Oaxcabars are made from whole cacao beans while most American chocolate brands consist of either cocoa butterfat or an imitation alakai and vegetable oil mix. Using sugar instead of corn syrup (which may contain mercury) makes our bars truly unique in the market today. The bean pods are harvested from surrounding rain forest plantations in the surrounding Oaxacan and Chiapas locales. The harvested beans are dried, roasted, and then ground with sugar and hints of other ingredients like cinnamon, coffee, and almond. Oaxacabars are a super food containing all the benefits of unprocessed cacao which include anandamide (bliss chemical), arginine (nature's Viagra), theobromine (mood stimulant), dopamine (mood-enhancing neurotransmitter), serotonin (anti-stress neurotransmitter), & tryptophan (anti-depressant amino acid). Oaxabars are available in these quantities. They can be enjoyed by themselves or grated into a powder for a frothy hot cocoa beverage. Two bars are ideal for one mug.
