Ceremonial cacao is traditionally prepared as a warm drink and enjoyed slowly as part of a ritual.

Suggested use:

• Gently heat water or plant-based milk (do not boil)

• Add 10-20g of ceremonial cacao chunks

• Whisk or stir until fully melted and smooth

• Optional: add spices or sweeteners if desired

• Enjoy once daily or as part of a ceremony

For best results:

• Consume mindfully and without rushing

• Ideal for morning reflection or evening grounding

• Avoid boiling to preserve natural compounds

Ceremonial cacao is traditionally valued for its intentional, heart-opening, and grounding qualities and is best enjoyed with presence.

Food supplements should not be used as a replacement for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking any medication, please consult a healthcare professional before use.

Criollo Ceremonial Cacao (Theobroma cacao)

• Ancient Mesoamerican civilisations (over 3,000 years ago) – Criollo cacao (Theobroma cacao) revered by the Maya and Aztec cultures

• Sacred ceremonial traditions – Used in ritual drinks, offerings, and spiritual ceremonies

• Traditional Central & South American cultures – Valued for nourishment, grounding, and connection

• Traditional preparation methods – Whole cacao beans stone-ground and brewed into thick ceremonial drinks

Criollo cacao is considered the oldest and most prized cacao variety, traditionally reserved for ceremonial use rather than everyday consumption. Historically, cacao was seen as a sacred plant — a bridge between the physical and spiritual — and consumed intentionally in ritual settings to support grounding, clarity, and heart-centred presence.

We ship via tracked 48hr Royal Mail delivery service for UK orders. All orders before 2pm will be shipped in the same day.

Criollo Ceremonial Cacao is made from minimally processed, whole cacao beans, preserving their natural fats, flavour, and traditional integrity. Unlike conventional cocoa, ceremonial cacao is not alkalised or heavily refined, allowing it to retain its original character.

Commonly associated modern-day benefits of ceremonial cacao include:

• Supporting grounding and presence

• Supporting mood and emotional balance

• Providing natural antioxidant support

• Supporting mindful and ceremonial rituals

• Offering a gentle, plant-based source of energy

• Complementing heart-centred and reflective practices

Criollo cacao is widely used today in ceremonial settings, meditation, journaling, creative work, and evening rituals, valued as much for the experience as for its nutritional profile.

Food supplements should not be used as a replacement for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking any medication, please consult a healthcare professional before use.

Still Have Questions?

What is Ceremonial Cacao?

Ceremonial Cacao (Theobroma cacao) is a tropical plant from Central and South America. It is recognised for its rich flavour, mood-boosting compounds, and its traditional use in spiritual and wellness practices.

Are your products third party lab tested?

Absolutely! We test all our products in third-party labs to make sure they meet the highest standards for quality, purity, and safety. These independent tests confirm the strength of active ingredients and ensure that our products are free from contaminants like heavy metals, pesticides, and harmful microbes.

Is your Cacao ethically sourced?

The cacao is sourced from small, family-run farms across Venezuela, Peru and Ghana where farmers follow traditional, sustainable methods of cultivation. 

How do I take it?

Chop or grate 10-15g of Cacao into warm water or milk, whisk until smooth and blend if required. Sweeten to taste and enjoy. 

Is it safe to take long term?

Yes, Cacao is considered safe for ongoing use. It should be consumed in moderate amounts and has natural compounds like theobromine, antioxidants, and magnesium that may help with mood, energy, and heart health.

Is it safe for pregnant or breastfeeding women?

We recommend consulting with your healthcare provider before consuming, as it contains functional herbs and mushrooms.

Can I take Cacao with coffee or other mushrooms?

Yes! Many mix it with coffee or other functional mushrooms. Pairs well with Morning Magic to create a Mocha-style drink.

How should I store it?

Store in a cool, dry place, tightly sealed. Keep away from heat, light, and moisture for best freshness.
