Tonantzin is the Aztec word for Sacred Mother Earth
Our passion is to create a chocolate experience that embodies the rich and sacred origins of cacao from the ancient cultures of Mexico, while using amazingly healthy ingredients that give vitality, and energy. Our handcrafted recipes reflect the use of a spectrum of ancient super foods, enhancing the message that food can be sacred, and chocola
te can be good for you! We believe our own health and vitality is deeply intertwined with our connection to nature and the web of life we exist within. Our ancestors learned to live in harmony with the Earth, and in replicated her beauty in the way they lived their lives. Each of us may learn to integrate with her love and give true respect because she is what gives us the all our sustenance. Our Earth is what gave us this body we possess and that we must learn to care of it and her. Today more than ever it is essential to recover the connection to Mother Earth and understand that it is a living being that feels, thinks and is aware, realizing that he has a heart that beats to the rhythm of our own. We must recover the memory to realize that we are the mind of the planet and that if we deplete and destroy her, we deplete and destroy ourselves. Loving ourselves and creating a beautiful life and the loving the Earth are intimately connected, and with these chocolates we seek to assist in that, with the ancient appreciation for this sacred cacao, which has always recognised as a gift from Quetzalcoatl the serpent of light and wisdom.
