Natierra Organic Cacao Nibs Shaker 5oz

Are cocoa nibs and cacao nibs the same thing? Yes, their name is used interchangeably. Single ingredient cocoa nibs are made by crushing cacao beans, or cocoa beans, found within the cacao pods. Cocoa nibs are simply cocoa beans in edible size pieces. What do cocoa nibs taste like? They have a real rich, slightly bitter, complex flavor similar to very dark unsweetened chocolate.How can you use cocoa nibs? These little crunchy pieces of healthy chocolaty goodness are sometimes used as a chocolate chip alternative. They can be eaten straight, added to homemade granola bars, or included in trail mix. They're great in baked goods like muffins and bread. You can add chocolate nibs to yogurt, oatmeal, and energy balls. Sprinkl
