Cocoa powder with mushroom extracts and fibre

Maca, Ceylon cinnamon, vanilla and inulin complete the composition of the functional and tasty cocoa powder. Delicious as a cocoa drink and excellent as an accompaniment to (sweet) dishes.

High quality, minimally processed Criollo cocoa

Criollo cocoa is known for its unique, rich flavour, which is considered the highest standard of quality.

Only 5% of the world's cocoa production comes from Criollo cocoa trees. Its production and processing is entirely focused on preserving its exceptional taste.

This unique product is therefore extremely popular among cocoa lovers.

Bean-to-bar production

NoordCode uses cocoa powder produced according to the bean-to-bar concept. Bean-to-bar means that the chocolate manufacturer controls all processing steps from the cocoa bean to the chocolate bar.

The producer has a direct relationship with the cocoa growers and pays a fair price for the cocoa. This allows farmers to focus on the sustainable production of premium cocoa.

Cocoa powder in Power Cacao chocolate comes from Peru. NoordCode has chosen to preserve polyphenols as much as possible and minimise the risk of mould during processing.

Maximum preservation of polyphenols due to minimal processing

Cocoa beans are naturally rich in polyphenols and other beneficial substances. The usual processing of cocoa beans into cocoa powder reduces the amount of polyphenols. In particular, when cocoa is roasted and alkalinised, many polyphenols are lost.

NoordCode has opted for maximum preservation of polyphenols by not roasting or alkalizing the cocoa. As a result, the cocoa retains its natural flavour profile, which differs significantly from "regular" cocoa powder.

Raw cacao has a lighter colour and a bitterer taste that comes from polyphenols. Cocoa also has a sour taste because it is not alkalized. All this together gives the cocoa powder more depth and a unique flavour.

Concentrated mushroom extracts from mushroom KÄÄÄPÄ

KÄÄPÄ Mushrooms is a Finnish manufacturer of effective mushroom extracts. They use the fruits of organically grown or wild-collected mushrooms, which contain most of the useful substances.

Ultrasonic-assisted extraction (UAE) gently breaks down the fungal cells to extract the most useful substances from the fungi. The extract of water and alcohol is then pulverized into a powder containing the useful substances from the mushrooms.

KÄÄPÄ mushroom extract powders are the perfect complement to NoordCode Power Cocoa in terms of function and taste.

225 mg of lion's mane extract

Lion's Mane (Hericium erinaceus) gets its name from its shaggy spines resembling a lion's mane. Lion's mane is found in Europe, North America and Asia and is traditionally used in China.

KÄÄPÄ Mushrooms grows the lion's mane itself organically on birch trunks.

Each dose of Power Cacao contains 225 mg of Lion's Mane extract.

135 mg of chaga extract

KÄÄPÄ Mushrooms produces its extract from wild chaga from Lapland in northern Finland. Thanks to the cold winters and unpolluted nature, you will find the best quality and most effective chaga in Lapland.

Each dose of Power Cacao contains 135 mg of chaga extract.

Organic Peruvian gelatinised maca

The organic maca we used to make Power Cacao is also high quality. Traditionally cultivated maca from the Peruvian Andes is known as the best maca root on the market. It is gelatinised to make it easier to digest. Because it is gelatinised, it has a lower starch content.

Enriched with inulin, cinnamon and vanilla

The rich taste of Criollo cocoa is combined with the sweetness of organic poppy seeds and inulin. Inulin is a prebiotic fibre that has a naturally sweet taste but does not affect blood sugar levels. Power Cacao uses hydrolysed inulin to reduce the risk of flatulence.

Ceylon cinnamon, vanilla extract and a hint of sea salt offer another layer of deeper flavours. The balanced sweetness is characterised by its low sugar content (only 1.2 g per serving), making it suitable for all diets.

Environmentally friendly and laboratory tested

Power Cacao is completely organic and laboratory tested free of mycotoxins, heavy metals and other contaminants. All ingredients are plant-based and suitable for vegans.

Power Cacao contains no added sugar and is therefore suitable for paleo, ketogenic and low carbohydrate diets. Power Cacao is gluten free.
