Last week at Integrative Nutrition, Chef Karolina led a workshop in raw chocolate truffle making. The workshop was such a fun and successful event, that we wanted to share the recipe with everyone!
The health benefits of raw cacao have chocolate lovers jumping for joy. According to David Wolfe, "Every study on chocolate is pointing to the same conclusion: there is something in chocolate that is really good for us. That something is the raw cacao bean, the nut that all chocolate is made from. The cacao bean has always been and will always be nature's #1 weight loss and high-energy food. Cacao beans are probably the best kept secret in the entire history of food."
