Raw Cacao nibs are the "raw material" for making raw cacao powder and raw cacao butter. They are the raw, fermented cacao bean that has had the outer peeling removed. They can be used like a chocolate chip, though they are firmer and will not melt at the same temperatures. These cacao nibs come from beans raised organically without the use of pesticides, herbicides or chemicals of any kind. They are also purchased as fair trade from Peru.
