Earthshine.co.za products are divine -- to die for if I were ready to go into the Light :) I love their cacao powder from East Africa (from heirloom organic Tanzanian beans). The cacao beans are regularly tested and show cadmium concentrations are well below the strict safety limits set by the European Union -- no more than you'd expect from any natural soil -- whereas the cacao powders from South America are highly likely to contain the toxic cadmium metal which accumulates in your kidneys and liver. I also LOVE their Vegan Droëstokkies (wors). Earthshine is unique in their products, they make them all in-house -- a paradise for lovers of all things vegan and plant-strong. ~~Val Archer of GreenSmoothie.com.

i was so impressed by the package i received by Earthshine. there was a hand-written note inside, the raw cacao slabs i ordered are top-notch, and i was also gifted a couple of free samples.
in this world that can feel cold and sterile, the human touch makes all the difference.
thank you, Earthshine. God-willing, i'll be ordering from you again. :)

**Fantastic Product & Exceptional Service**

What a great experience with Earthshine! My order arrived very quickly, beautifully packaged, and the communication and friendly follow-up service were excellent.

What really impressed me was the attention to detail. I only ordered one item — the Camu Camu Powder — yet they included a complimentary vegan cacao cookie made with fine African cacao, sprouted seeds and nuts. It was vegan, activated and gluten-free, and honestly tasted fantastic. Such a thoughtful and unexpected extra!

I also loved the packaging, the brochures and the overall presentation. You can feel that there is a lot of care behind both the products and the company.

Definitely five stars from me. Great products, great service and a company I’m very happy to support. I hope to see much more from Earthshine in the future!

Excellent Maca Powder – Great Quality!
My son has been using Earthshine Maca Powder and we’ve been really impressed. He feels more energetic, has a noticeably better mood and feels physically stronger. It’s been a wonderful addition to his daily routine.
I also love the thoughtful presentation from Earthshine—the packages are beautifully gift-wrapped and the free sample snacks are such a lovely bonus! Excellent product and service.

REAL chocolate, PURE snacks, and all made NATURALLY! So yummy. Our favourite is the 70% 500 gram chocolate bar - makes the most delicious hot chocolate, and can also be used in bakes and treats. We made chocolate mousse just yesterday 😍
