5.0 out of 5 stars The Truth About Vitamin C In Raw Cacao, October 2, 2009
This review is from: Navitas Naturals Cacao Powder, 16-Ounce Pouches (Pack of 2) (Grocery)
Hello Raw Cacao Lovers!

Here is the real truth about vitamin C (ascorbic acid) content in Raw Cacao:

Despite the trafficked reports circulating the internet, the honest truth remains: even when processed at low temperatures (i.e. "raw"), there is no vitamin C (ascorbic acid) present in cacao.

Recently, highly trafficked websites such as[...] have highlighted the misinformation of cacao's supposed vitamin C content. Included in these reports are claims that raw cacao is "extraordinarily high in vitamin C."

Back in 2004, our Navitas Naturals lab tests directly looked for vitamin C content in raw cacao, but came up negative. Despite these results, the current media blitz brought us back again for another round of lab testing of our best-selling raw cacao products (beans, nibs and powder) for vitamin C. This time, we used two different laboratories instead of one, and utilized three different analytical methods: High Performance Liquid... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Expensive, but absolutely worth the money..., March 3, 2009
By 
This review is from: Navitas Naturals Cacao Powder, 16-Ounce Pouches (Pack of 2) (Grocery)
I love this chocolate powder. My family and I recently became aware that MSG and its hidden forms (autolyzed yeast, hydrolyzed protein, yeast extract, calcium caseinate, natural flavors, etc.) are the source of our health problems. This discovery led to searching for less processed (especially by high heat) food products. This is a great find! Do beware, if you try this stuff you will not be able to go back to Hershey's....it is that good. Hot chocolate, chocolate ice cream, chocolate nut butters are all fabulous made with chocolate powder rather than highly processed cocoa powder.

Okay, so I'm a vegan, and I'm a baker and now that its cold, I become obsessed with this stuff. It has 5g of protein in a serving, is unprocessed so you actually get the cacao benefit instead of Hershey crap, and honestly, its the best cocoa I've ever used. Seriously. The quality is unsurpassed and I cannot even begin to tell you how much you'll use it once you try it. I make my hot chocolate with it! Once you go natural cacao, you just don't go back.
