Try adding some Cacao Lumá to your morning bowl of yoghurt and berries to liven up your morning routine.

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.

Antioxidants are a group of molecules that are categorized by their ability to neutralise “free radicals” which are unstable molecules, caused by oxidation, that can harm your cells, causing what is known as “oxidative stress”. Introducing antioxidant rich foods to your diet is a great way to support overall health, recovery and maintaining a natural glow. There are many different antioxidants found in many different food sources, especially fruit and veg. In cacao you will find an abundance of flavanols, a type of polyphenol that is linked to the cardiovascular system.

Although not closely related in a botanical sense, Maqui and Acai share a similar field of play as antioxidant rich purple berries that hail from South America. It is actually the anthocyanins (antioxidants) that give these superfoods their colour, and while acai boasts a lovely cool pink colour, the deep bluey purple of the maqui berry speaks to higher antioxidant activity. Both berries have become popular health foods, with acai bowls even becoming a popular trend over the last few years. We want to make sure the maqui berry doesn’t get left behind as we think that, between the two contenders, maqui wins out when it comes to chocolate with it’s slightly more looming and dark cherry-like flavour.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • For this blend we wanted to create a blissful and aromatic red velvet inspired sip. Blended with delicious beetroot, Davidson plum and Maqui berry, and then lightly spiced with cinnamon, exploring the dark fruit tones of our tropical cacao. This blend is like no other, the colour is just amazing and the flavour is to die for. If you are a fan of dark chocolate and berries you will probably love this.

  • This blend offers a wide range of antioxidant benefits that can help to repair and heal damaged cells. This promotes a healthy glow both inside and out!

  • 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 Lumá 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 antioxidant rich 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 Lumá is also great in a smoothie, just simply add a spoonful for a healthy and nutritious chocolate hit.

  • This blend is certainly safe and energising for any age group. However its flavour profile is designed more for adults, if you are after a healthy cacao blend for your little ones we recommend the Cacao Bloom or the Cacao Junior.
