Ingredients explained
Raw Cacao
Raw cacao delivers a rich, smooth chocolate flavor while packing a punch of antioxidants, especially flavonoids, to help counter oxidative stress and nourish the skin. It’s also a natural source of essential minerals like Magnesium, Iron, and Copper.**
Beetroot
Vibrant deep pink and packed with earthy flavors, Beetroot has long been one of our favorite ingredients. It delivers nutrients like Folate, Vitamin C, Manganese, Potassium, and fiber, plus powerful plant compounds such as Betanin. Beetroot also contains inorganic nitrates, which may help support healthy blood pressure by converting to nitric oxide.**
Cinnamon
Cinnamon is a cherished culinary spice and has been used as an Ayurvedic remedy for centuries. Its natural sweetness helps reduce the need for added sugars, while its warm, comforting flavour and aroma make it a beloved ingredient.
We've added our organic Cinnamon to Cacao + Collagen to enhance both flavor and health benefits.
Ashwagandha
Ashwagandha is a potent botanical herb, used for thousands of years in traditional Ayurvedic practices, due to its well known ability to help the body adapt to stress. As a renowned adaptogen, it is valued for its unique compounds, particularly Withanolides, which are thought to drive its diverse range of benefits.**
Baobab
Native to Africa, Baobab is a remarkable fruit that naturally dehydrates on the branch, preserving its nutrients without the need for heat or pasteurization. As a result, Baobab has an impressive nutrition profile, often boasting three times more Vitamin C than an orange** and nearly 50% fiber.**
Our organic Baobab has a subtle, sweet-tangy flavor and adds a creamy texture.
Pink Himalayan Salt
Protected by snow and ice, Himalayan Pink Salt remains untouched by modern pollution, making it one of the purest salts on Earth. More than just Sodium, it contains essential electrolyte minerals like Calcium, Magnesium, and Potassium, along with an impressive array of trace minerals.
A pinch of this pristine pink salt enhances both the flavor and nutritional value, delivering a subtle yet impactful touch.
EU Bovine Hydrolysed Collagen Peptides
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body and acts like a structural scaffold, maintaining strength, suppleness and health
Collagen is a vital component of our connective tissues. It is also found throughout other areas of the body - skin, ligaments, bones, tendons, joints, cartilage, gut lining, blood vessels and even our hair, nails and teeth.
Our hydrolysed collagen peptides are a specific size (under 5000DAs) for maximum absorption and bioavailability.
A closer look
Cacao's ancient history
Cacao, the seed of Theobroma cacao or 'Food of the Gods' originates from the Amazon and was cultivated by the Aztecs and Mayans. Historically, it was consumed as a bitter drink and used in spiritual ceremonies, celebrated for its unique, almost mystical qualities.
Ashwagandha - stress support
Ashwagandha’s benefits extend well beyond stress resilience. Known for enhancing stamina and endurance by supporting heart and lung capacity, it also aids in energy and blood sugar balance. Additionally, Ashwagandha contains active compounds that are being studied for their potential to support brain health, making it a versatile herb for overall vitality.
Mineral rich botanicals
Together, ingredients Raw Cacao, Cocoa, Beetroot, Cinnamon, Carob and Baobab provide a spectrum of essential minerals such as magnesium, iron and potassium which are beneficial for various bodily functions including energy production, bone health, muscle function and immune support.
Benefits of beetroot
This earthy powerhouse is rich in inorganic nitrates, which convert to nitric oxide, promoting blood vessel dilation and smoother circulation to support overall cardiovascular health. This benefit may be especially valuable post-menopause, as reduced oestrogen lowers nitric oxide levels, increasing heart disease risk.
Mindful 'me' time
With grounding ingredients and a rich, chocolatey aroma, this nourishing brew invites you to pause for a mindful moment. Taking the time to step away, breathe and savour your drink helps to calm the mind and body, creating a ripple effect of balance and positivity throughout your day.

Reviews
This is really good quality
"This is really good quality chocolate and not full of sugar. I mix it with my almond milk and so it needs sweetening with a little honey, but I like that I can choose how sweet I want it."
— Julia W. (4/5)
Choc drink
"I decided to order the cacao and collagen as a supplement to my subscription. I like a hot chocolate drink but unfortunately I didn’t like the taste of this so will not order again. It just had a slight twang to the taste."
— Linda G. (3/5)
Really nice!
"I think this cacao and collagen taste lovely. It has a nice calming feel, good to have an hour before bed with warm milk. Does leave a little powdery after mixing but not an issue, I just leave tiny bit in bottom of mug. The taste is mildly chocolate. I also take the Wild collagen in morning so am hoping both are doing me good, I feel like they are!"
— Mrs C. (5/5)
Handy but not eco friendly packaging
"Handy but not eco friendly packaging, the box is but the sachets aren't. They are really handy to have when you are travelling."
— Sarah D. (4/5)
Cacao and collagen
"Overall very good but taste still very slightly bitter"
— Suzanne M. (4/5)
Unfortunately not for me.
"Nicely packaged but even although I love chocolate and cinnamon, I wasn't keen on the taste or the grainy residue at the bottom of the mug even though I stirred it thoroughly. This is just personal taste and it seems like a good product but not for me."
— Meryl F. (4/5)
Cacao

— Kim W. (5/5)
