PlusCacao Team suggests that you invite a lot of fun, music, rhythm and Cacao into your life to discover that taking care of your body, mind and soul doesn't have to be boring and dull! Cacao is no more no less a fermented, sun-dried cacao beans, slowly ground at low temperature to a smooth mass (or less smooth if the beans are not thoroughly peeled). This mass is then poured into a mold where it freezes and then goes to Cacao HQ! When the cocoa fruit is ripe, it is harvested, opened and the pulp and beans are removed. After harvest, the beans ferment for up to a week. During this time, enzymes responsible for the deep and rich taste of Cacao are produced in them (as in red wine, tannins responsible for acidity also appear). This is followed by drying in the sun (or in some cases, depending on the region, over a fire). Thanks to the low processing temperature, Cacao retains its diverse taste (depending on the region it comes from) and the whole range of nutrients needed by our bodies! Then it's just roasting (or not), grain cleaning (or not!), grinding and "forming" (pouring the mass into the appropriate mold so that it solidifies). That's the way it's made!
