About Us
Holy Cacao was born from a deep love of cacao as both food and medicine. What began as a simple recipe shared with friends has grown into a farmers market favorite and a heart-centered gathering in Los Angeles. For us, cacao is more than a drink—it’s a way to connect, to slow down, and to create community around something nourishing and real.
