what is

Ceremonial Cacao?

Ceremonial Cacao is simply whole Cacao beans – fermented, sun-dried, peeled and slowly ground at a low temperature into a rich, smooth paste. Nothing added, nothing taken away.

The paste is poured into moulds, left to set, and then makes its way to PlusCacao HQ – and from there, to your cup.

People behind PlusCacao


We are two people brought together by Cacao — and for the past nine years, we’ve been building our little world around it.

We started with no experience, no industry background and no ready-made blueprint. Just curiosity, a lot of passion and plenty of trial and error.
There have been highs, lows, mistakes and moments when we had to start again — but every step has taught us something.

Cacao has taken us much further than we ever imagined. It helped us learn Spanish, opened doors to incredible people and communities in the Dominican Republic, Liberia and São Tomé, and gave us friendships and stories we would never have found otherwise.

We love Cacao. We love music. And somewhere along the way, Cacao became much more than a product for us — it became a daily ritual.

What once started with two cups at our table has grown into three.
Every morning, we prepare our Cacao, sit down together and simply spend time as a family.
No rush.
Just music, conversation, Cacao and us.

We truly love what we do.
And after nine years, our mission is still the same: to share the Cacao we love, the stories behind it, and a little piece of the magic we’ve discovered along the way.

Love this one. I have tried all three of the limited editions and this one is my favourite. It’s quite dreamy and great for meditation. It gives a sense of euphoria but in a balanced way. However, I do catch myself drifting away every now and then. I prefer to take a dose of between 30g and 40g first thing which seems to suit me.

This cacao tastes a little bit stronger than the Gorilla but it is absolutely magical! Cacao has really changed my life, coming with all of the health benefits. Justyna and her partner are an incredible team and I highly recommend their delicious cacao!

I have recently received this cacao as part of the “collect the stickers” promotion. I normally order the Lion’s Claw, but I chose this as a promotional sample and I am actually quite surprised as how smooth it tastes. I love it. I will be ordering this one in the future. Thank you

I have bought from here before. They are always amazing. 🤩. The cacao medicine is always fantastic. I love the one from Sierra Leon. But I start to branch out and try some others that they offer. Thank you 🙏
