Giddy YoYo Cacao Paste (Ecuador) Certified Organic

Description

GY cacao paste is made from the highly prized Ecuadorian Arriba Nacional bean (aka cacao Arriba, or cacao Nacional). Arriba is a fine flavoured bean characterized by fruity and floral notes, and unique to Ecuador. The paste is certified organic, Rainforest Alliance certified, common allergen-free, non GMO, naturally vegan and delicious!

The beans are hand-selected, fermented and dried to perfection. The skins are removed from the dried bean (aka winnowed) then ground into a liquid, tempered, cooled into a solid form and kibbled for ease of use. Their cacao is lab tested, clean and pure, never “Dutched” nor treated with toxic chemicals. GY cacao paste is low temperature processed from start to finish to maximize quality and taste while maintaining nutritional integrity.

Giddy YoYo's farmers harvest fully mature ripened pods from trees grown in mineral-rich volcanic soil. The plantation from which they source is known for their high quality low cadmium fine flavour cacao. Their supplier has developed and implemented the Native Cacao Farming Initiative, which is an ongoing free education and training program for the cacao harvesters and processors. It is important to them that the Ecuadorians responsible for supplying the unique cacao are well taken care of; they believe in people over profits. They lab test each lot of raw materials to ensure their high standards are met or exceeded.
