Cacao from México 320g [SOLD OUT]

Ceremonial Cacao

Cacao has been cultivated by indigenous cultures for thousands of years and is considered a sacred plant. The taste varies depending on the cacao variety and processing method.

Ceremonial grade cacao differs from commercial cacao used in chocolate production. They are often industrialized hybrid cacao varieties to which sugar, milk powder and other ingredients are added. Ceremonial cacao, also called raw cacao, is 100% pure cacao paste, without any additives and without anything being extracted from the cacao. In this case, raw means as much as pure. Because of the processing, including the fermentation of the cacao beans, high temperatures are already reached, so that the cacao is no longer "raw" in the understanding of raw food.

About the Heart Essence México Cacao - 100% pure handmade cacao paste

Derived from the exquisite Almendra Blanca variety, it flourishes in the proximity of indigenous Mayan communities nestled between the southern reaches of Tabasco and the northern expanse of Chiapas. This lush domain, often referred to as Selva Zoque, boasts not only a rich cultural heritage but also a tapestry of high fertility and unparalleled biodiversity. Immerse yourself in the essence of this unique terroir.

México cacao is known for its particularly high quality, unique taste and rich cultural heritage. According to legend, the feather god Quetzalcoatl dropped the seeds of the sacred cacao in the Tabasco region out of love for the people. The cacao culture has its roots in México with the Olmec.

To this day, cacao plays an important role in traditional Mexican cuisine and culture.
