The 'Cacoco' brand offers hot chocolate products that were created as a direct rejection of the ways in which hot chocolate is produced today.
Most hot chocolates on the market are created through a process that takes the fat out of the cocoa bean to turn it into powder, and that requires plenty of sugar in order for it to taste good. This brand's hot chocolate products instead follow a process that was used often in Mesoamerican cultures – grinding the bean into a rich paste and blending it with other products. The brand offers a few different products infused with ingredients such as vanilla bean and Himalayan salt, habanero and reishi extract, turmeric, basil and black pepper and finally, nutmeg, cinnamon and cayenne.
These drinking chocolates have brought an ancient tradition to the mainstream market and provide healthier and more flavorful options for chocolate lovers.
