A Story of Thoughtful Nutrition at Brookside Academy
Walking into Brookside Academy, you feel an instant warmth. The school is full of life—students laughing, greeting visitors with bright smiles, and moving with energy. The neat classrooms, clean environment, and friendly staff show how much they care for their students. It’s more than a school—it’s a place where young minds and bodies grow.
A few weeks ago, we received an inquiry from Brookside Academy in Kimara Suka, Dar es Salaam. Gadi, a school representative, asked about our 100% natural Tanzania Cocoa Powder. During our conversation, we discussed the difference between Munny Chocolate’s natural cocoa powder and the Dutch-processed versions found in supermarkets.
Brookside Academy is committed to student well-being. They always look for ways to improve nutrition. When they learned about the benefits of natural cocoa powder, they arranged a product trial the next day.
Putting Children’s Well-being First
The school noticed some young students (baby class) weren’t drinking much tea. They wanted a healthier and tastier option to keep the children energized and happy. Instead of ignoring the issue, they searched for a better solution. Their commitment to student care was clear—they wanted every child to enjoy a warm, nourishing drink.
By mixing it with milk, they could craft a delicious, hot chocolate-like drink packed with health benefits.
Why Cocoa Powder is Great for Kids

Our 100% natural Tanzania cocoa powder is rich in nutrients that support children’s growth and development. Unlike Dutch-processed cocoa, our natural version keeps all its antioxidants, fiber, and minerals, making it a great choice for both body and mind. Key benefits include:
- Boosts Immunity – High in antioxidants to support overall health.
- Provides Natural Energy – No artificial sugars or additives, just pure energy.
- Enhances Focus and Learning – Supports cognitive function and memory.
- Aids Digestion – High in fiber for a healthy gut.
- Promotes Emotional Well-being – Contains natural compounds that reduce stress.
- Strengthens Bones – Works with milk to boost calcium intake.
A Small Change with a Big Impact
After introducing our cocoa powder, feedback was amazing. The children loved the drink, and more importantly, they finished their cups and even added extra.
Brookside Academy’s efforts show their deep care for students. They go beyond education to support overall well-being. Their story proves that small, thoughtful changes can make a big difference in children’s health, learning, and happiness.
At Munny Chocolate, this story reminds us why we do what we do. It’s not just about selling cocoa powder—it’s about helping people make better choices for a healthier future.
Brookside Academy’s experience is worth sharing. It’s a great example for schools, parents, and caregivers who believe in the power of good nutrition for both body and mind.
