How much would you charge to ship them? Seriously?
My mom just went 100% to deal with leukemia (yay!) and this is the *ONE* SAD thing she's missing. Tootsie rolls are her favorite. I'd love to get her a treat!

firefaery~
That's so fantastic about your Mom going raw!! I don't make these to sell but would be glad to share some of the ones I made. I'm not sure how well they would ship but would be willing to give it a try and send her some. They really are incredibly easy to make though once you have the ingredients. If you email me I'd be glad to tell you where you can get them.
Wishing your mom the very best in her healing~

Just curious as to why the fo-ti? I didn't know anything about it so I looked it up and it would appear to be something I probably don't need or want my daughter to be eating. Would this work without it? Or could I sub in something else?

Where do I find lucuma and mesquite powder?? I was also wondering about the fo-ti, is it just something you like??

To my understanding fo-ti has its own benefits and enhances those of raw cacao...there is no reason, taste-wise that you need to include it. Just sub an extra T. or so of one of the other dry ingredients.:)
Some info I found~
Fo-Ti~
Fo Ti is used to invigorate the kidneys and liver, and serve as a tonic to increase overall vitality. In China, Fo-Ti is known as Ho Shou Wu (or He Shou Wu) and has a reputation for enhancing longevity and energy.
How Fo-Ti Works
Studies have shown that Fo-Ti lowers blood cholesterol levels, and its flavanoid compounds help improve blood flow to the heart by strengthening and dilating the blood vessels. It is believed to have protective effects against heart disease by reducing blood pressure and preventing blood clots. Fo-Ti helps rejuvenate the endocrine glands, which in turn helps to strengthen the body.
Possible Benefits
Promotes longevity as a rejuvenator
Good for heart health - lowers blood pressure and cholesterol
Helps maintain health, energy, strength and vigor
May prevent gray hair and slow premature aging
May help prevent cancer
May be good for mental health and memory
May have beneficial effects on fertility

My health food store has Fo-Ti in capsule form but I opted not to use it since I see no benefit of it to me. The herbalist there said it is mainly used by older men to aid in virility issues.
The same store ordered mesquite flour for me and is ordering the lucuma.

No rg...it would be too expensive for me to do that on such a small scale...but the recipe is very easy to follow if you get the ingredients...try it~:)
