Cacao Powder

Not all Cacao is created the same... 

Like wine, each region and harvest has its own flavour characteristics and quality. This is especially true for raw cacao (produced without roasting) which wears its flavour notes very much on its sleeve. 

At Little Bird, we have literally spent years hunting the globe for the best organic raw cacao. From Indonesia to Africa, from the foothills of the Andes to the Amazon. This is the result of that search - what we believe to be the finest quality Cacao available in New Zealand - and of course it is truly raw, organic and fair-trade too. 

Raw Cacao is an amazing superfood - with minerals like magnesium and iron, plus it contains one of the highest concentrations of antioxidants of any food in the world! Our Cacao is sun-dried and not heated above 46 deg C during processing, ensuring the antioxidant levels are maintained.

Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT CLEANSE IS RIGHT FOR ME?

This depends on your unique health and fitness goals.

For beginners and those with an active lifestyle we recommend our Active Lifestyle Cleanse, designed for those who are new to cleansing or who have a strenuous exercise schedule or physically demanding job, thereby needing a little more sustenance to get them through the day.

For seasoned cleansers, or those on an intermittent fasting lifestyle, we recommend our Advanced Fasting Cleanse. This is our most challenging cleanse as it is under 800 calories. Designed to maximise fat burning and boost vitality.

For those beginning a weight loss journey, or wishing to simply reset their digestion or kick unhealthy habits, we recommend one of our signature cleanses.

If you have unique goals you'd like to meet, feel free to get in touch and we can help you design a custom cleanse.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I DO A CLEANSE?

Ideally, we'd do a cleanse one or two days per week — it’s the perfect way to reset the body. Some find juice cleansing can also train your mind and body to make healthier decisions moving forward. But if this isn't possible, we'd recommend each season.

However, if you're coming out of a heavily indulgent holiday or season, you may feel that a total reset is required. In this case, a three or five-day cleanse is the best way to reset your body and healthy eating habits.

If you are wanting to address specific health concerns, engaging with a holistic practitioner would be a worthwhile investment.

HOW SHOULD I PREPARE FOR MY CLEANSE?

To maximise the benefits of your cleanse, we recommend taking a break from coffee, alcohol and heavily processed foods both during your cleanse and 48 hours before commencing.

Staying hydrated is vital — before, during and after your cleanse. If you struggle to drink water throughout the day, add fresh lemon juice. Healthy hydration also includes water-rich plants. We recommend cucumber, lettuce, celery, bok choy, zucchini, watercress and low sugar fruits like berries, green apples and kiwifruit.

DO I HAVE TO DRINK MY JUICES IN ORDER?

Our recommended order is suggestive for those who prefer guidance. Listen to your body and do what feels and works best for you. We recommend consuming them at two-hourly intervals throughout the day.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I GET HUNGRY?

Our cleanses are not an exercise in deprivation. If you are feeling ravenous at any point, we recommend reaching for water-rich vegetables like cucumber, lettuce, celery, bok choy, zucchini, watercress and low sugar fruits like berries, green apples and kiwifruit.

CAN I CLEANSE WHILE PREGNANT OR BREASTFEEDING?

Our Little Bird cold pressed juices and activated nut milks are a great addition to your diet while pregnant or breastfeeding as they contain a high concentration of organic fruits and vegetables, making them a potent source of key nutrients - they're also a great quick, easy one-handed snack for a boost of energy. 

However, while pregnant or breastfeeding, we do not recommend consuming them on their own, as reducing calories too much may effect your milk production. 

Instead, we recommend supplementing your diet with our juices and milks as a way to boost your nutrition and energy - we have also had many customer swear that our Little Bird juice & milk boxes have helped boost their milk supply! 

ARE THERE ADJACENT THERAPIES TO COMPLIMENT MY CLEANSE?

Sure! If you can provide your body with additional healing therapies such as yoga, meditation, hot stone sessions, saunas, massage and so on can also help reset your body and mind — these are all healing and powerful. Naturopathic consultations are also a wonderful opportunity to discuss your health and wellness goals providing additional support to your cleanse regime. We have a list of Little Bird preferred practitioners across most disciplines. Contact us for further information if required.

What our clients say

"An essential in my wellness routine for the past 6 years. Not only do they leave you feeling amazing, but the post cleanse glow is real and they taste delicious too. I love how easy they are to incorporate into my work week as they arrive fresh every evening, so I can rush out the door in the morning with my juices in hand!"

- LAURA HADLOW

"I’m obsessed with the Little Bird cleanse and do it several times a year to reset. It’s the perfect way to recorrect the balance; the mental clarity I gain from it is immense. For this reason, I also do it if a stressful time is coming up in work or life. Energy and a sharp mind are a guaranteed result and means I’m more likely to deal with stress in a healthier manner, rather than living on coffee and adrenaline."

- REBECCA WADEY

"The Little Bird Cleanse has been the reset I needed to kickstart a healthier me! After 5 days I feel less bloated & inflamed, my skin is glowing, my eyes brighter and my headspace much clearer. My entire energy has shifted from sluggish winter blues, to feeling energised and ready for summer!"
