cacao & chocolate
In our small-batch cacao roastery, we have forged for you the perfect partners to snuggle up with… simply charming cacao teas, cacao nibs, 100% cacao blocks, dark hot choc spoons and chocolate bark - all made from 100% Organic Single Bean Cacao. Our Cacao Tea contains both the roasted beans and the cocoa husk - we waste nothing in our workshop.
Our organic cacao beans from Dominican Republic. We use only ethically sourced raw materials as the welfare of the cocoa farmers is a key ingredient of good chocolate.
Our mission is to create yummy flavours that deliver healthy nutrition in every sip and bite. Our products are Gluten Free and Vegan Nibbed is a women-led, owned and operated cocoa brand.
CACAO NIBS WITH A TWIST
what are cacao nibbles?
Candied in maple syrup, and mixed with organic fruit, seeds and spices, they will offer you the nutrient boost of cacao nibs, balanced with a sweet maple finish. Crunchy to begin with and bursting with flavour, our nibbles offer an explosion of flavours.
Cacao nibs are rich in minerals like magnesium and manganese among other highly valued nutrients. Some of you will attempt to add our cacao nibs to your home baked goods. Please do!
These culinary concoctions of edible Zen can become your secret weapon in the battle to keep your immune system in check. Our nibbles are the palate-pleasing clusters to be shared with pals or turned into your favourite brekkie topping. You choose.
A CHOCOFUSION OF ACTIVATED BEAUTY
what is chocolate bark?
Rustic shards of our handmade, 75%, 3-ingredient chocolate that has been sprinkled with activated organic nuts, spices and/ or fruit.
Chocolate bark is the best way to showcase the flavours of organic cocoa bean. It is a chocolate fusion that pairs chocolate from roasted organic cacao nibs with maple - while the crunch from the activated nuts delivers a depth of bittersweet undertones. Rustic yet striking, orange-y yet nutty this is Hygge in a bite.
Healthy decadence at its finest!
BACK TO THE FUNDAMENTALS
cacao as a symbol
Nibbed is taking Cacao back to its roots. We are not interested in the over-processed chocolate gimmicks of the mainstream. We offer Chocolate Teas in tantalising flavours, and cacao nib goodies that will impress your taste buds. They offer moments of quiet mindfulness or healthy tokens of friendship to share with your friends. Just the drinkable or chewable pick-me-up you were looking for.
CHOCOLATE OR COCOA TEA
what is cacao tea?
Our chocolate tea is not just any cacao husk tea. It is a bespoke combination of 100% organic cacao mass, cacao husks and organic fruits and spices. Our rich and smooth teas are a winner for that chocolate hit without the heaviness.
It is full of antioxidants, known to reduce inflammation and of course Theobromine, the ultimate mood lifter.
The husks are a precious source of nutrients. Cacao husks contain iron, vitamin E and copper, the antiviral mineral.
We have been blending and experimenting to find the perfect chocolatey brews for you. Our Cacao husks are carefully combined with organic spices and other nutritious, tasty ingredients to create a relaxing yet revitalising concoction.
Currently, we have two flavours,
orange & cardamom and cacao & coconut.
NIBBED
low waste
We are committed to low waste production and packaging throughout our operation. There is basically no food waste, as we even use the skins of the oranges and use the whole bean in our products.
Our packaging is recyclable or compostable, and we are always researching ways to reduce and lower this.
Even the cacao teas don’t need to go to waste. After you’ve enjoyed your hot drink, sprinkle them on your plants or into your compost pile or bin.

health benefits
Cacao has many health benefits. The beans contain very high levels of flavonoids called procyanidins or you may know them as antioxidants. In fact cacao is very high up on the ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity) scale and gives many protective effects to the body.
Theobromine is particularly high in Cacao and is a stimulant that provides sustained energy to the body. The husks are also a rich source of dietary fibre and in fact are used as a natural fortification agent. Cacao husks have significant mineral contents been good sources of potassium, magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, copper and zinc.
