it’s delicious, nutritious and feels great. Love this brand and have bought other products of theirs and have liked them very much. This does not disappoint. This is just pure cacao with no other ingredients.

I've reordered this product now multiple times. I love the taste. It's fresh. I prepare it daily using 1/8th tbs in about 10 ounces of hot water. I like it straight with now additives, but I'm also a purist who enjoys bitter tasting drinks. Prepared this way Cocao wonderful healthy alternative to black coffee. On occasion, I'll prepare it in a stronger dose (1/4th) when I need steady energy without jitters for deep focused work or contemplation. I'll also mix this cacao into smoothies. Great product.

I was pleasantly surprised at how big this bag was when it came in! I got the powder all over my clothes and bedsheets by accident when I opened it, so just be careful- this powder can explode everywhere! There was loose powder above the resealable part... meaning it can fly out after you cut the top of the plastic off. Which is what happened to me. Oops. I've never tried organic raw cacao powder before, so I decided to make up a random chocolate milk concoction on the spot for me and my parents. My ingredients were a bit unconventional, but it worked! This cacao powder is very deep and rich in flavor. Its color is a medium brown, and not quite as orange like the picture depicts. It's not really bitter, but it has an almost buttery, natural chocolate flavor. It's somewhat sweet on its own, considering it doesn't have any sweeteners in it. The texture of the powder makes it comparable to water and vinegar, when stirred in cold liquid. When I stirred it into a cup of unsweetened vanilla almond milk, the clumps floating around the top just wouldn't mix in. I kepts stirring and nothing happened. It all stayed dry, like that sand that never gets wet. I eventually had to thoroughly mix the powder in with my electric frother. Even that took a good 5 minutes. I'm not saying this powder is hard or old, but its composition seems to make it difficult to stir into liquids. It resists the moisture somehow, and insists on staying dry, clumpy and powdery. I'm not used to powder being like that. I just received a bag of red beet juice powder as well (for health and mostly for diy natural lip balm color). So I just tossed some in with the almond milk and cacao. Eh... it smelled very vegetabley. So I added more cacao powder and kept tossing in more ingredients. I added organic honey with royal jelly, a couple drops of sweetened vanilla, some water, and a single packet of sugar to create about 20 oz. worth of drinks to serve 3. I presented my new "Chocolate Milk Latte" with pride. It was astonishingly tasty and delicious. My parents gulped their drinks up, and my dad told me it tasted better than Starbucks!! My mom is famous for taking teeeeeny tiny sips of drinks, at the rate of a tortoise. But this time, she was literally tossin it all back, and still sucking up the extra foam at the end! I have never witnessed my mom drink with such fervor in my life. Not once. I laughed at her and she grinned contentedly. So my experience with Terrasoul began on a very good note. This product is yummy, and perfect for desserts, cakes, milkshakes, lattes, etc. It makes an awesome alternative to less healthy, highly processed dutch cocoa. Cacao powder can be very versatile, and I look forward to whipping up more chocolate and vegatable drinks in the future! Haha. (Add super healthy ingredients where possible! It can't hurt, and no one could taste the beet powder- we only got its high antioxidants and nutrients.)

I previously bought this product and I really enjoyed this Cacao it is yummy to me, flavorful, it blends well, and I like the over all color of this product. I use it t for baking and with the holiday season it would be used frequently, but it was delivered to me damaged (opened) making it in usable, for safety reasons. I cannot and will not use it! I am very disappointed because I really enjoyed this product, but now I am a little let about buying it online again.

Tastes amazing. I have been looking for a good cocoa powder to use, hersheys tastes bad, ghiridelli isnt any good, any other popular brands are just gross. This one finally passed the test!! And it’s organic which is great. Will be my go to for recipes that call for cocoa powder. If you’re looking for a good cocoa powder, get this one. I love this brand and it’s other products (like their nuts and seeds).

This was honestly a very pleasant surprise. I am a very picky eater and have been trying to make my daily mocha healthier. I paired this with a little bit of date syrup and it tasted great and blended well. Highly recommend!

Drinking in my 2 cups of morning coffee for the great health benefits, this is the best tasting cocoa I've tried and it stirs in better than any other cocoa I've used. Price is really great for the size/amount of high quality, great tasting cocoa you get. Size, health benefits, easy to stir, delicious, this is the one!!
