Recipes
Mmmmmm… Here are some of our favourite coffee recipes that we would like to share with you. We recommend that you use Organic, Fair Trade ingredients wherever possible. The finished product tastes so much better and the farmers who produce Organic, Fair Trade ingredients receive additional income for their crops and work at protecting the environment.

Other Organic Ingredients…
Cocoa
Cocoa has traditionally been one of the most pesticide-intensive crops in the world. In particular, the use of Lindane (an organochlorine pesticide) in cocoa production is a health hazard for farmers, wildlife and consumers. The Organic cocoa used in Cocoa Camino products is grown without chemical fertilizers or pesticides. Organic and shade grown agricultural techniques encourage careful stewardship of the environment to improve cocoa quality and yields.
This helps to ensure environmental sustainability and healthy communities for the future.
Sugar
Organic sugar is minimally processed and harvested by hand. As crop-burning (slash and burn) techniques are not used, there are no traces of sulfur found on the cane or the land. There are no added chemical additives and no bleaching (via sulfur-dioxide) of the sugar. By eliminating polluting chemicals from entering the soil, groundwater, plants and atmosphere, these organic processes help to protect the environment.
