cacao nibs
Cacao nibs boast a rich and vibrant history, originating in Central and South America before 1500 BC. They were utilized medicinally by the Mayan and Aztec civilizations for their ceremonial significance, fostering connection, creativity, and emotional well-being. Primarily known for their mood-enhancing properties, cacao nibs are also a healthy source of fat and protein, contributing to heart health and packed with antioxidants that combat free radicals.
