Why LOCOCO?
Tastes like the real thing: Rich cocoa crafted with chefs and recognized by Food & Wine and Bon Appétit for its taste.
5g of sugar per serving: Sweet enough to feel like a treat. Light enough to have every day.
A gentle pick-me-up: Less than 10% of the caffeine in a cup of coffee — a second wind that won’t ruin bedtime.
Made for your ritual: Your coffee companion. Your après ritual. Stir a scoop into your morning brew, or make it your afternoon reset.
P.S. In case you’re wondering LOCOCO came from — LOCAL + COCOA — because we wanted to create a cocoa for, and inspired by, our friends who were local to Park City, UT. But it’s not LOCOCOA. It’s LOCOCO: LO-CO-CO.
How to make a cup
Add 1-2 tablespoons of LOCOCO® cocoa mix to 8 oz of hot water or your favorite milk.
Blend with a handheld frother or stir vigorously with a spoon until smooth + foamy.
Serve it hot in a mug or pour it over ice in a tall glass.
…or add a spoonful to your daily coffee for a boost of nutrition + dreamy flavor.

About Functional Mushrooms
Some functional mushrooms are adaptogenic — meaning they are believed to help the body and mind adapt to stress and maintain balance. In LOCOCO®, those are Cordyceps and Maitake. These substances may have a normalizing effect on bodily functions, helping support regulation of various systems.
The functional mushrooms found in LOCOCO® include:
+ Lion’s Mane: Potential cognitive benefits, such as supporting memory and focus.
+ Cordyceps: Linked to potential improvements in energy levels and exercise performance.
+ Maitake: Immune system support and anti-inflammatory properties.
What mushrooms are in LOCOCO?
Three: Lion’s Mane, Cordyceps, and Maitake. Every bag and sachet of Original Spice and Lux Vanilla has all three.
Why don’t I taste any mushroom?
Because our mushroom extracts are highly concentrated (8:1), it takes very little to get the equivalent of nearly 1 g of functional mushrooms into every cup. The flavors that lead are dark chocolate and the spices—cinnamon, ginger and cayenne in Original Spice and deep, sweet vanilla in Lux Vanilla.
Are they organic and tested?
Yes. All three functional mushrooms are certified organic. Every lot is tested for heavy metals and microbes, and for its active compounds: beta-glucans in Lion’s Mane (at least 15%) and Maitake (at least 8%), and cordycepin in Cordyceps.

What's in your cup
We obsessively craft our recipes with chefs for taste as well as purpose
- Richness
Cacao + dark cocoa blend
Single-source cacao meets European Dutch‑processed dark cocoa. It’s real cocoa, not a cocoa-flavored powder, which is why it holds up stirred into espresso.
- Flavor
Organic vanilla bean
The whole bean, ground so dark it’s nearly black. Not extract, not flavoring. It’s the warm, comforting note that gives a chocolate chip cookie its cookieness.
- Body
Organic coconut milk
It’s why LOCOCO is creamy without a drop of dairy, and why you can blend it with water alone and still enjoy it.
- Sweetness
Coconut sugar + monk fruit sweetener
Just a touch of caramel sweetness from organic coconut sugar, blended with monk fruit sweetener. 5g sugar per serving.
- Depth
Ancient sea salt
Unrefined salt mined from an ancient seabed in Utah. Salt is the unsung hero in every great recipe, calling forth every flavor to deepen.
- Vitality
Lion’s Mane, Maitake + Cordyceps
Three organic functional mushrooms, extracted from the fruiting body and concentrated 8:1. That’s the equivalent of nearly 1 g in every cup, and you won’t taste them.
Anna + Chef Romie Mangini Fisher
Why we made LOCOCO
We wanted a cocoa rich enough to feel like a treat and good enough to drink every day. Nothing on the shelf was both, so we made it ourselves in a Park City home kitchen, then crafted it with chefs until it was right.
Here's to good mornings—and even better afternoons and evenings,
