Raw Cacao Nibs Organic Unsweetened | Premium Peruvian Cacao Nibs 1Lb | USDA certified Organic | Vegan, Paleo

These cacao nibs are great! In the past, I've had trouble seeing the appeal of cacao nibs. They have a nice crunchy texture, yes, but the taste?!? Ugh. But THESE nibs are great. Yes, they are super bitter. But they also have a subtle chocolatey / fruity flavor. And a wonderful crunch, though a little softer than the other brands I have tried (which I like! Less hard on the teeth!). And no trash bits, as other reviewers have mentioned. If you want to try out cacao nibs, these are the ones to try! I like them on top of oatmeal or in yogurt.

My husband and I have smoothies everyday and cacao nibs are the highlight--both for nutritional reasons, texture, energy and taste. We've tried several different brands of nibs, both from the store and from Amazon and these are my favorite. Some nibs aggravate my reflux. These do not. Some have hard pieces of shell in them. So far, I have not encountered any with Mamapacha. The taste is smooth and chocolatey and less bitter/harsh than other brands. I sprinkled some on ice cream last night--something I've never been tempted to do with another brand. Great product.

I am loving these cocoa nibs! I especially enjoy about a tablespoon sprinkled on top of oatmeal. I make a very healthy (gluten free) cookie recipe and used cocoa nibs instead of dark chocolate chips and they were very good. I plan to mix it in granola. I tend to break out from eating prepared chocolate but not from these cocoa nibs. They are bitter but a treat at the same time. They are very healthy--check the health benefits for yourself.

This is one of the more richer types of cacao nibs that I've tasted. About as rich tasting as coffee beans. I've tasted a lot of cacao nibs from various vendors, and some are bitter, some are a tiny bit sweet, and some are bland. So if you like a rich taste, these seem to be good. I did encounter a shell fragment in the first scoop of the bag. Not a good sign. And yes, other manufacturers sometimes have shells in their bags too. But when you find one in your first scoop...

These are great... I either snack on a few for a pick me up. Few people know that natural cacao has theobromine, another natural stimulant similar to caffeine that boosts energy. And for me a little goes a long way. And it releases those feel-good chemicals called endorphins. So I just munch on a small handful or brew a hot cup of water and grind up some cacao nibs and make a hot cocoa with water and a little bit of sugar. I prefer it it to caffeine as I am a tad caffeine sensitive due to insomnia and for me, like I said... A tiny bit goes a long way. So I don't need too much.

These cacao nibs are great. I included the pictures so you can see for yourself. Fresh, no shells or dirt, very nutty and delicious. I did a lot of research before purchasing these as I have PCOS and my hormones are all out of wack and I don’t want to put anything in my body that will make my condition worse. Be careful with cacao as it can have heavy metals in it that are damaging to your body. These are pure Peruvian cacao nibs and I love them!

This is my fault,I should have tried to find a sample of this first.... or done more research..This has a crunch like your biting a coffee bean or something and a bitterness like bittersweet chocolateonly NO sweet....I received a nice big bag over flowing w/soo many nibs I had to put the bag in to a ziploc bag to protect it because it was too full after opening to re close properly.... Generous amount,timely shipping but for meinedible and I don't know what to do w/them to be quite honest.... I thought cacao would be at least a little like chocolate and a great substitute and snack ..... not for me... if this is what the product is supposed to be like then they are doing a great job.. really... I just don't know and wish I had a friend to give this to because I don't want to waste it...

I will admit that I am a "newbie" to the "cacao nibs world". I wanted to TRY them as something nutritious to nosh on, and I gave 3 stars, ONLY because I discovered that they really weren't something I'd care to eat by itself. They are pricey, but they are fair-trade organic, and cacao is hard to come by. I am aware of all of these things. However, the seller was wonderful...everything was on time, and sealed even with an outer protective bag, going above and beyond keeping it clean and healthy. No unwanted chunks of debris or hard pieces have been discovered as of yet, and I am very pleased with this product for that reason. I did NOT have any prior knowledge of exactly what could be done with cacao nibs (other than smoothies or eating), but low and behold....the seller read my mind, and provided me (as a token of thanks for purchasing their product), a PDF of RECIPES for the cacao nibs!! Super psyched to try them, and THANK YOU! Therefore... I WILL NOT give up on cacao nibs, JUST YET! :D
