About who offers Râ cacao...

Clarâ Tournet, Founder & Alchemist of Râ cacao

Hey you! My name is Clara, I'm so happy to meet you.

 

I'm French and live in the Netherlands in a beautiful eco-place, building my sustainable paradise.

I've enjoyed making ceremonial cacao and sharing it with friends for about two years, and I've decided to spread it even more in early 2023.

Let me tell you where this comes from...

 

I have always been interested in earth and life sciences, humanitarian actions, health, always looking for the alternative (I mean... the natural in fact). So I decided to study agro-development engineering specializing in food product development and nutrition. I learned about many cultures through my studies!

For my thesis, I went to Costa Rica to work on an exploratory study on food experiences, perceptions, behaviors and the role of cacao. My goal was to interview many cacao farmers households on this topic, providing content for larger projects regarding community development and the creation of cacao origin labels. I just fell in love with cacao! Our interviews have become real workshops for transmitting knowledge on the riches of cacao and their artisanal preparation. 

 

Throughout my studies, I was able to discover it thanks to many teachers : farmers, indigenous communities, scientists, healers... and I decided to follow training as a cacao practitioner afterwards.

 

I am amazed by the beauty of this tree and its fruits. What ancient wisdom! Which I would like to pass on to you so that she can help you open a door to your needs and desires of the moment.
