Frequently Asked Questions

What is cacao?

Cacao is the pure, minimally processed form of the Theobroma cacao bean—literally meaning "food of the gods." Unlike commercial cocoa powder, our ceremonial-grade cacao retains all its natural nutrients, healthy fats, and mood-boosting compounds like theobromine and anandamide. It's been used in sacred rituals for thousands of years by indigenous cultures for its heart-opening and focus-enhancing properties.

What does Unified Cacao taste like?

Rich, deep, and naturally chocolatey with earthy undertones and a smooth, creamy finish. It's less bitter than regular cocoa powder and has a naturally satisfying sweetness from the ceremonial-grade cacao. The adaptogens add subtle complexity without overpowering the pure cacao flavor.

Does it contain caffeine? Will I get jitters?

Unified Cacao contains minimal caffeine but is rich in theobromine—a gentle, heart-opening compound that provides calm, sustained energy without jitters or crashes. The caffeine content is much lower than coffee and is balanced by other nutrients that create a smooth, focused feeling rather than overstimulation.

Do I need to add sweeteners?

Not necessarily! Many people enjoy Unified Cacao as-is for its natural richness. However, if you prefer a touch of sweetness, try a small amount of honey, maple syrup, coconut sugar, or dates. Traditionally, ceremonial cacao is consumed without sweeteners, but meet your body where it's at.

How do I prepare it?

Simple! Add 1-2 tablespoons of Unified Cacao to hot (not boiling) water or your favorite plant milk. Whisk or blend until smooth and frothy. For extra creaminess, add a splash of coconut milk or a teaspoon of coconut oil. Enjoy mindfully as part of your daily ritual.

Where do your ingredients come from?

Our ceremonial-grade cacao is ethically sourced from small co-operative farms in Venezuela. Lion's Mane comes from organic growers in California, Maca from high-altitude farms in Peru, and Pink Rose Salt from the Himalayas. Every ingredient is chosen for purity, potency, and ethical sourcing.

Can I drink it every day?

Absolutely! Unified Cacao is crafted for daily ritual and can be enjoyed as a coffee alternative or anytime you want calm focus and gentle energy. Many people find it becomes an essential part of their morning routine or pre-work ritual.

How is this different from regular cacao blends or hot chocolate?

We use true ceremonial-grade cacao that's minimally processed to preserve maximum nutrients, natural cacao butter, and active compounds. Most cacao powders are heavily processed and lose many benefits. Plus, our adaptogenic blend with Lion's Mane and Maca, combined with mineral-rich Himalayan salt, creates a functional experience designed for focus and wellbeing—not just taste.

Is it safe for children or during pregnancy?

While our ingredients are natural and pure, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider if you're pregnant, nursing, or considering it for young children. The theobromine content is gentle, but it's always best to check with your doctor for your specific situation.

Our Mission

Unified Cacao began as a ritual for creators who refuse to operate in grind mode. It's a daily return to center—the moment before the work begins, when you choose clarity over chaos and presence over push. We believe peak performance doesn't come from chasing caffeine spikes. It comes from ritualising the conditions that allow your best thinking to emerge. Unified Cacao offers a different path than coffee's sharp edge—one chosen by those who create from flow, not force. This is deep work, ritualised.
