Usually heart of the earth lover but this one turned my head too
I love the deep, dark, rich flavor of Pacala… that stone ground taste with the slightest hint of apple is unique and so grounding.. Love this new Cacao!
I had a deeply moving experience with Soul Lift Cacao. From the moment I opened the package, I could feel the care and intention poured into every part of it — the cacao itself, the guidance, and the energy behind it.
During my ceremony, I felt layers of emotion surface that I hadn’t given space to in a long time. Grief, release, and a quiet reconnection with myself came through in waves. This wasn’t just a drink — it was a portal. I cried. I softened. And afterward, I felt more grounded, clear, and open.
What I appreciated most was that the experience met me exactly where I was. It didn’t rush me. It held me.
Soul Lift Cacao helped me open a space that felt sacred and real — one I’ll continue to return to.
Thank you for creating something so meaningful and accessible. I’m grateful.

I had traveled to Costa Rica and had helped prepare cacao. It was wonderful to have it again. One review mentioned gumminess. I didn't have that all in the cacao I received. It scraped easily off block, had delicious undertones, and I definitely would order again. ¡Pura vida!
I love this cacao it smells and tastes amazing
I like the way it crumbles when you chop it reminds me of the earth
This has become one of my go to cacao's
This is one of my favourite cacao's, has a great flavour and for me is such a gentle heart opening Cacao
I also love the quality and the ethics and transparency that soul lift provide with all of their products and offerings
I usually have four or five different blocks of cacao at any given time. Betena has become one of my favorites from the very first cup. I just wanted to try cacao from Costa Rica and did not have any expectations. It is a perfect balance for the Heart of the Earth. Betena gives me a cozy feeling. It is not strong, but I definitely have a special connection with it. I find myself reaching for it more often than not. It will definitely be in my regular rotation.
I was very grateful to be recommended this course and guidebook by a friend, as I have been looking to learn more about cacao. I appreciate the depth and nature of information and that it is offered from an authentic perspective. The guidebook is perfect to accompany the course, and I am glad to have it to refer back to. Would definitely recommend!
Heart of the Earth, what a great name for an amazing tasty and uplifting drink. I float after my morning warm cacao drink. I would highly recommend buying from Soul lift as it is an easy, affordable and fast process.
This cacao is rich, deep, earthy but soft and mellow. My all time favorite! 💚
I love this interesting taste that has a great chocolate taste. I will definitely add this to my many cacao varieties.
Heart of the Earth (Ruk'u'x Ulew) 100% Pure Ceremonial Cacao from Guatemala
I had the great gift of meeting Iziais, the founder of LavaLove Cacao, in Peru. He is a true gem of a healer and I wholeheartedly know that his work with Cacao is in absolute integrity. Each day that I drink LavaLove I feel connected to his loving prayers and songs. I feel connected tot he land and to volcanoes. I feel connected in my heart and am supported by LavaLove cacao to ignite my inner fires and manifest my deepest dreams. Thank you Iziaias and LavaLove Cacao for being such good medicina!
So good! Got my whole family addicted to it! Makes me feel good instead of jittery like coffee and the flavor is so much better
I’ve tried every cacoa offered by SoulLift and a few other, and this is my least favorite. The texture is grittier and even mildly rubbery, for lack of better description. It does not blend well. The taste is just ok- there is a identifiable essence of dirt/soil, which some may like, but it’s just too earthy for me.
Wonderful flavor. Provides consistent energy in a calm manner.
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.
Wonderful product, wonderful people, ethical and beyond fair trade
One of my favorites; especially to for ceremonies.
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.
Could not ask for a better product
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!
