Featuring Maqui Berry
Maqui Berry is considered by many to be the number one Super Food today. It is higher in antioxidants than any other botanical known to man.
Antioxidants reduce the free radicals that break down tissue in the body and cause all kinds of ailments. Introducing Super Foods like the Maqui Berry into our diets aids the antioxidant enzymes our bodies produce naturally to fight off free radicals. Aging, stress, environment, lifestyle and diet can elevate the level of free radicals in our bodies. When your body begins to breakdown due to the aging process, stress, diet deficiency or other factors, eating foods high in antioxidants like the Maqui Berry will help reduce the additional free radicals your body produces and you will enjoy better health and vitality.
Additional Maqui Cacao Bar Ingredients:
Rose Hips Powder
Rose hips contain carotenoid pigments, plant sterols, tocotrienols and a very high level of anthocyanins, catechins and other polyphenolics. Some of these phytochemicals are known to protect against cancer and cardiovascular disease (CVD). They also contain up to 5 % by weight of pectin, a soluble fiber that protects against CVD. In clinical trials, rose hips were seen to reduce C-reactive protein levels, associated with a lower risk of CVD. Rose hips also have anti-inflammatory properties that have recently been shown to be helpful in the treatment of osteoarthritis.
Palma Rosa Oil
Palma Rosa Oil (Cymbopogon Martini) reduces bacterial growth in the urinary tracts and gives effective protection against infection in the body (septic) and it is also helpful to reduce the affects of indigestion, stress and fatigue. Palma Rosa oil is also used to help relieve back pain and stiff joints and is a treatment for skin diseases. It is also a key ingredient in some hair growth products used to cure baldness.
Red Raspberry Powder
Red Raspberries rank near the top of all fruits for antioxidant strength, particularly due to their rich content of ellagic acid (from ellagotannins), quercetin, gallic acid, anthocyanins, cyanidins, pelargonidins, catechins, kaempferol and salicylic acid. One of the most promising benefits of red raspberries is that they are significant source of ellagic acid. This substance belongs to the family of phytonutrients called tannins, and is viewed as being responsible for a good portion of the antioxidant activity of this (and other) berries. Ellagic acid has become a known as a potent anti-carcinogenic/anti-mutagenic compound.
Organic Raw Cacao
Cacao is one of the leading antioxidant rich substances on the planet known today. It provides an abundant source of iron and magnesium, which support healthy heart function. There are also other chemicals in chocolate which give its reputation as a food associated with love. These include phenylethlamine, tryptophan, and anandamide, “feel good” chemicals that naturally occur in the brain and aid in one’s sense of well-being.
When the cacao beans are roasted, all the minerals and antioxidant flavonoids are damaged and unable to be absorbed by the body at their full potential. . As our name implies, we use only raw chocolate in its purest form – unheated, unprocessed and unadulterated.
Many people believe that chocolate is high in caffeine. On the contrary, Cacao only contains a fraction ( 0.2% ) of caffeine and is mainly composed of theobromine which has a similar stimulant effect as caffeine without the harmful side effects.
Himalayan Pink Salt
This unique form of salt is harvested as a pink crystal in the Himalayas from beneath the earth’s surface. It originated from primal seas millions of years ago and is cultivated in its pure crystalline form.
Organic Raw Vanilla Bean
These aromatic Madagascar-Bourbon vanilla beans are ground whole and sun-dried to accentuate the flavor of the foods with which they are mixed.
Organic Raw Agave Nectar
This low glycemic sweetener is both healthy and delightfully tasty. Due to its low glycemic index, it aids in the availability of good intestinal flora and has been recommended for diabetics. Traditionally cultivated by generations of native people, agave has recently gained popularity as a sweetener when people started looking for sugar alternatives.
Organic Raw Coconut Oil
This multifaceted superfood has been used to treat many ailments and has gained so much credibility that books extolling its properties have been written on its behalf. Virgin coconut oil is a rich source of medium chain fatty acids, similar to those in mother’s milk, which aid in increasing metabolism and digestive abilities. It has also been used for antibacterial, antiviral, and antimicrobial purposes.
Brown Rice Protein Powder
Brown rice is a good source of fiber, complex carbohydrates, B vitamins, E vitamins and is comprised of a complete high-quality amino acid chain for a healthy diet. Protein from brown rice is also gluten free and non-allergenic so it won’t upset the digestive system of those who are sensitive to food allergies. Just one scoop (28 grams) of Brown rice Powder powder in our Rose Bar contains 12 grams of very high-quality protein, zero grams of fat, no sodium, and no sugar. Ideal for quick muscle recovery, muscle regeneration, and the development of lean body tissue.
Red Beet Crystals
Red Beets are known for their high levels of anti-carcinogens. Red beets also have a very high carotenoid content and are loaded with antioxidants, are high in carbohydrates, low in fat, and they are an excellent source of folic acid. Red Beets get their color from a pigment called Betacyanin. This pigment is absorbed into your blood corpuscles and can increase the level of oxygen available in your bloodstream by up to 400%.

