Cacao was once considered by ancient Mayan and Aztec civilisations as a food of the gods, an association that led to the cacao tree's scientific name Theobroma cacao, from the Greek words 'theo' (god) and 'broma' (food). In modern day it is undeniably one of the nature's healthiest ingredients; this Amazonian superfood is full of potent antioxidants (40 times more than blueberries), vitimins and minerals.
