ORGANIC CACAO, paste

This is the purest form of chocolate you can get with OM Foods’ Organic Cacao, paste. After the organic cacao beans are fermented and gently roasted, the crushed nibs are ground into this thick brown liquid. This paste, also known as cacao mass or liquor, is naturally composed of 55-60% cacao butter and suspended cacao particles.

Cacao paste is essentially unsweetened baking chocolate—it often comes molded into blocks or pieces. It can be enjoyed as is for a bold taste, or easily transformed into dipping chocolate and homemade chocolate treats. It contains naturally occurring compounds like theobromine and minerals like zinc and copper. OM Foods delivers this versatile, single-ingredient base that allows you to control the sweetener and ingredients in your raw or baked desserts. The history of this ingredient is rich, with its scientific name, Theobroma cacao, meaning "drink of the gods." This paste is the ultimate starting point for all your chocolate creations.
