If you have to know seriously about this label I recommend contacting the company directly about the 6 g of sugar http://www.purenaturalmiracles.com/terms-and-conditions/ - log in and leave a reply on this page.

The label may be hard to read but on my screen it says LESS than 1 (ONE) gram per serving. The PROTEIN is 6 grams which is actually a great side benefit. Also, the serving size is quite large. I doubt you'll use an entire serving size if you are using it as a supplement on a day to day basis (at least at one time; maybe throughout the day though).

There is another brand of raw organic cacao that has 2 g of sugar from nature, not added so this is not unique. Look at the per serving size and the contents break down at http://www.bodybutterstore.com/servlet/the-Chocolate-and-Cacao-Powder/Categories and you will see.

The 6 gm of sugar in the cacao powder is natural sugar, it comes from the bean itself.There is no added sugar. This is unsweetened cocoa powder.

The package describes it as certified organic, non GMO, raw, vegan, made from premium Criollo cacao beans from Ecuador with minimal low-temperature processing and with no sugars or fillers. There would have to be some sort of processing involved in making cacao beans into cacao powder. Alkalinizing--I don't know, but it doesn't seem so. What I do know is that this is really good stuff!

None that I can see on the label. It has less than 1 gram of sugar per serving.

I looked up the definition of the word "Certo" on ask.com and it says it is a fruit pectin developed by Kraft Canada used for thickening. Is it possible that this "Baker's Chocolate" has less percentage cacao in it with fruit pectin filling? I hope not because I would also like to purchase this less expensive "economy-sized" offer from Amazon... but not if it is a diluted product. Anyone with knowledge concerning this... please reply!

A lot of confusion here among people who do not read labels or do not understand them. It is rice PROTEIN, not rice. No rice carbohydrate. Thus, not only no "added" sugar, no sugar at all, unless you consider ONE GRAM or less to be "glycemic".

Hey there! Well, from my research, it is totally raw; that means it is natural, not heated above 118 degrees Fahrenheit, and not processed. You are correct, though, that alkali processed (also called Dutch processed) cacao/cocoa does destroy most of the incredible health benefits of this superfood!

Great observation...we have access to an unsweetened 5# bulk pack. I will be pulling a sample to verify that it is truly a no-added sugar item before listing. If it meets these standards I will direct you to the amazon code. Thank you for your suggestion. (give me till Friday this week to verify) Coleman Supply

I use this product and am very happy with it. The best I have tried. I looked at their website and have see no reason to be wary of the product. I have tried other brands and taste and texture of the cacao was poor. Hope this helps.

This is pure cocoa powder, rich and dark and very delicious, it's my favorite. I have used up my supply so I can't tell Chantal the ingredients list, but I'm almost sure it only contains the cacao beans. Hope this is helpful.

Thanks for bringing the sugar question up, however, I don't know why. I did purchase Setton Farms organic Royal Quinoa from another web site, and it contains 1gr. of sugar. I was not aware that the product contained any sugar. Who knew??? I do like TruRoots quinoa, and will probably continue buying it despite the sugar. I don't believe in my year of eating TruRoots quinoa that it has had any negative affects. I do not use any added sugar in my diet, and do not eat processed food or meat.

I checked my jar of Artisana Raw Almond Butter and there is no added sugar. If you look at the label it will say there is 1.6 gm of sugar. So, I looked at a bag of organic almonds I have and it lists 1 gm of sugar. So. I'm assuming that almonds naturally contain a small amt of sugar, but nothing added. Hope this helps.

I'm looking at a bottle right now. No sugar. The ingredients are: water, organic soybeans, salt, organic alcohol (to preserve freshness).

The item is not no-carb, and the label doesn't say zero sugar- it says low carb. It clearly says "7g net carbs" on the front, meaning that there are some carbs in a serving.

the sugar is shipped from TX It is a "product of INdonesia" I am sorry to say, although I believe it to be one of the healthiest natural sugar options, the process of making coconut sugar destroys the trees! making them unable to produce our precious coconuts for coconut, coconut milk, coconut oil, etc :( I found this out only weeks ago and will no longer support this process... have to find another organic sugar option that is not agave.

It doesn't state on the package the percentage of cacao. And I would not be able to guess it. The ingredients list that states: Dark chocolate ( chocolate liquor, sugar, cocoa butter, chocolate liquor, cocoa, milk fat, soy lecithin)If we followed the assumption that the order of the ingredient list is from greater content to less...then I would assume this is not a high percentage of cacao since the sugar is listed second on the list.

It is raw Cacao powder, which is not heated as much as cocoa powder in processing so the antioxidants are not destroyed. It is also much less bitter. We make our own chocolates with this and they require very little sweetener. It costs more that Cocoa, but it is healthier and very delicious!
