HOW MUCH CACAO SHOULD I HAVE?
We recommend starting with 15g and working your way up based on how you feel. If you have drank ceremonial cacao before, anywhere between 20g-30g is fine.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I HAVE CACAO?
You can have it everyday! We recommend having larger doses (20g+) before 2pm. If you’d like an evening cacao, keep your dose around 10g.
WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CEREMONIAL CACAO AND CACAO POWDER?
Ceremonial cacao is pure chocolate in its original form, whereas cacao powder is the defatted version, which generally contains less nutrients.

What our customers think
“Today I am 23 days of no coffee and I can honestly say It wouldn’t be possible without the guys from Cacao Collective! I’ve tried so many things but nothing tastes as good as this cacao, it just hits the spot, I don’t crave coffee at all and there are so many health benefits!”

This has been helping me immensely to cut out coffee. I noticed my anxiety was so much worse having too much caffeine. I’m in lock-down, so having the cacao has been life-saving!

We are now on our third bag and absolutely love it! I can’t drink coffee and was looking for an alternative, now I am in love. Amazing quality, and customer service. We only buy 1kg bags to keep us going.
