Cacao meravigliao

What's special about our cocoa? It has a round and enveloping flavor, it's bitter yet delicious because it has a neutral pH of 7. It's produced with Forastero, Trinitario, and Criollo beans. A portion of these beans are not fermented to preserve polyphenols (antioxidants). It undergoes only a light roasting, is organically grown in the Dominican Republic, and we purchase it with a fair trade contract.

Instructions

It can be used to make Chokkino, ChokkoCocco, ChokkoCoccino and ChokkoLove
It can also be used in all recipes that call for cocoa powder

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Chokkino contains about 11 mg of caffeine
One espresso coffee contains about 80 mg of caffeine

The daily caffeine limits recommended by EFSA are:
adults 400 mg
pregnant women 200 mg
children 3 mg/kg

So if Chokkino were the only source of caffeine in the day, it would be possible to drink it:
adults 36 cups
pregnant women 18 cups
Clearly we advise against drinking all these cups of Chokkino

Live Better cocoa is 100% pure organic cocoa powder grown in the Dominican Republic (the world's leading producer of organic cocoa)
Chokkino espresso contains 35 ml of water and 5 g of cocoa, so one cup contains 25% of cocoa

Live Better products can also be taken during pregnancy, except for Pure Biltong and Kaminwurz, as they are cured.
Pure Jerky is cooked, not raw meat, so there's no problem.

Better Mayo is made with pasteurized egg yolk. The yolk is pasteurized, undergoing a controlled heat treatment at 64°C for 8 minutes and then refrigerated at +2°C. Under proper storage conditions and shelf-life, the product is generally suitable for consumption during pregnancy. Unless otherwise indicated by a medical professional and in accordance with the storage instructions on the label.

The only caution is Chokkino because it contains caffeine
A cup of Chokkino espresso contains only 11 mg of caffeine (an espresso coffee contains 80 mg)
EFSA's recommended daily limit of caffeine for pregnant women is 200 mg
Caffeine is naturally present in cocoa, and therefore also in chocolate. However, chocolate contains less caffeine than cocoa powder.
Cocoa powder contains less cocoa butter and therefore the caffeine is "concentrated"

All Live Better products can be taken while breastfeeding.

Consult your doctor for special needs

Yes, cocoa and chocolate naturally contain caffeine. One cup of Chokkino espresso contains 11 mg of caffeine, while one espresso coffee contains 80 mg.

No. Chokkino is composed only of 100% bitter cocoa and water.

Yes. Chokkino contains only 11 mg of caffeine.
EFSA's recommended daily limits for children are 3 mg/kg

Chokkino espresso 35 ml + 1 scoop of cocoa
Long Chokkino 50 ml + 1 scoop of cocoa
However, you can customize it as you like, putting more water and dosing the cocoa to get the intensity you like

As with wine, there are hundreds of types of cocoa. What makes the difference is: the cultivar, the growing method and the process. I always give the example of Cabernet Sauvignon: you can make table wine or Sassicaia.

Our cocoa is made from Forastero, Criollo and Trinitario beans. Some of the beans are not fermented to preserve polyphenols (the antioxidant molecules that fight free radicals). We selected it through a scientific study with the University of Teramo, where we analyzed the polyphenol content of more than 100 cocoa samples. We wanted to make sure it contained a high content of antioxidants.

Our cocoa has a bright color with reddish hues and an intense flavor that envelops the mouth in a lingering cocoa aroma.

Usually cocoa has a pH 5/5.5, so acidic like coffee. Our cocoa, on the other hand, thanks to a slight alkalinization process, has a pH 7, so neutral. We wanted it that way for two reasons:
- since it’s not acidic, it has a pleasantly bitter taste smooth and enjoyable even without added sugar.
- Is well tolerated even by those with acidity problems such as gastritis and reflux
