Wildcraft Ceremonial Cacao
Stone ground organic, single origin & ethically sourced Peruvian Criollo Cacao Beans, made in Tasmania in small batches.
The heirloom Theobroma Cacao trees grow bio-dynamically within their native environment in Peru. The Cacao Pods are traditionally and sustainably harvested, before the beans are fermented and sun-dried, by a co-op of Indigenous Peruvian Cacao farmers. These premium-quality Cacao beans are then stone ground in Tasmania, to bring you a Ceremonial Cacao that is medicinally potent, nourishing & fresh and handcrafted with Love.

Rich, sweet, thick and creamy, this recipe has a beautiful caramel flavour due to the medjool date.
Ingredients:
20 grams (2 heaped tablespoons) chopped Ceremonial Cacao
200ml plant based milk (I love Pureharvest coconut & almond milk)
1 pitted medjool date
a pinch of salt (use Himalayan or Celtic sea salt for added minerals!)
Heat milk on the stovetop, and then add all ingredients into a blender. Whizz to combine for a few seconds. If needed, re-heat again on stovetop.
Pour into your favourite mug ~ sit back, set your intention for the day & enjoy!PS. Be sure to use a heat safe blender for this recipe.

Made by Wild Craft Tasmania.
Along the journey, from seed, to bean, to cup; Wild Craft honour the tradition and craftsmanship that goes into every step:
Naturally Grown: The cacao beans are cultivated in harmony with nature, respecting the inherent balance of the ecosystem. The beans are grown organically and bio-dynamically within their native environment in the pristine Amazon Region of Tarapoto, in the San Martin Province of northern Peru.
Traditionally Harvested: Hand-harvested by skilled and trained farmers, within a safe, natural environment. Sourcing only fair trade certified Cacao Beans.
Fermentation: The beans undergo a fermentation process
which takes up to a week. During this time, the beans flavour and colour develops, evolving from a white/pink, pulpy and 'sour' tasting bean, to a dark purple/brown, rich and flavorsome bean, which holds the familiar 'chocolate' characteristics of Cacao.
Sun Dried: Basking under the gentle rays of the sun, our Cacao Beans are dried to perfection, preserving their nutritional and medicinal potency. The husk dries and forms around the Cacao Bean.
Craftsmanship: Each bean is cracked and winnowed to remove the husk, and meticulously inspected before processing, to ensure only the finest quality beans are made into your block of Ceremonial Cacao.
Stone Grinding: Slowly stone ground in a solar-powered cacao studio in Tasmania, the cacao beans are transformed into a velvety smooth consistency, unlocking their full flavor potential. Every bean is handcrafted with Love, and Intention.
Setting: After 24+ hours, the Ceremonial Cacao is ready to be poured and set overnight. Your Cacao is still alive ~ the 'Cacao Bloom' that develops in this time is your Cacao's own unique fingerprint.
Eco-Conscious Packaging: Packed with care in 100% biodegradable materials.
