What Makes Cacao Nibs so Good
Cacao comes from the seeds of the Theobroma cacao tree — a name that translates to “food of the gods.” This tree bears large pods filled with cacao beans, which are the starting point of everything from fine chocolate to raw superfoods.
While most of us are familiar with cocoa powder (the heavily processed sibling of cacao), fewer have experienced cacao in its purest form: the cacao nib.
What Are Cacao Nibs?
Cacao nibs are simply the cracked, edible pieces of cacao beans — minimally processed and bursting with the naturally deep, bitter-sweet flavour of raw cacao.
Unlike conventional cocoa products, Ausha's Organic Cacao Nibs are kept raw and unsweetened, retaining the richness of the bean in its most natural state.
A Wholesome Option
One of the things that sets Ausha Organic Cacao Nibs apart is their simplicity. No added sugar, no artificial flavouring — just pure, crunchy cacao goodness.
These nibs are a plant-based pantry staple, offering naturally occurring fibre, a good amount of protein, and essential minerals like iron, calcium, and magnesium. For those following a vegan lifestyle, they’re a great ingredient to support a balanced diet.
Pro tip: For better iron absorption, pair your cacao nibs with a food rich in vitamin C — like oranges, strawberries, or kiwi!
How to Use Cacao Nibs
Cacao nibs are surprisingly versatile! Here are a few ways to work them into your daily routine:
- Stir into your morning oatmeal or porridge
- Blend into smoothies or smoothie bowls
- Sprinkle over granola or yogurt
- Fold into cookie dough, cake batter, or brownies
- Snack on them straight (for the true cacao fans!)
Their texture is crunchy, and the taste? Deep, slightly bitter, and wonderfully bold — just like chocolate before it got dressed up.
