At Wildly Organic, we make our cacao powder from non-GMO, USDA Certified Organic cacao. We source our cacao beans from local farmers in the Dominican Republic, where they naturally ferment them in banana leaves for three to five days. They cultivate the cacao plants using eco-friendly, sustainable methods and have been doing so for generations. Our product represents the finest in sustainably sourced, all-natural, fermented cacao. We use Forastero, Trinitario, and Criollo varieties of cacao for our powder, which is hand-packed by the Wildly Organic team in the U.S. This fermented cacao powder arrives ready-to-use in 8 ounce and 16 ounce (updated Wildly Organic branding) and 5 pound (silver Wilderness Family Natural branded) vapor-barrier, resealable packaging to maintain freshness.
