Superfood FAQ: Cacao Nibs

Chocolate... that's good for you? Yes, it exists. Meet Cacao Nibs. 

Have you heard of Cacao Nibs but are not exactly sure what they are or what they can actually do for you health-wise? Well we have the perfect new blog series for you!

We would love to introduce our new blog series - Superfood FAQ! This blog series will answer your most frequently asked questions about some of our superfoods.  

We first addressed Lucuma Powder and now we are onto Cacao Nibs! Learn more about these delicious superfood nibbles below! 

 

Question: What are Cacao Nibs?

AnswerThe base of everything chocolate - a cacao nib is a cacao bean that’s been chopped and broken into very small pieces. Cacao Nibs contain high amounts of theobromine which has similar effects to caffeine. They also contain a rich supply of antioxidants, dietary fiber, magnesium, potassium and are low in carbohydrates and sugar.

Healthworks Cacao Nibs are grown and harvested sustainably on small organic farms and come to you in their purest, most nutrient-rich state. They are 100% USDA certified organic, pure, and raw.  

 

Question: Do they taste like chocolate chips or dark chocolate?

Answer: Raw, organic cacao nibs can have a bitter, dark chocolate taste when eaten by themselves. Since it is raw it does not have sugar added to it nor does it go through any unhealthy processing that strips it of its many natural health benefits.

If you're not into dark chocolate like flavor, there are still other ways to incorporate it into your diet. You can use it in smoothies or recipes that call for chocolate chips which can help mask the bitter taste a bit.  

 

 

Question: How are Cacao Nibs Used?

Answer: A treat you will surely love, our Organic Cacao Nibs can help satisfy your chocolate cravings and give you powerful nutrients all at the same time. 

Try our Cacao Nibs in smoothies, yogurt, oatmeal, baked goods, ice-cream, trail mix, snack food, or as a chocolate chip alternative.  

 

Question: What's your Favorite Way to Use Cacao Nibs?

Answer: Simple is always good. We love making Superfood Banana Boats in the morning or for an afternoon snack at the office!

    Hi Joan,

    Thank you very much for your purchase. We are very sorry to hear about your experience, the cacao nibs will be very difficult to melt or grind down. Although they don’t melt down, the cacao nibs can add a great crunch on top of your oatmeal, cereal, yoghurt, pudding, smoothies, pancakes and more. We also sell cacao powder, which is of a fine consistency and can be easily mixed in beverages or liquid.
    Feel free to take a look at some of the cacao nib recipes on our website: https://healthworks.com/blogs/cacao-nib-recipes

    Here at Healthworks, customer satisfaction is very important to us, feel free to email us at info@healthworks.com with any concerns and we will do our best to help.

    I am trying to sue these in coffee, but they do not melt….they remain solid chunks on the bottom of the cup!
    Any suggestions?
