Cacao nibs are roasted cacao beans that have been separated from their husks and crushed into small, crunchy pieces. They are essentially chocolate in its most basic form, before any sugar, milk, or cocoa butter is added, which is why they taste intensely bittersweet rather than sweet. Gerbs nibs are roasted, which mellows the raw bean’s sharpness and deepens its chocolate flavor. With no sugar and nothing added, they are a naturally vegan way to add real cacao flavor and a firm, satisfying crunch to both sweet and savory dishes.

Gerbs Roasted Cacao Nibs bring chocolate flavor with none of the added sugar.

Roasted cacao nibs taste like unsweetened chocolate: deep, bold, and intensely bittersweet, with the roasted, slightly nutty notes that roasting brings out. There is no sweetness at all, so the pure cacao flavor comes through. The texture is firm and crunchy, similar to a coarse chocolate version of a chopped nut, giving a satisfying snap that holds up in baking and on top of soft foods like yogurt and oatmeal.
