by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
(NaturalNews) Fans of chocolate, rejoice! I have just personally overseen the USDA certified 100% organic production run of several hundred kilos of cacao powder and cacao nibs, fresh from Peru.
Small and large bags of both the powder and the nibs are available now in the Natural News Store.
This is 100% pure cacao, with NO fillers, NO maltodextrin, NO flow agents, NO excipients and NO GMO.
Here are the four items available now:
100% USDA certified organic cacao powder 5 oz.
100% USDA certified organic cacao powder 16 oz.
100% USDA certified organic cacao nibs 6 oz.
100% USDA certified organic cacao nibs 22 oz.
How to use cacao powder and nibs
These cacao powders and nibs are outstanding for use in:
• Chocolate smoothies
• Chocolate baking recipes
• Granola and trail mixes (nibs)
• "Dusting" almonds, cashews and other nuts (powder)
• Making your own delicious chocolate pudding using a food processor, frozen bananas, avocados and cacao powder!

Our organic superfood philosophy: No flow agents or fillers
In order to bring you the most pure, unadulterated superfoods possible, we've invested in special machinery that allows us to pack organic powders without using flow agents. The most commonly used flow agent in the industry is maltodextrin, derived from genetically modified corn. What many consumers do not know is that flow agents do not have to be listed on labels. So if you buy superfood powders from other sources that use flow agents, you can be consuming as much as 30% GMO maltodextrin without even knowing it. (We've found GMO maltodextrin in just about every fruit, vegetable and superfood powder you can imagine...)
Here at Natural News, we have a strict policy that bans conventional (GMO) maltodextrin from our food production facility. Plus, we do not even handle non-organic cacao in our facility, so 100% of all the cacao we package is USDA certified organic.
Certified organic, not just claimed to be organic
Some retailers package cacao that they call "organic" but they have no certification for it. This means they do not follow organic procedures for sourcing, tracking, production, audit trails and so on.
The Natural News facility is USDA certified, inspected and audited for total compliance with all relevant organic procedures, including using USDA-approved cleaning solutions for all food contact surfaces on the filling machines.
All our cacao production is logged and batched in full compliance with FDA food safety regulations. We know the exact date of when each lot was produced, and we know the batch number of the raw materials used in creating that lot. We have Certificates of Authentication on file for each raw material, complete with country of origin, pesticide residue test results and, where applicable, metals testing.
I believe this cacao is the cleanest, most potent and most fresh cacao powder and nibs being offered anywhere in North America. Your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed, and you'll actually taste the potency when you try these!
