FAQ's

Can I use dairy milk for my cacao drink?

Studies indicate that cow's milk may reduce the absorption, and therefore the efficacy, of the cacao flavonoids. Casein proteins in milk may bind to flavonoids and reduce their antioxidant activity, heart health, and mood-boosting effects. Plant-based milk is recommended to accompany cacao for maximum efficiency.

Can I use it for recipes other than drinking?

Yes! You can use ceremonial cacao in various ways: as a pre-workout snack, sprinkled over muesli, in energy balls, or incorporated into desserts. It’s also perfect for adding depth to savoury dishes like soups and stews.

How many servings are in each bag?

A 200g bag typically provides 4-10 servings, while a 500g bag can yield 11-25 servings, depending on your preferred portion size.

How much cacao should I have?

For beginners, we suggest starting with 15g and adjusting as needed based on your experience and comfort. If you're already familiar with ceremonial cacao, a typical serving ranges from 20g to 30g for a more immersive experience.

Are Ceremonial Cacao suitable for people with dietary restrictions?

Yes, our ceremonial cacao are vegan, gluten-free and contain no added preservatives or flavours, making them suitable for a wide range of dietary needs. They are a natural and healthy choice for those looking to enhance their diet with the benefits of cacao. If you have any concerns, please consult a dietician before consuming.

What is the difference between cacao powder and ceremonial cacao?

Cacao powder and ceremonial cacao differ in both production and purpose. Cacao powder is made by pressing out most of the cacao butter from roasted cacao beans, resulting in a fine, dry powder typically used for baking and everyday beverages. In contrast, ceremonial cacao is minimally processed from whole, unroasted cacao beans, preserving its natural fats, nutrients, and beneficial compounds. This makes it richer in Theobromine and antioxidants, providing a more potent and holistic experience, often used for rituals, meditation, and heart-centred practices.
