A Tampa kind of ritual

A sunrise run on Bayshore Boulevard, a slow morning in Seminole Heights, a walk along the Riverwalk before work. Ceremonial cacao gives the day a gentler start. It carries far less caffeine than coffee, and its main compound, theobromine, is what many people describe as a steadier lift.

Try it the Tampa way, as a cacao con leche. Melt two tablespoons in a splash of hot water, then top it with steamed whole milk or oat milk. On hot afternoons, pour it over ice instead.

Why Alma Cacao

Calm. Clear. Connected.

A gentler lift

Cacao carries far less caffeine than coffee. Its main compound is theobromine, which many people describe as a calmer, steadier lift.

Room to focus

A warm, slow cup for long mornings and deep work. Made to be sipped, not gulped.

A daily ritual

Five quiet minutes to pause, set an intention and come back to yourself.

The whole bean

Pure cacao paste with its natural cacao butter, so it melts into a thick, rich cup. One ingredient.

A ritual, not a routine

Made for the way Tampa moves.

Bay light, long runs and a cup that keeps its calm.

Why people switch

A different kind of morning cup.

Your morning coffee

  • A fast, sharp lift
  • Easy to overdo by the afternoon
  • Brewed and strained
  • Usually gulped on the go

Alma Cacao

  • A slower, gentler lift
  • Far less caffeine than coffee
  • The whole bean, nothing strained out
  • A ritual you make and sit with

Questions from Tampa

Where can I buy ceremonial cacao in Tampa?

Online, delivered to your door anywhere in Tampa Bay. Grocery stores mostly carry cocoa powder and nibs; ceremonial cacao paste like Alma Cacao usually comes straight from the brand.

Can I swap my morning coffee for cacao?

Many people swap one of their daily coffees for a cup of cacao. Try a cacao con leche: melt two tablespoons in a splash of hot water and top it with steamed milk.

Do you deliver to St. Petersburg and Clearwater?

Yes, to every address in Hillsborough and Pinellas County, with free shipping on orders of $99 or more.

Can my café or studio carry Alma Cacao?

Yes. We work with cafés, yoga studios, wellness centers and retreats. See our wholesale program.

How is it different from cacao powder at the store?
Powder is what is left after most of the cacao butter is pressed out. Alma Cacao is the whole bean ground into a paste with its butter still in, so it melts into a thick, rich cup. It is single-origin Peru and lab tested for heavy metals.
What makes it "ceremonial"?
Purity and intention. 100% cacao with nothing added, prepared slowly as a ritual rather than a snack. Read what ceremonial cacao is.
How much should I use?
10 to 20 grams (1 to 2 tablespoons of pieces) makes a daily cup, and about 40 grams is a full ceremonial serving. Our dosing guide walks you through it.
How fast is delivery to Tampa?
Orders placed by 2 PM Pacific, Monday to Friday, ship the same day. Most arrive within a few days, and every order is covered by our 60-day money-back guarantee.