They are made entirely from raw, high frequency foods and retain their raw state throughout the entire process from raw ingredients to finished product.

I had a raw chocolate truffle at a local restaurant. It included rose essential oil. I was intrigued enough to try it. It was incredible. I was pleasantly surprised to see a rose flavored chocolate in your product. It is delicious. I love the raspberry taste as well. It really is an interesting (in a good way) flavor combination. Very rich and layered. 🙂
Justin Darrow –
Thanks Angela, we are happy that you enjoyed the complexity of the Rose bar 🙂

I found this at a health food store and the people working there loved this and suggested I give it a try as I’m sensitive to nearly everything…not only did I like it, but it didn’t trigger any food intolerances. The flavor is amazing (I’m not a regular chocolate fan), especially if you like subtle taste. I would recommend this for anyone who likes rosewater as it is similar to subtlety. Unfortunately they stopped selling it shortly after I started purchasing it, but now that I found your website I will order directly 🙂 A 5 STARS product.
Justin Darrow –
Thank you Taniah, we are glad you love the Rose bar! 🙂

RIghteously Raw’s Truffle Bars are by far the best raw chocolate I’ve ever tasted (and I’ve tried a lot!) – the Maca one was calming and elevating at the same time with a perfect chewy texture. Seemed almost like a chocolate fig newton! Now this Rose Bar, similar texture but surprisingly tangy with delicate notes of rose. Absolutely delicious – and I felt more positive somehow than I did before. When I read the back of the wrapping for the flavor I feel I know why – so much love went into its development! I hope they keep making this line of truffle-goodness and can’t wait to try them all!

In search of a low-carb treat, I tried the Rose bar. What a wonderful flavor! But I challenge you to try to reduce the carbs in a special carb bar; keep the sugars to an all-time low. Hi Protein would be an added benefit also. I could eat the entire bar, but then that defeats the goal.

I received a bar though my Ashi Box Subscription and had to try it immediately. It was quiet different than and chocolate bar I have tried and the taste is almost indescribable A heavenly blend chocolate and truffle with the aroma of a freshly bloomed rose in spring. I was amazed at the nutrtion also, since I am a working on fitness competing and need to fit foods into macro-diet. Very simple, tasty and elegant.

This is by far the most superior chocolate I have ever eaten. I love anything raw. I am in love with the Rose bar. It is a healthy, delicious extremely beneficial decadent find. It’s like sneaking off into the garden while enjoying a quiet, sweet moment of bliss and solitude. I will be looking forward to trying them all. Possibly carrying them in my future business venue. As well ever so pleased to have found the web site since as soon as I discovered these lovelies Whole Foods quit carrying them!
Brittany England –
Thank you so much Willoh, glad you love our bars!

Soo good!! Very good flavor and has a bit of delightful chewiness in the filling that I absolutely love! Sweet and satisfying and I feel awesome about what I’m putting in my body while simultaneously eating a candy bar. I’m excited to try the other flavors. I love that they have such unique flavors and incredibly healthy ingredients that you might never have gotten before. Considering studies show that variety (of plant foods of course) is so beneficial, it’s cool to get new things added to the diet through these bars!
Oh, and I can’t thank this company enough for being palm oil free!! 🙂

I experienced something so intense after having a piece of this amazing, high vibrational Rose bar…divine love. Literally began tearing up not knowing what was happening to me until I read the insert and saw the beautiful picture of Jaymie. I’m an energy healer & my husband is a grocery manager at a national health food store in Texas. Audrey, your product is a healer and the love poured into making this a creation for Jaymie has even more to do with its extraordinary healing properties… I’m sure you’re aware of this. Gave my husband a taste of this incredible Rose bar last night and told him to recommend this to his employees & customers. Thank you for sharing your story & creation with us. Blessings on your journey ahead. ~ Sharon
