At some point, we all need a moment of peace and quiet; a moment of loneliness, a moment to relax, to gather your thoughts and enjoy the calmness. Usually, these are the lazy Sunday afternoons; when all the work is done and it is time to enjoy the latest issue of your favorite magazine, watch a movie and chat with some friends. And what could accompany those moments better than a warm cup of cacao milk and a truffle. Really, nothing beats that!
The raw nut cacao milk recipe is inspired by the raw truffles a la France and follows their logic. It is gluten-free, sugar-free, soya-free and lactose-free. Delicious!

It’s much more fun to say cacao ;)
Lol, thanks :D
Thank you! I’m wondering why suddenly everyone seems to be saying “cacao” as opposed to “cocoa”. I know it means the same thing, but cacao is Spanish.
There is a difference but it gets confusing. Generally, cacao refers to raw cacao and cocoa refers to processed cacao. It can be confusing. The author of the recipe should have mentioned this. Also, check this link. https://vegetarian.about.com/od/beverage1/a/Difference-Between-Cocoa-And-Cacao.htm
