Indigenous Name: Xau (Maya), Cacau (Yucatán), Caco (Pocomchí) Kicou, kikob (Pocomchi) Cu-culat (Salamá) Pacxoc (Huehuetenango) Botanic Name: Theobroma cacao (given by Carl Linnaeus, which in Latin means “Food of the Gods”.) Uses: Its main use today is to make chocolate. The Ancient Maya used the seeds as currency, which means there was a time when money actually DID grow on trees. Historically 2,500 years ago in the Maya lowlands, the Maya were making a chocolate drink from cacao. In the beginning of the 17th Century, a delegation of Quechi Maya nobles from Alta Verapaz, Guatemala, introduced the cacao drink to the Spanish court. Chocolate was actually the first drink of the Europeans, BEFORE coffee or tea were introduced! Chocolate remained an elite drink, too expensive for the average person to enjoy, and often, even forbidden. Until- a Dutchman, (Mr. Van Houten,) invented a way of making the drink into a solid. The first candy bar! Chocolate became "big business" and the cultivation of the cacao tree was spread all across the globe. ## Features - Ethically and sustainably produced according to the days of the Mayan Calendar. From the foothills of the Chuatroj Mountains in Guatemala~ Our cacao comes from one farm. One self-sustainable, organic, eco-friendly place. We know who picks it. We tend to it as it ferments, and is carefully laid out to dry. Respecting the process of growth and cultivation, and the inherent magic of cacao. ## Images ![Junajpu - Mayan Cacao Powder - Stone Ground (1 Lb) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61oo7UO7qfL.jpg) ![Junajpu - Mayan Cacao Powder - Stone Ground (1 Lb) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61r1T2HkbtL.jpg) ![Junajpu - Mayan Cacao Powder - Stone Ground (1 Lb) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61+4B52DQ9L.jpg) ![Junajpu - Mayan Cacao Powder - Stone Ground (1 Lb) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81pxuHyYmLL.jpg) ![Junajpu - Mayan Cacao Powder - Stone Ground (1 Lb) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81vJ0cFND2L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars Quite disappointed w/this cocoa *by L***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2016* Quite disappointed w/this cocoa. Too sweet for my taste & after reading how bitter thus was w/ notes of cinnamon I certainly didn't find that to be true and I do have a well developed palate. I will not buy again. However if you like sweeter chocolate this product is for you; it is just far too expensive when it appears to just be hot cocoa & not really so special at all.not what I was looking for ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Five Stars *by S***Q on Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2016* Excellent for a cold evening...chocolaty, spicy...a perfect blend --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/18047866-junajpu-mayan-cacao-powder-stone-ground-1-lb](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/18047866-junajpu-mayan-cacao-powder-stone-ground-1-lb) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-11-04*
