Phoenix Ceremonial Cacao Paste – Chilli Infused 100g

Phoenix Cacao – Ignite Your Spirit, Fuel Your Body

Phoenix is our warming ceremonial cacao, infused with homegrown chillies for those who enjoy a little extra fire in their cup.

Made from 100% pure Pacific cacao and gently infused with chillies grown in our own garden, Phoenix is rich, bold, and beautifully warming. The chilli doesn't overpower the cacao—it simply builds a gentle warmth that lingers long after each sip.

Every block is hand-poured in Aotearoa New Zealand and crafted for those moments when you need courage, clarity, or simply a little spark to brighten your day.

Like the mythical phoenix rising from the ashes, this blend is inspired by renewal, resilience, and transformation.

The rich cacao grounds you, while the gentle warmth of the chilli awakens your senses—a reminder that even the smallest spark can grow into something powerful.

How to Prepare

• Finely chop or grate 25g of Phoenix ceremonial cacao.

• Add the cacao and whisk until smooth.
• Sweeten if desired with honey, maple syrup, or coconut sugar.
• Sip slowly and enjoy the gentle warmth as it unfolds.

Why We Chose This Cacao

Finding cacao that aligned with our values was just as important as finding cacao that tasted incredible.

That's why we source our cacao through The Cacao Ambassador, who work alongside cacao-growing communities throughout the Pacific, building genuine relationships and supporting growers to create more value from every harvest.

The chillies are grown here at home, making Phoenix a beautiful blend of Pacific cacao and our own garden.

From Our Whānau to Yours

Every product at Kaingaroa Plant Lady begins with our own whānau.

Phoenix was created because we love the comforting combination of rich cacao and natural chilli warmth. Once we found ourselves reaching for it again and again, we knew it was something we wanted to share.

We hope it brings warmth, comfort, and a little spark to your day.
