Review: Testing this Smile :) - Ok...I just received this Cacao Powder in the mail. It was a day early :) Like that! I have to say that people were saying it tastes so rich and full of flavor. One even said that she wet her finger and stuck it in the bag and it tasted good. No bitterness. Like a chocolate bar. Sorry, but I didn't get the same result. I have made me and the Man a cup with just water. It doesn't taste good. I wasn't looking for taste though. I was looking for good results with cholesterol buildup. So, I will be back on that one. I do know that it isn't bitter like the regular cocoa that I have been drinking as a child. If this was used as a hot chocolate, chocolate shake or smoothie, Honey, it would be Delish. I will do that from time to time, but right now, I'm interested in our heart, brain and artery health and this can provide what we need. I will get back to you after a couple of weeks. This should help with our blood pressure. The cost was fine for the richness. It blends really well in warm or cold water. Can't wait to see our energy levels go up. It's supposed to help with your metabolism. Pure ingredients makes me feel at ease with this product. I think it is a good quality too. Thanks for this product.
Review: Great Cocoa Powder for Baking - I use this cocoa powder for baking, like cookies and whole wheat snacks, and it works really well. The flavor is rich and blends nicely into the dough. A little goes a long way. I’m very happy with the quality and would buy it again.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where is it from and has this been tested fir cadmium? Thanks**
A: European Union will impose a limit for cadmium in cocoa powders of 0.6 µg per gram of cocoa powder, and 0.8 µg per gram for chocolate with >= 50% total dry cocoa solids. In Canada, a daily serving of a natural health product must contain no more than 6 µg of cadmium for an individual weighing 150 pounds (68 kg) and 3 µg for a 75 lb (34 kg) individual.

**Q: Is this raw organic cacao powder? It doesn't say raw on the bag online**
A: From the description on the bag:  "... sourced from prized Peruvian Criollo beans, exceptionally rare and wholesome beans  ... cultivated in rich volcanic soils.  ... After the shells are delicately peeled, out cacao beans are pressed into a velvety paste and slowly ground into a fine delicate powder, retaining  ... antioxidants ...Hope That Helps,DB

**Q: So this product has the cal prop warning that it does contain chemicals?**
A: The current packaging for this product is new.  I mention this because the prior packaging had a different look and no California Prop warning.  I am guessing the packaging (bag) may be harmful and not the cocoa powder.  I have been using this product for years and it is certified organic.  Just a note, it has come out recently that fast food packaging (wrappers) have chemicals that may be toxic.  You can drive yourself crazy trying to figure out what is safe and what is not.

**Q: How much nutrition is lost putting powder in coffee or hot water? Boiled vs just hot? Is there any benefit to drinking the solids that settle?**
A: Hello,Unfortunately, cacao is quite sensitive to heat. While fiber and protein remain intact, nutrients and powerful compounds may be lost when heated to boiling point. We recommend consuming our cacao powder in its natural form, or added to warm foods and liquids. I hope that this information has been helpful, and if you have any additional questions or concerns please do not hesitate to message me at vivian@vivalabs.comSincerely,VivianViva Labs Customer Care

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Makes my morning coffee amazing
*by C***C on January 4, 2026*

I use this cacao powder in my morning coffee and it tastes great. The flavor is rich and chocolatey without being bitter or overly sweet, and it blends in smoothly. I also like that it’s unsweetened and clean — vegan, non-GMO, gluten-free — so it fits easily into my routine. A little goes a long way, and the 1 lb bag will last a while. Great quality cacao if you want a deep chocolate flavor for drinks or baking.
