Wildly Organic's Natural, Clean-Eating Recipes & Blog

Move over, fad diets and health scams! It’s time to reveal the truth about the health benefits of the ever-desired, yet ever-avoided indulgence foods. We’re putting the spotlight on cacao! 

This raw bean product has been misunderstood (and often misspelled) for so long, but its centuries-long legacy as a delicacy and commodity far surpasses modern misconceptions and grammatical errors. Listen no more to the lamentations of dieters avoiding fat, carbs, or indulgent “unhealthy” foods. Cacao’s benefits for your health are many.

The Whole30® diet focuses on eating plenty of vegetables, fruits, meat and seafood, nuts, seeds, and healthy oils. If you're trying out a Whole30® diet, it's time to stock your pantry. The good news is that Wildly Organic carries plenty of products that are Whole30® friendly!

Can you imagine a life without chocolate? I don't even want to think about it. Without the cacao bean, we wouldn't have chocolate. So it's safe to say that the cacao bean may be one of man's greatest discoveries. This leads to the manufacturing of chocolate – quite possibly one of man's most significant achievements. From raw cacao nibs and organic cacao butter to fair trade cocoa and rich dark chocolate, it's safe to say we've fallen in love with anything and everything made from the cacao bean!

Confused by the sheer multitude of marketing terms used to describe cacao products? We’ll try and clear it up for you here.

First things first — there's a difference between cocoa and cacao (hint: the highly processed version is the former). Next, you need to decide if you want raw, organic, fair trade, non-GMO, sustainably harvested or blessed by fairies (okay, not really). 

There’s nothing better than an old fashioned nostalgic chocolate shake! We don't do drive-through here, we do homemade chocolate milkshakes! This easy milkshake recipe is delicious and packs some protein from nut butter, cashews, and added collagen.
