A Simple Guide to Preparing Ceremonial Cacao

step 1

Boil the kettle and let it sit while you make your cacao. You want the water to be hot, not boiling.

step 2

Put 20g of shaved ceremonial cacao into your blender with 80-120ml milk of your choice.

step 3

Add your sweetener of choice to taste. We love using honey, maple syrup, coconut sugar or stevia.

step 4

Add 100-150ml of hot water.Then blend for 10s or until frothy.

    Cacao Collective - A beautiful start to me day.

    I recently discovered Cacao Collective Cacao, and it has quickly become a treasured part of my morning ritual. The quality is exceptional—rich, smooth, and deeply nourishing. Starting my day with a warm cup helps me feel grounded, connected, and open-hearted. It’s more than just a drink; it’s a moment of mindfulness and intention. I truly love it and highly recommend it to anyone looking to bring more presence and joy into their daily routine.

    I wake up so excited for my cacao :)

    I've been drinking this cacao for almost 2 years now and it's changed the game! Recently I went on holidays for 3 weeks without my cacao and I really missed it, I will always be travelling with it now. I can't tell you how much calmer I feel throughout the day whilst also having such great energy. Thanks team <3

FAQS

Need help? We’ve got you covered.

HOW MUCH CACAO SHOULD I HAVE?

We often recommend 10-15g for first time users in approximately 150-200mls of water; moderate use between 15-30g in 180-230mls of water; for ceremonial doses between 35-42g in 200-250mls of water. In any case, we recommend each individual works their way up to larger doses, listening to how their body responds before increasing. If using plant milks (recommended for enhanced flavour & texture), cut down on the amount of water used. A blender of some sort is always recommended if looking to create the smoothest drink possible.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I HAVE CACAO?

That's up to you to decide. Everyday is absolutely fine. If you feel called for a second serving, we recommend having it several hours apart using a lower dose. Like anything, we also recommend intermittent breaks. There are no set standards for this, and we leave this up to your preference.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CEREMONIAL CACAO & CACAO POWDER?

Cacao powder is simply an extra processed form of cacao paste. It generally undergoes enormous pressure & heat (unless cold pressed) to separate the natural fatty acids from the other constituents of the cacao bean, leaving a powder behind. If nothing else is done to the powder, you have a pure cacao powder product. Cacao powder contains none of the fatty acids from the whole bean, so is lower in nutritional content compared to cacao paste. There are additional processes cacao powder may go through, which turns it into a cacao-based product, commonly called 'cocoa'. One major process includes roasting at high temperatures, which research shows significantly or completely destroys antioxidant content & other heat sensitive nutrition, thereby reducing the health benefits significantly. Other steps include alkalising through a process called dutching, or having additional ingredients added like milk, sugar, and preservatives. 100% organic criollo cacao paste is the highest quality, and most robust cacao for consumption.

WHY IS CACAO SO GOOD FOR YOU?

Cacao is arguably one of the most nutrient-dense plant products on earth. It contains many essential minerals such as: iron, zinc, magnesium, chromium, manganese, calcium and other trace minerals. It's rich in antioxidants and mood-boosting compounds to support your health and well-being.

CAN YOU CONSUME CACAO WHILST BREASTFEEDING?

Yes - we would even argue it’s incredibly beneficial whilst breastfeeding. As a duty of care, we always recommend you speak with your trusted healthcare professional if you’re interested in using cacao whilst breastfeeding your baby.

CAN YOU CONSUME CACAO WHILST PREGNANT?

Yes - we would even argue it’s incredibly beneficial whilst pregnant. As a duty of care, we always recommend you speak with your trusted healthcare professional if you’re interested in using cacao whilst pregnant.
