West Hollywood moves fast: early pilates, back-to-back meetings on Sunset, dinner on Santa Monica Boulevard. Ceremonial cacao is a way to bring a little calm into that pace. Alma Cacao is 100% whole cacao from single-origin Peru, melted into a rich cup that lifts you gently instead of all at once. Shop ceremonial cacao.

A calmer cup for a busy city

Maybe your morning starts with a class on Melrose, a walk through West Hollywood Park or a hike up Runyon Canyon before the heat. Then the day fills up. Cacao's main compound is theobromine, a gentler relative of caffeine, so it pairs well with a full calendar. Because it lingers, most people keep their cup to the morning or early afternoon. If you are keeping an eye on caffeine, here is how much caffeine a cup holds, from a small cup to a full ceremonial one.

How people drink it

  • As a morning ritual: 20 to 30 grams whisked into hot water and sipped slowly before the day starts.
  • As a latte: blended with oat or almond milk and a pinch of cinnamon.
  • Before a class: a smaller cup, around 15 grams, about an hour ahead.

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 West Hollywood moves.

Early classes, long days, and a calmer ritual to carry them.

Questions from West Hollywood

Where can I buy ceremonial cacao in West Hollywood?

Order online for delivery to any West Hollywood address, with free shipping on orders of $99 or more.

Can I make it with milk?

Yes. Oat, almond and coconut milk all work well. Warm the milk until it steams but does not boil, then blend or froth. More methods in our preparation guide.

Do you deliver ceremonial cacao in West Hollywood?
Yes, to every address in West Hollywood. Free shipping on orders $99+, flat $5.95 under.
Can I replace my coffee with Alma Cacao?
Many people swap one or both of their daily coffees for a cup of cacao. It carries far less caffeine than coffee, and its main compound is theobromine. Go at your own pace, one cup at a time.
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 West Hollywood?
Orders placed by 2 PM Pacific, Monday to Friday, ship the same day. Most arrive within a few days, and unopened product is covered by our 30-day money-back guarantee.
