Cacao Adaptogen Powder is a private-label powder stick delivering Cacao, Lion's Mane Extract, Cordyceps Extract per serving. Additive-ready for your brand. Available for private label from MOQ 1,000 units.
A cacao-based ritual for three named extracts
Cacao Adaptogen Powder combines three named mushroom extracts, lion's mane, cordyceps and reishi, with cacao as the named base in the catalogue's listing text, delivered per sachet for mixing into a drink. A cacao-based mixed powder is a distinct ritual from a capsule or gummy mushroom blend: it reads as a beverage rather than a supplement dose, closer to a hot-drink format than a pill replacement. That detail is the kind of formulation fact a brand typically re-confirms during its own artwork and label review process. The distinction is worth carrying into any listing copy or pack description a brand drafts from this catalogue record.
All three named mushroom extracts also appear, individually or in different combinations, across the catalogue's Energy & Focus mushroom gummies, so the ingredient story here is a familiar one delivered through a different, drink-based format rather than a new formulation concept built from scratch. Any pack copy built from this record should stay anchored to what is actually confirmed rather than to the name alone. It is a small formulation detail, but one worth carrying through consistently into a brand's own product description and pack. A brand should rely on the confirmed record, not the product name alone, as the reference point for its own listing copy.
The beverage-ritual corner of the mushroom theme
Energy & Focus is the catalogue's range for brands building daily energy, focus and cognitive-support concepts, and a cacao-based adaptogen powder like this one occupies the beverage-ritual corner of that range, distinct from the chewable mushroom gummies that dominate the same theme elsewhere. That placement is a starting point for a brand's own range plan rather than a fixed shelf position dictated by the catalogue alone. Where a brand positions this SKU relative to its other listings is ultimately a range-planning decision made during order setup, not a fixed rule.
Mushroom Complex Gummies and Mushroom Blend Gummies both carry four or five named mushroom extracts in a chewable format, and Chaga Gummies is a single-extract chewable alternative, so a brand can choose this powder for the beverage ritual or any of the gummies for a chew-based version of a similar mushroom story. This positioning is a reasonable starting point rather than a fixed placement, and a brand can weight it differently once its own range takes shape. A brand's own catalogue plan, not this comparison alone, should decide exactly how the SKU sits alongside its neighbours on shelf.
Personalising and ordering this three-extract formula
Personalization covers approved flavour, colour and shape on this three-extract formula. Cacao itself carries a strong base flavour, so balancing that against the mushroom extracts is the practical flavour-development task for this SKU rather than a purely cosmetic choice. A brand should raise any pack-presentation preference at this stage rather than after artwork is already underway and harder to change. Artwork and packaging presentation are typically reviewed alongside flavour during the same personalisation step, rather than as a separate pass. These choices are usually confirmed early in order setup, well ahead of any production scheduling or carton artwork being sent to print.
Adding a fourth extract, changing the confirmed doses, or introducing a new cognitive-related claim moves the project into Formula Adaptation instead. Label claims plus market compliance remain the brand owner's responsibility throughout the ordering process. Any packaging preference sits alongside this same personalisation step, reviewed together before a sample run is confirmed. These decisions are typically locked before a sample is produced, rather than revisited afterward.

Frequently asked questions
Can I request a sample before ordering?
Ready-to-ship samples of selected production-ready formulas are on the Samples page while in stock — not every product has one. To test a different flavour, colour or shape, configure this product; where the product offers a Personalization Sample, you can order one of that exact configuration at the review step. Samples are paid upfront, and you do not need an account to start.What is the MOQ?
Minimum order quantities for Cacao Adaptogen Powder are set up front, not quoted: from 3,000 boxes in powder stick. Larger runs of the same formula stay Private Label, as a volume quote. A change to the formula itself is different: Formula Adaptation production starts from 60,000 sticks per SKU; the minimum is fixed for each format.What packaging is available?
Packaging for this format: Powder stick. Standard pack size for this product is 10 powder stick per pack. More options open up at higher volumes, and you pick your pack when you build your product.Can I customise flavour, colour or shape?
Yes — the flavour, colour and existing shape options this format supports are choices you make when you build your product, at the same unit price and with no setup fee. Where the product offers a Personalization Sample, you can test them first. The formula stays the same. Changing the actives or the dosage means Formula Adaptation instead, which starts higher; claims work is a Custom Project.Who produces and supplies this product?

Independent lab testing is available on request.How long does production take?
