Questions and Answers: Why Ceremonial Cacao?

How is ceremonial cacao made?

Ceremonial cacao is made using traditional methods. Cacao pods are harvested, fermented, sun-dried, and hand-roasted to preserve their nutrients and natural flavors. The beans are then stone-ground into a rich paste without additives or processing.

How is ceremonial cacao different from chocolate?

Ceremonial Cacao differs from normal Cacao in its production, processing, and intended use. Ceremonial Cacao is typically made from the whole cacao bean, minimally processed, and still contains the cacao butter, thus preserving its natural compounds and potency.

In contrast, regular cacao, especially that found in most chocolate products, undergoes extensive processing, roasting, and is often mixed with sugar, milk, and other additives, which highly diminish its medicinal properties. Furthermore, ceremonial Cacao honors ancient practices and supports indigenous communities. Its purpose also differs; while normal cacao is for general consumption, ceremonial cacao is intended for spiritual and therapeutic practices.

How does ceremonial cacao work?

Ceremonial cacao is often described as a heart-opening drink, traditionally used to foster a sense of connection and grounding. Its rich flavor and smooth texture make it a meaningful part of rituals or mindful moments.
