This variety is very smooth! It chops easily, it smells soooo rich and just hits so smooth. One of my favorite varieties from Soul Lift.
Can’t believe the price is $70!! Before shipping. This is insane pricing. Definitely find cacao elsewhere. Keith’s cacao and Fly kakao are amazing and way better price.
Hi Rachel, we published an article on our blog explaining why the price of Heart of the Earth cacao has gone up recently. But in short it's due to the unique challenges the indigenous cacao producers are facing. They're a 100% Mayan woman-owned business in Guatemala. The other brands you mentioned aren't, and one of them just exports seeds to process in a foreign facility. Our model has always been about supporting indigenous sovereignty with ceremonial cacao, and that means it'll cost more than many other products, especially ones made in a modern facility. We also have an article on our blog explaining why our products are priced the way they are in general, and how it's more ethical than 'fair trade' standards. Authenticity costs more, and we're proud to support the historical stewards of cacao. And we also offer a money-back guarantee if anyone doesn't feel the difference and comes to us directly for support, as suggested on the packing slip that arrives with each order.
Smooth and calming, distinct mushroom flavor. Glad I tried it, but Heart of the Earth remains my go-to cacao.
I do Heart Centered Candlelight Cacao Ceremonies. These are usually at the end and the beginning of the year. In most cases they sell out.
The flavor is amazing. I usually add more cacao. I wonder sometimes if it could melt more. I personally love feeling the cacao melting on my tongue. I feel more connected to the Cacao this way. I highly recommend this cacao for ceremonies. It’s also a lower amount in caffeine which is important when doing a sound bath.
But I’d like it to be more smooth for attendees; especially those that are new to Cacao.
Including the pen is a very nice gesture! The pen itself seems a bit flimsy, but we’ll see how long the cartridge lasts. It seems to write well and smoothly now, after a couple of weeks of use. Thanks again!
Very smooth flavor, light and not as earthy as some of the others. Great for introducing new people to cacao. Has quickly become one of my favorites!
I absolutely love this creamy TukTuk cacao paste. Not as chocolatey or rich as my beloved Heart of the Earth, but delightful with a slightly sweet caramel flavor. TukTuk is like treating yourself to a decadent, blissful dessert!
Without a doubt, Heart of the Earth is my favorite cacao paste for grounding, journaling, and spiritual work. I add it to rose tea, honey, and a little cinnamon. I find it very potent for at least three hours, so avoid doing anything which might need your full attention (like chopping vegetables) until the bliss has diminished. With its lovely heart-opening and earthy flavor, Heart of the Earth is perfect for private or public ceremonies.
This came up as a suggested add on when making my last purchase and I was hesitant at first, but soooo glad I did. We have fallen in love with this blend. It smooth tasting and at the end has a small pepper zing., but Not overbearing (I don't like spicy). We especially like this blend when sitting in front a fire, warms ya up, inside and out. A suggested add on has made us regular buyers. Thank you!
I use LavaLove as part of a blend with three others and this one adds a nutty, heart-opening feel. Will be buying again!
Smooth, enriching, earthy. One of my go-to's. It does help that I've been to their farm and shop and see how they handle their cacao and practice ceremony so I'm sure this enhances the repeated experience for me. One of my favs.
Opens my heart and soul to receiving my highest good in all ways! So grateful for Soul Lift
