KAKAO is a high-vibe, ceremonial-grade drinking chocolate made from whole cacao beans. Our cacao is sourced from Peru in the native strain called 'Chuncho' via direct trade.
A large part of KAKAO's non-profit mission is to help protect the native strains of cacao and the communities which cultivate them.

Our Sourcing & Production Methods
We ship worldwide. Our products are also available to be shipped from USA, Europe and Australia/NZ.
Ingredients & Nutrition
Ingredients:
- 100% Whole cacao beans (stone-ground into a paste and then chopped for your convenience)
- Panela*
- Chile powder
- Whole vanilla beans
*Panela: Raw, unprocessed sugar from Peru; high in minerals and known for its healing properties.
All of our ingredients are directly sourced in Peru from small, wild farms that are natively owned.
KAKAO is not sold as a block. But rest assured, this is 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.

Learn How KAKAO Blessings Came To Be
Introducing the October blessing of KAKAO….The CURIOSITY Edition 🐝
With this cup of KAKAO and my curiosity, I embark on an adventure.
I explore the inner realms of my imagination.
Where is my curiosity guiding me today?
I find myself in an enchanted garden, every curiosity that once buzzed into my awareness has now morphed into a bumblebee.
Which one is piquing my interest to follow?
How playful can self exploration be when I know any flight path will lead to honey. Stopping at all the flowers along the way. Taking in the colours, scents, textures and shapes.
Acting on my curiosities tastes like nectar, I travel from one flower to the next, my internal signpost directs the course by sparking joy along the way.
My curiosity has been planting seeds from the beginning, follow the hums, this is the sweetness of life.
When you sit with your KAKAO, we invite you to ponder what curiosities pop into your field that your intuition is guiding you towards pursuing. It may be something that seems so insignificant, the tiniest of whispers or something that gives you full body chills. Neither is more meaningful than the other. All of your curiosities lead to honey.
The CURIOSITY Edition of KAKAO is available through October.
