SOMA SUPERFOODS
Introducing Soma Superfoods, our new range of ancient, natural treasures carefully selected to complement and enhance your daily cup(s) of cacao.
(proposis spp.) ‘The Superfood Sweetener’ is a naturally sweet flour made by milling the pods of the mesquite tree.
TASTES: sweet, nutty, caramelly
HEALTH BENEFITS: Mesquite powder is 30% fibre, which supports digestion, feeds gut bacteria, and keeps us feeling full. It contains all essential amino acids, making it a complete protein source(!!), which is particularly important for those of us with a plant-based diet. It also contains high quantities of polyphenols and flavanoids (antioxidants), as well as calcium, magnesium, potassium, and iron.
USES: The complex sugars and fibre in mesquite make it an ideal low-glycaemic sweetener. Use it to gently sweeten your cacao, blend it into smoothies, sprinkle it over breakfast. Great for people looking to cut down on processed sugar.
(pouteria lucuma) ‘Incan Gold’ is an Andean fruit that looks like the love-child of a mango and an avocado, raised to think it was a kiwi-fruit
TASTES: like maple syrup and mango, with a rooty roast yam texture
HEALTH BENEFITS: contains an awful lot of antioxidants (particularly polyphenols and carotenoids), which fight oxidative stress. High in fibre, iron, zinc, calcium, magnesium, and B-Vitamins. Low-GI, regulates blood sugar. Contains beta-carotene, which improves skin and eye health.
USES: Lucuma is a superfood that is genuinely delicious (like cacao). Try making ice-cream with it, or adding it to chia puddings or smoothies. Wow the in-laws with a cacao-lucuma fudge.
(Lepidium meyenii) ‘Andean Adaptogen’ is a root vegetable used for thousands of years to boost energy, balance hormones, and enhance fertility.
TASTES: nutty, earthy, a little sweet, with malt or butterscotch undertones
HEALTH BENEFITS: maca is an adaptogen, meaning it helps the body maintain homeostasis. It supports the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, balancing cortisol levels and increasing resistance to stress. It contains glucosionates and macamides, which regulate the endocrine system, maintaining hormone balance and improving fertility in both women and men. It contains protein, fibre, iron, magnesium, calcium, and B-Vitamins, and enhances cell function.
USES: not as sweet as mesquite, but the flavour does match very well with chocolate. Sprinkle over breakfast, use in baking, add to pancakes. Pop it on popcorn to make movie night healthy. Also, like cacao, an aphrodisiac…
myrciaria dubia) ‘Vitamin C Superberry’ is a small, sour berry native to the Amazon.
TASTES: like a mixture of lime and cranberry. We sell it as a freeze-dried powder, in which the flavour is not as pronounced. Pairs well with sweet fruit, also freshens a cup of cacao.
HEALTH BENEFITS: contains 60 times more Vitamin C by weight than oranges. Vitamin C strengthens the immune system, promotes collagen production, and supports iron absorption. Camu-camu contains flavonoids, polyphenols, and ellagic acid (antioxidants that protect cells and reduce inflammation). It boosts serotonin production and strengthens the adrenals.
USES: tastes like berries when stirred through oats or yoghurt. Gives zip to a morning cacao. Can be incorporated into a face masque - apply to face, pour a warm mug of cacao, turn off your phone, and have a private spa day.
Let customers speak for us
I love the rich chocolate flavour of this cacao. I don't add any sugar or other sweetener as it doesn't need it, keeping it nice and healthy.
I am so obsessed with this Cacao.
My friend recommended it to me and I jave not even wanted to try anything else. It is creamy and tasty.
I have tried so many different brands of cacao and for some reason I keep coming back to this one. I first bought the sample pack from Soma and out of the whole selection I liked this one best. The taste is chocolaty without being overly bitter like some other brands and when mixed with milk actually fully dissolves. I have tried others which have had so much residue at the bottom that 1/4 of what I made was unable to be consumed. But Daintree not only taste good there is least residue left on the bottom of my cup than other brands I have tried.
I started on the Daintree and am Currently drinking the Peruvian and really enjoying every sip . I love it unsweetened !
Drinking this cacao is like drinking a soothing warm hug. It's dreamy and calming. It has a rich smokey flavour. Soma is an excellent company to deal with and I admire their stance on sourcing cacao ethically. Highly recommended.😊👍
This spoon is perfect for measuring the perfect amount of cacao. I have two, and each one is subtly different, smooth, rich in colour and adds another beautiful layer to my morning ritual.
Top quality - highly recommended.
Amazing to experience the different flavours of cacao. We love our daily healthy ritual of hot drinking cacao.
But all of the Somacacao taste different from each other. My favourite is the Mexican and looking forward to having it back in stock. I have some organic Cacao Powder from my life before Somacacao and something made me try it again recently... won't be doing that again.... I'd rather go without.
We love our Soma Cacao everyday. It's now been 6 months since we made the switch from coffee. We will never go back. Our favorite is the Daintree and second is the Papua New Guinea one. Thank you 😊
Love the taste probably my favorite
I’ve been enjoying this every day for the last month - it can be a bit hard to blend/melt with milk without the blending wand, but I actually prefer having the chunky solid cocoa bits in hot milk
Always loving your soma cacao, always enjoy the quality and flavour.
I use Lucuma powder with cocoa so I don't need to use honey. It's sweet enough for me. Will be buying it again.
We really enjoyed the ceremonial cacao. Far superior to supermarket cacao.
It has replaced my morning coffee. I enjoy it with oat milk.
Really enjoying this tea. I've found other cacao teas bitter and not enjoyable, but this one is lovely.
