The Heart of Cacao Nature
The cacao plant (Theobroma cacao) is a tropical tree native to Central and South America. It produces large, pod-like fruits filled with seeds, commonly known as cacao beans.
These beans are the foundation of chocolate and ceremonial cacao, valued for their rich flavor and nutrient-dense properties. Indigenous cultures have revered cacao for centuries, using it in rituals, medicine, and daily nourishment.

frequently asked questions
What makes Alma Cacao different from other cacao products?
Alma Cacao is more than just cacao — it’s a return to ritual.
Unlike many commercial cacao products, Alma Cacao is 100% pure, ceremonial-grade, and traditionally fermented — sourced directly from native communities in Peru, Guatemala, and Ecuador who have honored this sacred plant for generations. We never add sugar, fillers, or preservatives. What you get is a clean, unprocessed block of cacao crafted with intention, deep respect for the land, and a commitment to sustainability.
It’s not just what’s in it — it’s the energy behind it.
Is Alma Cacao safe to drink daily?
Yes, Alma Cacao can be enjoyed daily as part of a mindful wellness routine.
It’s made from 100% pure, unprocessed cacao with no additives, sugar, or synthetics. That said, cacao is naturally rich in theobromine — a gentle, plant-based stimulant — so we recommend starting with a smaller amount if you’re new to ceremonial cacao or sensitive to stimulants. As always, if you have any health conditions or are pregnant, it’s best to consult with your healthcare provider before introducing something new into your daily routine.
What are the health benefits of Alma Cacao?
While we avoid making medical claims, many people turn to ceremonial cacao as a part of their wellness rituals for its grounding, heart-opening qualities and its ability to support presence and connection. Alma Cacao is made from pure, traditionally fermented cacao — naturally containing theobromine and essential compounds found in the cacao bean.
It’s often used as a mindful alternative to coffee, loved for its rich flavor and the way it can gently support clarity, intention, and emotional balance. We always recommend listening to your body and creating space for ritual as you explore how it feels for you.
How do I prepare Alma Cacao?
Preparing Alma Cacao is a sacred, simple ritual. Start by chopping or shaving about 1–1.5 tablespoons of cacao from the block. Add it to a small pot with 6–8 oz of hot water (not boiling) and whisk gently until smooth and frothy. You can also blend it for a creamier texture.
Enjoy it as-is for a pure, grounding experience — or personalize your cup with a pinch of cinnamon, cayenne, plant milk, or a natural sweetener if desired.
Sip slowly. Set an intention. Let it be more than a drink — let it be a moment of connection.
Is Alma Cacao vegan and sustainably sourced?
Yes — Alma Cacao is 100% vegan and consciously sourced from native communities in Peru, Guatemala, and Ecuador. We work directly with small-scale farmers and indigenous families who honor traditional growing and fermentation practices, ensuring fair trade relationships and deep respect for the land.
There are no animal products, additives, or fillers — just pure, ceremonial-grade cacao crafted with intention and care for both people and planet.
Can I replace coffee with Alma Cacao?
Many people choose Alma Cacao as a mindful alternative to coffee. While it doesn’t contain caffeine, it does offer theobromine — a naturally occurring compound in cacao that provides a gentle, sustained sense of energy without the sharp spikes or crashes often associated with coffee.
It’s perfect for those seeking a more grounded, heart-centered start to their day. As always, every body is different — so we recommend tuning in and seeing how it feels for you.
