Why use the Molinillo set in the preparation of your ceremonial cacao?

1. Spiritual & cultural connection

I personally found it so unique to prepare my ceremonial cacao with the Molinillo, because it gives me an understanding and feeling of how the Mayan people have prepared their cacao for thousands of years in sacred rituals 🤎

It thus creates a connection to the cacao, because it is like going back to the roots of her embrace by the Mayan people.

2. Texture & the beautiful rainbow bubbles

Ceremonial cacao has always been admired for the beautiful rainbow bubbles that can appear on top after preparation.

Cacao is therefore referred to as "rainbow medicine", because many peoples believed that the medicine, the wisdom of the plant, resided in the bubbles.

Therefore, the intention of using the Molinillo set is to prepare a beautiful cup of ceremonial cacao that has these healing bubbles for the soul.

In addition, the texture also gives a lovely mouthfeel and enjoyment that provides a sense of wholeness 🤎

3. Add love to your drink & thus the gift to Mother Earth

By using the Molinillo set, you will manually create your ceremonial cacao with love or another beautiful intention.

The Mayans consider this a beautiful gift to Mother Earth, as everything will later be given to her in their ceremonies.

Let it also be an invitation to you, so that you simultaneously thank Mother Earth for this gift in the form of ceremonial cacao.

The Mayans also believe that preparing ceremonial cacao is best without the use of metals (pots, blenders, metal whisks, etc.).

Use & cleaning

• Be careful to use a large enough pot or cup and start slowly after adding cacao & liquid
• If the cup or pot is not large enough, you will most likely spill
• Take your Molinillo between both hands on each side and roll, while creating movement and thereby bubbles, foam and love for your cacao
• If you have made your cacao with a very thick consistency, the bubbles may be harder to make appear. You can therefore add extra liquid.

Remember to clean after use. Hot water is enough.

Let it dry before putting it back in the drawer, as they can otherwise develop mold due to moisture 🥰

Please note that the size may vary slightly from what you see in the picture, as it is made of wood and handmade.
