Adoration for cacao can be traced back to ancient cultures in Mesoamerica. Bitter beverages made from the crushed seeds of this voluptuous fruit were enjoyed with a belief that these pods had magical properties. Mildly stimulating with a pronounced twinkle of euphoria, cacao was reserved for sacred rituals and royalty.

With our obsession over herbal baths and natural body care products, we couldn't be more thrilled to share the recipe for this decadent chocolate-infused body scrub! This scrub is a favorite from our own Irene Wolansky. It smells scrumptious and exfoliates the skin, making it soft and smooth. It will leave a faint perfume of chocolate and vanilla that's sweet, earthy, and wonderfully provocative.
