Holy Cacao

   

From their website, “We’ve been Nationally Recognized for our hot chocolate and frozen hot chocolate. Try either one and you’ll see why! First, we melt gluten free, peanut free, non-GMO, all natural chocolate into heavy dairy creams. That gets you one rich cup of hot drinking chocolate. Imagine it with a shot of peppermint or spicy Mexican syrup. For her frozen counterpart, we then blend it with chocolate ice cream.”

I therefore had to give Holy Cacao a try, especially since it’s located in the same trailer park (at 1311 S. 1st Street) as one of my favorite food trucks, Torchy’s Tacos.

I tried both their Frozen Hot Chocolate and their Cake Balls…

These were their Wedding Balls (Sinfully sweet white wedding cake lovingly rolled in vanilla buttercream frosting and veiled with white sprinkles.)
The Frozen Hot Chocolate was good, but for me not any better than a good chocolate milkshake.  My other daughter though loves Holy Cacao’s frozen hot chocolate.  The cake balls were good too, but again I prefer a good cupcake.  But taking my daughter’s opinion into account, our rating for Holy Cacao would be 4 stars, the same as what Yelp reviewers rated it.  Trip Advisor reviewers gave it a slightly better rating of 4 1/2, plus they ranked Holy Cacao #17 in Austin for dessert.
