What You Should Know

You'd find these organic cacao wafers in the natural foods or baking aisle, tucked among other specialty chocolates and baking ingredients for weekend baking projects or quick snack fixes. They give a quietly indulgent, wholesome vibe—like a pantry-staple treat for someone who prefers simple, ingredient-forward snacks. With just cacao liquor, cacao butter and coconut palm sugar the wafers melt smoothly and taste bean-forward; the ingredient list and lack of emulsifiers or industrial additives point to moderate processing (not ultra-processed).

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Made from a few recognizable ingredients (cacao liquor, cacao butter, coconut palm sugar) with no artificial additives, the product is processed for taste and convenience but not reformulated into an industrial formulation typical of ultra-processed foods. The presence of extracted cacao components and added sugar moves it beyond minimally processed (NOVA 1) into processed foods (NOVA 3).
