Our cacao is sourced ethically and sustainably from Papua New Guinea as whole “pods” and then brought to Australia to be carefully stoneground and dutched in small batches. This means that it’s pretty much the freshest and most vibrant cacao going around, you will immediately notice the incredible chocolate aroma as you open your bag of Cacao Bloom for the first time.

Maca is a root found in the Andes in Peru & Bolivia. It has been traditionally used as a food source and as a natural medicine for centuries. As an adaptogen it has been linked to hormonal balance, fertility and energy. It has an earthful, nutty, caramel taste.

Mesquite is a mineral rich legume superfood originating from dry regions of the Americas. Its uses range from being milled into a flour for bread, cooking with smoke and flavouring various dishes. It has claimed notoriety as a superfood for its high essential mineral content (magnesium, calcium, potassium, iron and zinc).

Frequently Asked Questions

  • A classic yet perhaps under-utilised flavour combos is of course banana and chocolate. We modelled this blend on a traditional choc-banana split and then added a couple of light superfood twists. The mesquite and cinnamon ads a warm caramelised toffee character that completes an exciting joyous flavour bomb!

  • Daily intake of essential vitamins and minerals. As well as antioxidants, dietary fibre and a natural sense of bliss.

  • The short answer is absolutely yes! A morning cup of cacao pairs very well with a second afternoon pick me up or night time treat. Always listen to your body and enjoy in the manner best suited to you.

  • Even though caffeine is present to a small degree in the cocoa bean, the main alkaloid/stimulant is called theobromine (the mild, chilled out cousin of caffeine). Theobromine is a slow releasing, mood boosting compound that can also lower blood pressure. Paired with the high magnesium content of cacao, the effects can actually promote a fulfilled sense of rest and a long lasting aura boost rather than a jittery energy spike sharply followed by an intense crash.

  • Cacao Samba is an all-day, anytime, functionally versatile blend. It can be a great way to energise you and get you motivated and focused in the morning, a mid-morning substitute for that second coffee, a convenient high-fibre superfood snack or even a comforting night-time magnesium rich indulgence that helps you to unwind.

  • Whether you have a stovetop, a steamer, milk frother, campfire or something else, all you need is a way to heat up your milk of choice for a hot drink. For best results we recommend activating your powder with a splash of warm water and then adding your milk to the resulting syrup and then heating with your preferred method. Cacao Samba is also great in a smoothie, just simply add a spoonful for a healthy and nutritious chocolate hit.
