Virgin vs Serendipity vs Buttons, here’s how they compare

We often get asked:

“What’s the difference between your ceremonial cacao options?”

So if you’ve landed here wondering which ceremonial cacao is right for you, this guide will help.

Whether you're just beginning your cacao journey or deep in your ritual practice, here’s how our three ceremonial cacao options compare: Virgin Ceremonial Cacao, Serendipity Ceremonial Cacao, and Ceremonial Cacao Buttons.

Virgin Ceremonial Cacao

Deep. Rich. Grounding.

Our original ceremonial cacao, and still a community favourite.

Made from Peruvian Criollo beans and offers a deep, earthy, and grounding flavour. It comes in block or chunk form and is as close to traditional cacao paste as it gets.

“I love its rich taste, it makes me feel so well, grounded and happy.” - Inge

“This is the best cacao I’ve ever tasted. Truly heart-opening.” - Rory

Good for:

  • Daily rituals
  • Inner work, solo ceremony, stillness
  • Those seeking a strong energetic presence

Serendipity Ceremonial Cacao

Feminine. Gentle. Uplifting.

Serendipity is lighter, creamier and gently heart-opening. Many describe its energy as soft, nurturing and emotional, a slightly sweeter and more mellow flavour than Virgin.

“Feels like warm feminine care… a softer experience.” - Milos

“My go-to for creativity and connection. Divine!” - Jen

Good for:

  • First-time cacao drinkers
  • Retreats, gentle circles, group connection
  • Creative or emotional practices

Can I mix them?

While most people will usually drink a single type of ceremonial cacao at a time, there's nothing to stop you creating your own blends. Our customers regularly blend Virgin and Serendipity to combine the depth of Virgin with Serendipity’s lighter touch.

What they all have in common

  • Ceremonial-grade quality: All three are pure, ethically sourced cacao - no fillers, no sweeteners, nothing added.

  • Deeply nourishing: Whether you’re drinking for ritual, wellbeing or connection, each offers a heart-opening, body-soothing experience.

  • Versatile preparation: All can be enjoyed straight or blended with your favourite mylk, spices or superfoods.

  • Loved by our community: Each has its fans and none are “lesser” than the others. It really comes down to your personal taste and intention.

Still not sure?

If in doubt, try them all to find your favourite!

If you're new here, you can always opt for our Ceremonial Cacao Taster Pack which includes both Virgin and Serendipity, so you can try them side-by-side and see what resonates most.

And as always, if you’re unsure, we’re happy to help. Just drop us a message or post a comment below.
