From the manufacturer
ARE YOU CRAVING FOR A PURE TASTE OF DECADENT DARK CHOCOLATE?
Making homemade dark chocolate is easy, but making dark chocolate with a pronounced taste of bitter and mildly sweet is not. True chocolatiers understand the importance of the perfect flavor and texture. While there are many cacao pastes on the market, it is difficult to find one that combines nutrition and gourmet-quality cacao. Some contain emulsifiers and other additives that you do not want in your cacao liquor. Others have been processed for so long that they end up providing very few flavanols.
The Cacao Paste by Star Andino Heritage is made from 100% pure cacao beans that are perfect for making dark chocolate.
NATURALLY ENHANCES MOOD
We do not use heat in making our cacao paste to ensure it retains its natural properties. These include nutrients and active compounds, like anandamide and magnesium, that help improve your mood.
Anandamide is a natural mood regulator, responsible for feelings of euphoria. Magnesium is a relaxer that works well on the muscle and nerves. The presence of these nutrients in our cacao paste contribute to feelings of contentment, so you feel less stressed.
AIDS IN WEIGHT CONTROL
Many lump cacao in the same unhealthy category as chocolate. But there’s a world of difference! Due to the high presence of flavonols, fiber, and chromium in it, our cacao paste may even help maintain healthy weight levels.
Flavonols are heart-healthy plant chemicals that may help a person maintain weight better. Fiber is a plant-based nutrient that gives feelings of fullness. Chromium is a mineral that may help curb your appetite, cut your body fat, and burn calories.
HELPS MAINTAIN HEALTHY BLOOD SUGAR LEVELS
We all know that overconsumption of chocolate is not healthy for our blood sugar, but surprisingly, our cacao paste may help maintain normal blood sugar levels when taken in moderate amounts. Because it contains no added sugar and is mostly made up of fiber, it may help keep blood sugar levels stable. Additionally, the flavonols present in our cacao paste may help slow down carb digestion.

CREATES DIFFERENT RECIPESThe chocolate industry uses our 16-ounce pack of pure cacao paste for the production of cocoa derivatives, while the confectionery industry uses it to make chocolate-flavored products. Home cooks and bakers use it for making different sweet treats. Here are some ideas for recipes: 1. Add our cacao paste to your smoothies, baked goods, or fudges.

EASY PREPARATIONTo melt our cacao pastes, first fill a small saucepan with water, then let it boil. When the saucepan starts to boil, turn off the fire. Dissolve the chopped cacao pastes in the boiling water. Wait for the cacao to melt, then stir it for 3 to 5 minutes until it is completely melted. For an added touch of flavor, add cinnamon and cloves to the saucepan while you are boiling the water. You can also add milk and sugar to the cacao paste while stirring it. |
