Frequently asked questions
How do I dose Moruga Cacao correctly?
We recommend 5-10 drops per 200 ml cup. 5 drops make a milder cacao, similar to a milky coffee. 10 drops make it stronger, similar to a flat white (10 drops equal 15 g). Start with less and add more to taste until it feels perfect for you.
How do I prepare it?
1️⃣ Choose your liquid: water, milk, or a mix of both, for example ⅔ hot water and ⅓ oat milk for a creamier texture.
2️⃣ Heat it up: warm the liquid, ideally not boiling hot.
3️⃣ Mix: add the cacao drops and stir well. A milk frother, shaker, or blender gives you the creamiest result.
4️⃣ Enjoy! Optional: add spices such as cinnamon or vanilla, or sweeten lightly.
Have fun trying it out! 😊🍫
Which liquid works best?
You can prepare our cacao with water, milk, or a mix of both. We usually recommend 1/3 milk or plant-based milk and 2/3 hot water. Some studies suggest that cow's milk can slightly reduce the absorption of certain nutrients from cacao because milk proteins can react with cacao compounds, so we prefer a plant-based option. In the end, choose what tastes best to you.
What is the difference between the varieties?
Just like wine, our cacao varieties differ mainly by origin, climate, and therefore naturally by taste and aroma.
- Chuncho ❤️ This cacao has a rich, buttery taste with fruity notes. Ideal for anyone who enjoys a full-bodied and balanced cacao.
- Tabasqueño 💛 Slightly less acidic than Chuncho, with notes of dark spices, tropical fruit, and walnut. Perfect if you like it intense and spicy.
- Amazonas 💜 A fruity, aromatic cacao with tropical fruit, delicate floral notes, a hint of coconut, and fine citrus freshness. Light, gentle, and elegant in taste, with little bitterness, a pleasant lively acidity, and a clear, balanced profile.
- Udzungwa 🧡 This cacao variety impresses with an intense fruity aroma that combines notes of orange, toffee, and roasted hazelnuts. The cacao is especially mild in bitterness and has a refreshing sweetness.
