100% Pure, high-quality, organic, high-vibration, ceremony-grade cocoa, of the best possible quality. Directly from the ancient Mayan lands and enriched with MUCUNA PRURIENS, rose and vanilla.


Cacao is considered a sacred plant for the ancient Mayan lands. The original Mayan people have used cacao for thousands of years as a medicinal plant to promote physical, mental and spiritual well-being. Today, its incredible health and spiritual benefits are appreciated around the world.


Mucuna Pruriens, also called the "Velvet Bean," is a tonic herb known for its mood-elevating abilities, as well as boosting creativity and libido.
The high quality ceremonial grade cacao comes directly from the original Mayan tribes in southern Belize. In the ancient Mayan lands, cacao is considered a sacred plant that they have used for thousands of years as a medicinal plant for the physical, mental and spiritual body.

Herbal Cacao introduces ceremonial cacao that springs from the heart of Belize and Guatemala. Their products come from Criollo cacao trees cultivated by indigenous peoples. This cocoa is not only of high quality, but its production deeply respects local traditions and the environment. The company's values ​​reflect a strong commitment to supporting communities and sustainable agriculture. They pay the farmers a price higher than the market price, thus promoting the well-being and independence of the native communities. Choosing products from Herbal Cacao means participating in a chain of positive change that supports communities and preserves traditions.

Ceremonial cacao differs from regular cacao, such as store-bought cacao, in a number of ways, including preparation methods, ingredients, and their cultural significance.

Preparation and Ingredients:
Ceremonial cocoa is made using less processed cocoa, which usually comes from small, family-owned farms. It is often fermented and dried, then roasted at low temperatures to preserve its nutritional value. The cocoa nibs are then ground into a paste, which is shaped into blocks for preparation. This process preserves the cocoa's original nutrients, such as antioxidants and healthy fats. On the other hand, regular cocoa drinks are often made from cocoa roasted at high temperatures, from which the cocoa butter has been removed, leaving behind cocoa powder. This process reduces the amount of nutrients and changes the molecular structure of the cocoa.

Taste and Composition:
Ceremonial cocoa has a fuller flavor and is often stronger in flavor than a regular cocoa drink. It is also thicker and grainier in texture, as it contains less processed cocoa. A regular cocoa drink, on the other hand, is often sweeter and milder, and it contains added sweeteners and dairy products.

Cultural and Spiritual Significance:

Ceremonial cocoa has traditionally been part of rituals and ceremonies, and has been used to promote spiritual and emotional well-being. It has been seen as a link between the earthly and spiritual worlds and has been used in important rituals such as funerals, baptisms and fertility ceremonies. A regular cocoa drink, on the other hand, is often seen as a delicious snack or a comforting drink.

Healthiness:

Ceremonial cocoa is rich in antioxidants, minerals such as magnesium, iron and zinc, as well as other substances beneficial to health, such as theobromine, which is a natural stimulant. A regular cocoa drink often contains less of these nutrients and instead more added sugar and dairy products, which can adversely affect health.

In short, ceremonial cacao offers a deeper and more authentic cacao experience, both culturally and health-wise, while a regular cacao drink is a lighter and often sweeter option that's better suited for quick sipping.

When making ceremonial cacao, start by crumbling or grinding the cacao nib into smaller pieces. This will make the next steps easier. About 30-40 grams of cocoa per person is a good amount to start with, but you can adjust the amount to suit your taste.

Put the cocoa nibs in a pot and add the hot liquid - water or plant milk work well. About 2 dl of liquid per person is a good ratio. Heat the mixture over low heat so that the cocoa slowly dissolves into the liquid. The purpose is not to boil the mixture, but to let the cocoa melt in peace.

Stir the drink regularly to keep it smooth. At this point you can add spices according to your taste. Common spices are, for example, chili, cinnamon or honey. Use spices sparingly - for example, start with half a teaspoon and adjust the taste according to your preferences.

When the cocoa has melted and the drink is smooth, pour it into the cups. Enjoy the drink slowly, allowing it to warm and nourish the body and mind. Ceremonial cocoa is a great way to slow down and connect with the moment.
