Enjoy Loco Love
Chocolate that nourishes as much as it satisfies. Loco Love crafts artisan chocolate infused with adaptogens, medicinal mushrooms, and superfoods - turning an everyday indulgence into something genuinely good for you. At Wholefood Merchants, we carry a wide selection of this Australian brand's range so you can find flavours and formulas that match your mood, your goals, and your tastebuds. Indulgence with intention.
What Makes Loco Love Special?
Loco Love takes premium cacao and pairs it with functional ingredients that most chocolate brands would never consider. Medicinal mushrooms like reishi and lion's mane. Adaptogens like ashwagandha and maca. Superfoods like lucuma and mesquite. Every block and bar is designed to deliver flavour and function in equal measure.
The brand is Australian-made, organic, and crafted in small batches. The cacao is ethically sourced and the recipes are developed with input from herbalists and nutritionists. This is not gimmick chocolate - it is thoughtful formulation wrapped in a genuinely delicious product.
Choose Your Loco Love
With 41 products to explore, there is something for every palate and purpose.
By Flavour Profile
Think rich dark cacao, creamy caramel blends, berry infusions, and warming spice combinations. Some are intensely chocolatey. Others lean sweeter or nuttier. Start with what appeals to your tastebuds and branch out from there.
By Function
Each product features specific functional ingredients. Looking for calm? Reach for reishi-infused options. Need focus? Lion's mane formulas are your pick. Want an energy boost without caffeine? Maca and cacao combinations deliver a smooth lift.
By Format
Choose from bars, blocks, and gift boxes. Bars are perfect for on-the-go snacking. Blocks suit sharing or breaking up over the week. Gift boxes make stunning presents for anyone who appreciates premium chocolate.
Before You Dive In
Loco Love chocolate is rich and satisfying - a few squares go a long way. Let each piece melt slowly on the tongue rather than chewing quickly. This allows the cacao and adaptogens to absorb properly and lets you enjoy the full flavour profile. Store in a cool, dry place (not the fridge unless it is very warm) to maintain texture and snap.
Pairing and Serving Ideas
Artisan chocolate deserves a little thought. These combinations bring out the best in every piece.
With Coffee
A square of dark Loco Love alongside your morning long black creates a rich, layered flavour experience. The bitterness of good cacao and quality coffee complement each other beautifully.
With Wine or Spirits
Dark chocolate pairs well with red wine, especially shiraz or pinot noir. For something different, try alongside a small glass of whisky or aged rum. The warmth of the spirit opens up the chocolate's deeper flavour notes.
On a Grazing Board
Break bars into irregular pieces and scatter across a cheese and fruit board. The contrast of chocolate with dried figs, nuts, and sharp cheese elevates any gathering.
As Dessert
Melt a few squares over low heat and drizzle over berries, ice cream, or banana. A simple dessert that looks impressive and takes under five minutes.
Common Questions
Do the mushrooms and adaptogens change the taste?
Not noticeably. The cacao and complementary flavours remain dominant. Functional ingredients blend into the background - you taste chocolate first and foremost.
How much should I eat per day?
Two to four squares is a good daily serve. Enough to enjoy the functional benefits and satisfy your chocolate craving without overdoing it. Listen to your body and adjust.
Is this suitable for kids?
The chocolate is made with quality organic ingredients and is generally fine for older children in moderation. Some formulas contain adaptogenic herbs, so use your judgement and start small.
Match Your Chocolate to Your Mood
The beauty of functional chocolate is that different formulas serve different moments. Let how you feel guide what you reach for.
When You Need Focus
Lion's mane-infused chocolate supports clarity and concentration. Have a square mid-morning when you need to lock in on deep work. Pair with a cup of green tea and you have a calm, focused hour ahead.
When You Need Comfort
Reishi blends are known for their calming properties. A piece after dinner with herbal tea creates a gentle wind-down ritual. Let it melt slowly and enjoy the moment.
When You Need Energy
Maca and raw cacao deliver a natural lift without jitters. Reach for these before a workout, a big afternoon, or any time you need a boost that does not involve another coffee.
When You Are Celebrating
Gift boxes and premium flavours turn any occasion into something special. Share across the table, pair with drinks, and enjoy the kind of chocolate that sparks conversation.

Simple Tips for Best Results
Let chocolate reach room temperature before eating for the best flavour and snap. Store away from strong odours as cacao absorbs surrounding scents.

Start with a flavour profile you already enjoy and branch out from there.
