What others are saying:
'The cacao play day was my inner child's dream come true - spending all day circled with amazing women bathing in Irma's warmth and wisdom, tasting cacao in every form possible (including the most delicious cacao baking of my life) with so much authentic sharing, love and laughter, learning more about the origins and the industry, how to ask the right questions so I can feel in alignment when purchasing both cacao and chocolate and breaking through all the stigmas of doing things right or wrong with this sacred plant. I reached a whole new level of deep connection with the spirit of cacao and that is going to ripple forward and change my timeline to that is more heart-centred and full of pleasure! So grateful to Irma for her passion, authenticity and love - she is such an inspiring and heart-centred wahine doing incredible mahi.’ - Emily, Auckland
‘A Mamamuti Cacao Play Class is an experience unlike any other! Aside from the immeasurable amounts of laughter & joy we shared, we expanded our knowledge & gained a whole new perspective on cacao as a commodity & as a superfood for healing & overall enjoyment. From its rich history, cultural impact, how it’s processed, & the infinite ways in which it can be used, my respect & awareness for cacao has grown, as has my use of it now that I am incorporating it more into my everyday life.’ - Maryam, Auckland
‘From our beautiful welcoming at the door I felt like I had stepped into a different world. Seeing the big platter of cacao delights made my little girl feel so happy, which is why I was here. It was my birthday and really felt into my body and how did I want to celebrate it. And I wanted to play, to laugh, to meet with women in circle and to share stories. All this fills my cup. Irma holds such amazing Sacred space, a space where we all felt safe to share what was on our heart. I loved hearing all about the process of creating cacao paste as we know it and when we peeled the beans after them being roasted (and filling the room with the most delicious aroma) it felt like something these hands had done before with these women. I so so so so loved the whole day. So much deliciousness, creativity, fun, wisdom sharing and eating food created with love. How can you top a day like this?’ - Lesley, Auckland
