This is PURE Cacao with no other ingredients. If you are looking for our Signature Blend, click here. Please read this entire page for all pertinent information about KAKAO Pure, including nutrition facts and more.
Pure cacao is naturally very bitter. To soften its bitterness, it can be mixed with a sweetener of your choice. We recommend our Organic Panela for best results (plus it's low glycemic!). See our recipe below or our preparation page to receive guidance on how to best enjoy this powerful, heart opening elixir.

KAKAO PURE:
Cacao Paste Made With Whole Native Cacao Beans*
*Specific strain/variety: Cacao Chuncho from Peru
Stone Ground, Minimally Processed and Produced with Intention
Never tempered or conched. Stone ground only. Whole beans always.
Every batch is intentionally made and blessed.
NOT a block (in non-summer months)
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.
