{"product_id":"ceremonial-grade-cacao-butter","title":"Ceremonial Cacao Butter — Pure Peruvian Cacao Fat for Silky Ritual Drinks","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"tod-product\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is a moment, right before the first sip, when a cup of cacao stops being a drink and becomes a ritual. Cacao butter is what makes that moment feel like silk. Pressed from the oil of premium cacao, these wafers melt into your cup and give it the weight, gloss and mouthfeel that turn a quick morning brew into something you actually sit down for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is 100% pure, ceremonial-grade cacao butter, made in small batches with a temperature-controlled process that protects the fatty acids, proteins, vitamins and enzymes naturally present in the bean. The cacao itself is organically grown by farmers of the Yanesha communities of Peru, in the Pasco region of the Central Amazon. It tastes the way it sounds: unsweetened white chocolate, with quiet cacao notes underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#2c3a37;\"\u003eAt a Glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% pure, ceremonial-grade cacao butter — nothing added\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrganic cacao sourced from the Yanesha communities of Pasco, Peru\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlavor profile: unsweetened white chocolate with cacao notes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall-batch, temperature-controlled production\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWafer format — easy to measure, easy to melt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse it to enrich cacao paste, ceremonial drinks or teas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#2c3a37;\"\u003eHow to Use It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCacao butter is a texture ingredient.
