Cacao nibs are small pieces of crushed cacao beans that retain the natural integrity and nutrients of the cacao bean. They are lightly roasted to bring out the deep, earthy flavors and a slight bitterness. Theobroma cacao was traditionally used for its wellness properties and as a ceremonial beverage by ancient Mesoamerican cultures. Native to the tropical regions of Central and South America, cacao beans have been cultivated for centuries by civilizations such as the Mayans and Aztecs, who revered them for both culinary and medicinal purposes. Cacao has been historically used in herbal medicine for its potential to energize the body and uplift the spirit, often utilized in traditional remedies. Nowadays, cacao nibs are prized for their rich source of antioxidants, iron, and magnesium.*
