Frequently Asked Questions

Is cacao suitable as a coffee alternative?

Yes — cacao is a gentle, nourishing alternative to coffee. While it contains a small amount of theobromine (a natural stimulant), it doesn’t spike cortisol or disrupt hormones like caffeine can.

Our blends are designed to provide sustained energy, focus, and mood support without the crash or jitters — making them ideal for anyone looking to reduce or replace coffee in their daily routine.

For more information on the benefits of cacao please visit our About Cacao page.

Are your products vegan-friendly?

Yes — all Better Bean Cacao blends are 100% vegan-friendly.

We use plant-based ingredients only, including pure Vanuatuan cacao, cacao butter, and functional botanicals. Even our creamy blends, like The Achiever, use coconut milk powder instead of dairy.

No animal products, no hidden additives — just delicious, nourishing cacao you can trust.

Do your blends contain any processed sugars?

No — we never use refined or processed sugars in our blends. We lightly sweeten some of our cacao with panela, a natural, unrefined cane sugar that retains its mineral content and offers a gentle sweetness without spiking blood sugar.

Can I drink cacao every day?

Yes, you can absolutely enjoy cacao every day!

Better Bean cacao is packed with natural compounds that can support your heart, mind, and mood. It’s rich in antioxidants and flavanols, which help improve circulation and support heart health.

It can help you feel more focused and uplifted, thanks to its gentle stimulants like theobromine and its ability to boost feel-good brain chemicals like serotonin and dopamine.

What's Inside

The organic botanicals and flavours that make The Achiever work

Black pepper
