Healthy Recess Snacks: Milky Chocolate vs. Pure Cocoa

Dear Friend,

Hello again! I'm always thinking of ways to help you keep your family healthy and happy. Today, I want to share why our delicious Mazorquitas make the perfect school snack—and how they compare to typical chocolate treats.

Why María Cacao’s Mazorquitas Belong in Your Child’s Lunchbox

Our Mazorquitas aren’t just tasty—they’re packed with nutrients to support your child’s growth and development. Unlike commercial chocolates, they’re made with pure cacao and natural ingredients, free from artificial additives.

Sustained Energy

Mazorquitas provide long-lasting energy to keep kids active and focused all day. Natural cacao contains theobromine, which offers steady fuel without the sugar crashes of processed chocolates.

Nutritional Benefits

Cacao is rich in:
 Antioxidants for immune support
 Magnesium & iron for physical and mental development
 Mood-boosting compounds like phenylethylamine

Commercial Chocolate vs. Pure Cacao: A Quick Comparison

Typical Chocolate Snacks
✖ Loaded with refined sugar
✖ Often contain unhealthy fats/additives
✖ Short energy spike followed by crashes

María Cacao’s Mazorquitas
✓ Sweetened naturally (low sugar)
✓ Healthy fats from pure cacao
 No artificial ingredients
✓ Sustained energy + nutrients

How Nutritious Snacks Boost School Performance

  1. Better Focus
    Cacao’s brain-supporting nutrients enhance concentration and memory.

  2. Emotional Balance
    Natural compounds reduce stress and promote calmness.

  3. Healthy Growth
    Essential minerals (like iron and magnesium) support strong bones and muscles.

Try swapping their usual snack for Mazorquitas—you might notice happier, more energized kids!

With love and gratitude,
María
