THE Antioxidant Powerhouse Cacao is one of nature's most abundant sources of antioxidants, natural chemicals that prevent or slow cell damage. Flavonoids in cacao are good for the heart. Resveratrol helps protect the nervous system. Cacao is a rich source of magnesium, iron, potassium, calcium, fiber. Is Cacao Different than Cocoa? Cacao is the raw form of chocolate. Cocoa is roasted at high temperatures, highly processed, and contains sugar or cocoa butter. Raw cacao is cold-pressed unroasted cocoa beans, preserving enzymes and removing fat. Food of the Gods Theobroma, botanical name for the cacao bean tree, translates as "food of the gods," native to tropics of the Americas, with medicinal qualities revered for centuries. Joyfuel Cacao Powder is the Arriba Nacional variety, known for its aromatic, rich flavor without bitterness, unsweetened, and sugar free. Farmed Sustainably, Processed Naturally Sourced from small farms in Ecuador. Natural cold-pressing methods without solvents or chemicals ensure all nutrients remain intact. Boost Energy and Happiness The theobromine in cacao slowly releases energy, effective and less intense than caffeine.

Enormous decline in quality
This used to be my absolute favorite cacao powder. I have tried many brands of raw cacao sold on Amazon. Joyfuel used to stand far and above all the others, with a rich, floral aroma unmatched by any other cacao I have ever tried. However, the product recently underwent a drastic change and is now inedible. It tastes bitter and rancid like moldy wood powder, rather than cacao.The only reason I gave the product two stars is the incredible customer service provided by the company. Not only did they refund my purchase, but they also provided several replacement bags in hopes that I had simply received a single bad batch. Unfortunately, all of the replacements tasted just as bad.When the product returns to its former quality, I will give it an unconditional five stars. Until then, find an alternative.

"Brown" Magic
This is the real thing: truly dark, nutrient-dense, and flavorful cacao powder. It s my favorite, so far, of those I have tried, although I didn't know what to base my expectations on when I began trying them. Not at all disappointing; in fact, a surprisingly great cacao. .Also like that it is available in the 2-lb. size, a better bargain. While I've never liked bagged foods, this package is thick, slick and sturdy, sits upright, and doesn't cause waste as it is easier to open and close. I've made hot chocolate with it and frequently add it to my morning cup of java; it dissolves well, leaves very little dregs in the bottom of the cup. I plan eventually to make it my sole morning drink if I can get fully weaned from caffeine.

Good value
It may seem a little spendy, but it's 2 lbs of finely ground cacao, so worth it. I can't say whether it's as pure as they claim, but it seems to be. Nice flavor too. I will likely purchase again down the road.

BIG DISAPPOINTMENT IN THE 5 LB.
This had been my favorite chocolate until I wanted to expand my production and bought the 5 pound bag.Sadly, it isn't "rich dark chocolate." Its a really light color and has a very mild taste.NEVER AGAIN will I make that mistake.

Love it! Great to mix with non-flavored whey protein powder.
Absolutely amazing! I mix one tbs of this with 1 scoop of whey protein powder so I can just mix it with water or milk and chug it. The cacao makes it taste really good without having all those crappy artificial flavors and gives a ton of antioxidants as well as a little caffeine shot right after my workout. It also tastes more mild than I thought it would, it's not bitter or sharp at all, but still very flavorful. I will be buying this again once mine is finished.

Kids love it
Super Fast Shipment. I bought this so I could give my kids a more natural as well as organic and raw form of chocolate without feeling guilty about the sugar content. They absolutely loved it the first time I made them a smoothy. Now they want it in everything from yogurt to chocolate milk drinks. I will definitely buy more for this great price only on Amazon.

It did taste like legit pudding even though there was no dairy in ...
Im not sure how much more I can say...its cacao powder. The powder is very chocolatey, and my clients (parents) can tell the difference between cookies made with this and with my usual go-to powder (Trader Joes, which I still use). I made one of the recipes in the free PDF that the maker sends (a chocolate pudding which utilizes tahini paste for a nutty base). It did taste like legit pudding even though there was no dairy in it.
