100% Cacao Unsweetened Wafers, 5lb. Bag (Pack of 1)

The Ghirardelli 100% Cacao Unsweetened Wafers have become a long‑term favorite in our home. The quality is exactly what you’d expect from Ghirardelli — rich, smooth cacao with a deep chocolate flavor that works well for baking, melting, or adding to recipes that need pure cocoa without any added sugar. My mom enjoys taking one wafer a day simply because she likes the taste and believes it’s a good addition to her routine. While it’s not something backed by medical or scientific claims, it’s a small daily habit she enjoys, and she’s turning 83 this year — still active, still working, and living a full, productive life. For her, these wafers have become a simple, enjoyable part of her day. The 5‑pound bag is a great value, especially if you use cacao regularly. The wafers store well, melt evenly, and stay fresh for a long time when kept sealed. Amazon makes it easy to compare sizes and prices, and this bulk option is definitely worth it if you go through cacao quickly. What I Liked Deep, rich 100% cacao flavor Smooth texture that melts evenly Great for baking, drinks, or daily use Excellent value in the 5‑lb bulk bag Stays fresh for a long time when stored properly Amazon helps you find the best price and size Things to Keep in Mind Completely unsweetened — best for those who enjoy pure cacao The bulk bag is large, so plan for storage Overall These Ghirardelli cacao wafers are high‑quality, versatile, and a great value for anyone who loves pure chocolate. Whether you use them for baking or as part of a daily routine, they deliver consistent flavor and freshness.

Love Ghirardelli chocolate. It's rich and tastes like those fancy French and Belgium chocolates, maybe even better. You get a huge bag of dark rich unsweetened chocolate to make whatever you fancy. The wafers tend to melt more smoothly than the chips do (chips usually have some kind of ingredient added so they stay whole in cookies, etc.). I will get plenty of use out of these wonderful chocolate wafers. I plan to make low-carb candies and nuts with them. Maybe some baking too.

The best dark baking chips yet. I was so pleased to find this product on amazon. The bag is huge, but that's a good thing; it will last a while in an air tight container in my pantry. Also I love the smooth way this chocolate melts. There is no sugar added, so I can control that on my end - I use my own blend of homemade vanilla sugar when I make drinks with these chips. This chocolate was easy to temper too, which I found to easier than usual, not sure why. Very excited to make authentic rich hot chocolate now.

The best chocolate of this company. I make chocolate candy and chocolate bars. Never I hade in store, like I do.

I thought these were the worst tasting cacao wafers I or cacao period, that I ever tasted. It doesn't taste near as good as the other brands I purchased in the past but I am now getting used to the taste and the quality I received and freshness helps make up for that. I see other people got bags have melted so I guess it happens to all companies now and then seeing that's why I tried this brand. Last bag I got from a different company was a disaster. I do not like how once you cut the bag open, which is VERY big, you cannot reseal it. That makes no sense. But yeah, the taste is nothing to write home about but at least they are fresh and seem very good quality. UPDATE: As fresh and quality "looking" these wafers are, they still taste nastier than any other brand I've tried and while I did get used to the nasty taste as I LOVE the affect and energy cacao gives me, so I can sacrifice the taste to an extent for the affect. But I've now noticed they make me feel a little nauseous and honestly kind of crappy. So bought the old brand just to see if it was something else causing it. And not only did the old brand make me feel like cacao normally makes me feel as well as tasting WAY better, but also I didn't need to eat half as much to get me charged up and going. I'll Never buy these again 🤮

Doctor told asked me, “how’d you reduce your cholesterol?” I told my doctor I ate 100% dark cacao 10 to 20 chips per day for 1 month and my bad cholesterol went down and my good cholesterol went up! 100% dark cacao is great when there is no sugar or less sugar!

I love these and have ordered previously but the increase in price is prohibitively expensive!!

This is the real thing. All chocolate - no sugar. I like to make terrific food that is healthy, not loaded with sugar and brings raves from friends. This is the chocolate I use. I love the deep chocolate taste that works in cookies and one of my favorite non-dairy, no back cheesecake. If you enjoy healthy cooking, this is what you need.

Very high quality

as advertised the price is very volatile

Excellent quality. Low heavy metal count (see the Consumer Reports article on heavy metals in chocolate)
