Why we love this recipe with our cacao
Our ceremonial cacao is 100% cacao. That means, unlike cocoa powder, it isn't over processed & defatted. It's full of nutrients and the cacao butter is still present, which turns this Chocolate Orange Tart into a rich delicacy. Using these simple ingredients alongside our cacao makes for a healthy & decadent treat.
