Aztec, Mayan and Inca warriors were given Cacao Nibs before a battle or a sacred hand-ball competition. The crushed core of the cacao bean contains a wealth of essential minerals including magnesium, calcium, iron, zinc, potassium and phosphorus. Cacao is one of the richest sources of antioxidants making it the ultimate nutrition source for stamina and muscle endurance. Cacao Nibs have the same nutritional value as Cacao Paste.
Mature cacao pods are removed from the tree by hand, split open and the seeds are scooped out to be fermented for a week. The beans are dried under the sun and broken into small crunchy nibs. Enjoy on their own or as a dairy-free alternative to chocolate chips.

(Too) excellent
I keep wishing Maretai would stop selling delicious products. They are too good to resist! The nibs are fantastic and are disappearing way too fast. Packaging and delivery assistance was excellent too.

A month since ordering and not delivered
A month later and all I’m getting is emails telling me it’s “out of their hands”. Extremely disappointed.
