HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR SOMA CACAO
All our cacaos are single-origin, meaning that each has a unique flavour and nutritional profile. All are made from whole-bean cacao, antioxidant-rich, packed with essential minerals, and brimming with bliss compounds and happy hormones. All have won international awards, and all are sourced from small, sustainable farms. All our cacaos are brilliant, but which is the cacao for you?
Everyone has a different favourite at Soma Cacao. Our general recommendation is to grab a STARTER PACK to try out a few different varieties, and let your tastebuds choose for you.

Let customers speak for us
The best afternoon pick me up. Love the flavour of this cacao and that it’s pre-ground making it so easy to prepare. Highly recommend!
I'm loving my first order which is the Karkar Island cacao. After reading the descriptions I decided this was the one for me. I wasn't wrong. I love the anticipation as I prepare my little ritual. Then drinking it slowly is like a warm hug!
Looking forward to trying the other variations soon.
Love this cacao. So delicious. I look forward to it every morning 🌄
I am a long-time lover of Soma Cacao, especially their Karkar Island Cacao. It's the best cacao I've ever tried - the quality is unparalleled! <3
The Mexican cacao is delicious. So smooth and creamy. I used to drink hot chocolate as my comfort drink. No more. The Mexican cacao is too good to even compare with hot chocolate. 😋
Elegant, lightweight and very simple to use. The Soma Portable Blender froths the cocao drink nicely.
I love this tea & it's quickly becoming a new favorite. When you want the uplift of a cacao without the heaviness. I enjoy it with a small bit of sweetener & no milk. It's nice cold too, so a good on warmer days. It's worth taking the time to let it steep for 10 minutes & I've even mixed it with some regular black tea. My only "complaint" is that I would like it in a bigger quantity... lol ;)
I love a cup of Soma cacao in the morning.
Absolutely delicious
Delicious, creamy - top quality cacao. Thank you.
I love this cacao and when I taste anything else, it simply doesn't compare. The quality of Soma cacao is second to none, love it!
I drink soma cacao for its wonderful boost effects, which I find more grounded than coffee, while still being creatively locked in and driven.
If I didn’t enjoy the flavour of coffee so much I would be happy living just with soma cacao. Highly recommended.
Great spoon measure perfectly, lovely feel to it . Highly recommend
Not a bad flavour! I even tried without added sweeteners and it was still drinkable. It’s nice to know I’m drinking a healthy version of my fav hot drink.
I have been enjoying Soma Cacao for a good 18 months or more.
Soma have requested a few times, Would I like to review ? And I have always hesitated because of lack of words to describe how Amazing or Euphoric it really is.
Its Almost a hug in a cup, I am completely addicted, I have tried other Cacaos but this is my favourite.
Plenty in each pack to have 4 or 5 drinks out of. Gives you time to really decide. For example, my first go at the Solomon's I was thinking no, not for me, then next day had another and was like, hmmm not so bad and buy the end of the sample pack I was sold. Loved all 3 in my starter pack so can buy the full packs with confidence now.
