Cocoa beans containing more than 300 active ingredients, including phenyl, ethylamine and serotonin, are the basis of chocolate production.
The theobroma cacao tree, which originates from the tropical climate of South America, is the sacred tree of the Mayans and Aztecs. Cacao beans are a delicious superfood because they contain a variety of antioxidants and other nutrients. Cacao beans produced by organic producers in Peru contain more antioxidants than red wine and three times more than green tea. Cocoa beans are a rich source of minerals. The raw beans are picked by hand, the best quality ones are selected and fermented to reduce their initial bitterness. To make cocoa paste, it is ground and then the paste is melted to make it into a liquid. The liquid is cooled and turned into chips.
The three types of fat saturated with cocoa antioxidants, which make up 50% of its mass, are not harmful to our body and do not increase cholesterol (oleic acid, stearic acid and palmitic acid), and also contain several amino acids (tryptophan and arginine). Cocoa mass is not only the most important raw material for making chocolate, but also one of the most popular foods in the world. Peruvian BioMenü Cacao Massa Tallér is a tasty superfood.
