Date: March 16, 2008 03:23PM I've eaten the nibs in that form with some raisins for added sweetness. It's like chewing on coffee beans, not too hard to do. Re: Cacao nibs, how do you eat them?

Add them to chocolate, either ground or whole for an extra crunch. Rob -- Rob Hull - Funky Raw My blog: [www.rawrob.com] Re: Cacao nibs, how do you eat them?

As a non-raw i used to eat some 99% cacao chocolate... Must be similar, without the sweetness Re: Cacao nibs, how do you eat them?

Date: March 16, 2008 08:12PM I'm sure it's similar to your 99% chocolate. They are bitter, I usually use them with something sweet to make the expected chocolate flavour.

I tried eating them plain and they were a bit too bitter for me. Gary Re: Cacao nibs, how do you eat them?
