Roasted cocoa nibs

In Kerala (India), the whole beans are fermented, dried and lightly roasted and then separated from the skin and broken into smaller pieces. They're packed with pure cocoa flavor (with no added sugars) and have a crunchy texture similar to nuts.

Origin cacao nibs are made from cocoa beans grown in one country, region or even plantation. Like wine, cocoa is a "terroir" product that owes its distinctive taste and quality to the soil, climate and care of farmers.

These nibs are made from the same beans that are used to make the chocolate. The cocoa is grown in the Idukki hills in Kerala and receives the "Fine Flavour" award, a special category with peculiar taste characteristics, but also with excellent traceability, good genetics, unique origin, specific harvesting and post-harvesting practices, higher quality and certifications.
