Cacaoii started with a simple question.

Why does getting energy have to come with compromises?

Coffee makes millions of people feel productive, but for many, it also brings jitters, crashes and a constant cycle of needing the next cup. Energy drinks often solve one problem while creating another.

We believed there had to be a better way.

During our search, we rediscovered something that has been enjoyed for thousands of years: ceremonial-grade cacao.

Not the sweetened hot chocolate most people know, but pure cacao in its original form. Rich in minerals, naturally containing theobromine rather than relying on high doses of caffeine, and traditionally used to support focus, presence and wellbeing.

The feeling was different.
Calmer.
Clearer.
More sustainable.

It quickly became part of our own daily routine.

But when we started looking for cacao ourselves, we noticed something frustrating.

Many brands made bold claims, yet very few told us where their cacao actually came from, who grew it or whether it had ever been independently tested.

So we decided to build the brand we wished existed.

One that is completely transparent about where every cup begins.

Today, our ceremonial cacao comes from CRASVIDMIL, a small organic cooperative near Lago de Yojoa, Honduras. The cooperative consists of 52 farming families, including 14 women-led farms, growing organic Trinitario cacao on fertile volcanic soils. Harvesting, fermentation and drying are all carefully managed locally, creating exceptional quality while providing stable livelihoods for the community.

From there, every batch is crafted in Amsterdam with as little processing as possible.

Nothing added.
Nothing removed.
Just pure ceremonial-grade cacao.

Because quality starts at the source, every batch is also independently laboratory tested. Our cacao is screened for hundreds of pesticide residues, with no detectable pesticide residues above reporting limits, and tested for cadmium to ensure it complies with strict European food safety standards.

For us, that's what premium should mean.

Not clever marketing.
Not vague promises.
Real transparency.

Today, Cacaoii is still built around the same belief that started everything:

Energy should feel good.

Not rushed.

Not overwhelming.

Just a daily ritual that helps you feel focused, present and ready for whatever comes next.

Why trust our ceremonial cacao?

We believe you should know exactly what you're drinking.

That's why we choose complete transparency over marketing buzzwords.

• Single-origin ceremonial-grade cacao from Honduras.

• Organic Trinitario cacao, grown by a cooperative of 52 farming families.

• Thoughtfully sourced, supporting long-term relationships with growers.

• Minimally processed, preserving the natural cacao butter and nutrients.

• Independently laboratory tested for pesticides and cadmium before each harvest is used in production.

Because trust isn't something you claim.

It's something you can prove.
