Chocolate covered cocoa nibs.

Longing for a wholesome chocolate snack? How about chocolate nibs, roasted bits of cocoa drenched in dark chocolate?

They're almost as nourishing as raw cacao nibs, but they taste so much better.

With a chocolate coating, they're more like candy with a really nutritious center.

So if you're not ready for raw but want the next best thing, try them.

They're just right if you find the concept of natural food more appealing than its taste.




Chocolate Cacao Nibs

What are they? A healthy chocolate snack that tastes like candy.

Nibs are crunchy pieces of cocoa bean that are fermented, roasted, and dipped in dark chocolate.

They retain more cocoa goodness than highly processed chocolate products.

Roasting does destroy some of the beneficial antioxidants in the cocoa. But believe me, it's necessary to improve their chocolate flavor.

The taste of raw cocoa nibs is well...kinda different. Not a taste you would enjoy unless you're a wild child.

Nibs candy tastes s-o-o-o much better. Ok, occasionally a piece will have a slightly bitter taste. But that just makes them more fun to eat.

You never know when you're going to get a little surprise. Not to worry, the dark chocolate coating lessens that.

They're so good you can eat healthy and enjoy it. No guilt and no sacrifice.




Cocoa Nibs Nutrition

What's in this healthy chocolate for you? Chocolate nibs are a source of...

  • antioxidants -help your body fight some types of disease
  • carbohydrates
  • essential minerals-calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, and zinc
  • fat-cocoa butter doesn't raise cholesterol
  • dietary fiber
  • protein

They're a good source of energy too, making them an ideal afternoon pick-me-up. One that'll satisfy your chocolate craving and your desire for health benefits.

Tasty and nutritious, there's just no reason not to try them. Treat yourself. You can buy chocolate nibs off the net or from a Whole Foods Market.
