Review: オーガニックカカオ - お気に入りの商品
Review: 美味しいし、安心安全ヘルシー！お気に入りです - 未加工、オーガニック、余計な物が何も入っていないカカオパウダーのみの商品を探してたどり着きました。 ニチガの商品がコスパも良さそうだったけど、パッケージ不良のレビューが多いのが気になったので、こちらにしました。 ナウフーズのサプリや健康食品は何回も購入したことがあってメーカーの安心感があるし、ちゃんとしたレビューが多いのが決め手です。 パッケージもしっかりしてます。 パウダーはふわふわ！軽い！ 少量のお湯で練って滑らかにしてから、お湯や牛乳でのばして飲んでいます。 コーヒーに混ぜたり、お菓子やパンを作るときに混ぜ込む時にも使いやすい。 子供にはそのままでは苦いので、メープルシロップやはちみつ入りにしています。 賞味期限は購入時期から約1年後の商品が届きました。

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why it taste sour?**
A: Mine doesn’t taste sour, but it is a bit bitter , raw cocao, as opposed to sweetened and processed cocoa often used in baking so perhaps that’s what the difference is.

**Q: Is this tested for heavy metals?**
A: google heavy metals in the powder

**Q: Is this non-alkalized cocoa?**
A: Alkalized cocoa is washed in potassium to get the ph to a neutral 7, so..... no, this brand's cocoa is not alkalized and would be a ph of around 5.

**Q: Is it made from criollo beans, and have the 3oo nutrients including anadamide and phenylethylamine?**
A: Our certified organic cacao in this product is sourced from Peru, which cultivates mainly Trinitario, Forastero and Criollo cacao varieties, but we do not specify a single cultivar so it can be any or all of those. We don’t ID or quantify those two specific components in our organic cacao powder.
