"It was a real treat to order this blend and enjoy it while waiting for the Pure Chuncho to arrive. I usually like to add my own spices to the Pure Chuncho but this blend was wonderful too. This is a very special cacao - it's a medicine and it's a very special experience. It elevates my day and has helped countless others in so many ways. I'm grateful for this medicine and this amazing company. xo"
"Absolutely delicious and such a beautiful ceremonial elixir!"
"Phenomenal qauality every time and super fast delivery."
"My package was delivered within the specified time. The cacao is delicious, great purchase! Thank you"
"Pure, sacred, magical !!! Absolutely beautiful and exceptional quality"
"I have been working with KAKAO's Cacao Chuncho for eight years, and she has become a foundational part of my daily ritual and healing journey. She supported my nervous system recovery, helped me feel safe in my body again, and deepened my connection to nature in an embodied and meaningful way. Beyond personal healing, this cacao has been at the heart of my community gatherings. She has guided me gently and consistently toward trust, alignment, and the creation of meaningful local community. I have tried many ceremonial cacaos over the years. This one stands apart. The taste is unbelievably smooth, rich, and clean. The connection feels direct and powerful. If you are looking for cacao with integrity, depth, and a truly beautiful flavor, this is it."
"Very thankful for this KAKAO."
"When my friend told me about this…I honestly saw a twinkle in her eye. I didn’t take it seriously, then finally ordered it 6 months later…and whoa. What a treat! So special. Thank you!"
"I don’t drink coffee. I wanted something warm and natural for the morning. I saw a bunch of videos and recommendations for cacao. I am so glad I went with this brand. The taste is absolutely delicious. I am using almond milk with it and a teaspoon of raw honey. It is so creamy. I love it. I love the clarity and happiness I get after consuming it."
"A beautiful smell of pure cocoa with that blend is perfect for my use"

KAKAO PURE:
Cacao Paste Made With Whole Native Cacao Beans*
*Specific strain/variety: Cacao Chuncho from Peru
Never tempered or conched. Stone ground only. Whole beans always.
Every batch is intentionally made and blessed.
KAKAO is not sold as a solid block, but rather as a granular product that you can easily scoop.
But rest assured, this is Ceremonial Cacao Paste that you're looking for.
If KAKAO was left in the sun, it would melt and return to its original block form, which we simply chopped in a food processor for your convenience.
In non-summer months, it will arrive to your doorstep as a granular product that you can scoop easily with a tablespoon.
If your KAKAO melts while in transit, click here for instructions.
