THE CHOCOLATE<br />
FACTORY<br />
The cacao bean has an incredible history. Chocolate<br />
is from The New World: the north-western jungles<br />
and river basins of Ecuador, the western Amazon<br />
Basin and the Orinoco River Basin of Venezuela.<br />
Chocolate was always revered as the number one food<br />
in those regions throughout all history. It was the best<br />
delivery system, the best food, the most nutritious food”<br />
Text Katrine Sekjær<br />
Where else would one find Mr. David Avocado Wolfe but in his very own<br />
chocolate factory? His great passion is cocoa – or, as he pronounces it the<br />
Mayan way, cacao. Of course, he was familiar with cacao, in the same way as<br />
the rest of us: a comforting beverage you enjoy especially as a kid and occasionally<br />
as a grown-up; a sweet drink, that brings you ease and coziness,<br />
soothing for your senses and conducive to your well-being. However, David<br />
had an experience that would change his life; a ‘Eureka!’ moment. The<br />
‘Cacao Gods’ opened not just his eyes, but all of his senses and imagination.<br />
“I was in Maui, and it was probably back in 2001, I was with my friends,<br />
Ethan and Eli, and we’re peeling cacao beans for smoothies. One of them<br />
asked, ‘Hey, have you ever just eaten one?’ We really knew nothing about<br />
it at that time – but I just peeled one and ate it. And that was when it all<br />
happened… in that moment,” David remembers. He had an epiphany! A<br />
moment where the soul of cocoa its history, the fruit, the taste and all the<br />
religious connotation conquered him, that he realized that he had to spend<br />
his life working with this magical plant. “The flavor and the overall density<br />
of the nutrition and just the chocolate essence, which is in a cacao<br />
bean, struck me so intensely, that I was a changed person. I was never the<br />
same after that. Eventually, I got my own cacao farm in Hawaii and then<br />
my own chocolate factory.”<br />

“The mineral content in chocolate is absolutely<br />
amazing. It is the most nutrient dense nut<br />
eaten by human beings on a regular basis.<br />
It is the best natural source in plants of iron,<br />
manganese and it is extremely rich in copper<br />
and zinc. What is also interesting about<br />
chocolate is that it is really high in phosphorus<br />
and magnesium, which is very unusual.<br />
That would indicate, that cacao is good for<br />
bone density, bone strength, and teeth.”<br />

Raw chocolate made with Organic Virgin Cacao. Includes Resveratrol and<br />
Grape Seed Polyphenol. A Fountain of Youth by David Avocado Wolfe.<br />
Columbus, Cocoa, and Currency<br />
The first cacao bean David tasted had been dried,<br />
so it was not in its ‘fruit-state.’ Eating a raw cacao<br />
bean was an even more overwhelming experience.<br />
He illuminates: “It was a revelation of the richness,<br />
the incredible history of this plant and this food,<br />
it was all of that; the flavor, the history, the legend,<br />
the chemistry – everything about it hit me at once.<br />
And I knew at that moment, that I had signed on<br />
with the Cacao Gods.” It is not just the taste or the<br />
many nutrients in the cocoa bean that fascinates<br />
him, even though cocoa as a super-food is a whole<br />
chapter itself the plant has this magical aura and<br />
an enchanting chronicle which goes way back.<br />
“The cacao bean has an incredible history.<br />
Chocolate is from The New World: the northwestern<br />
jungles and river basins of Ecuador, the<br />
western Amazon Basin and the Orinoco River<br />
Basin of Venezuela. Chocolate was always<br />
revered as the number one food in those regions<br />
throughout all history. It was the best delivery<br />
system, the best food, the most nutritious food,”<br />
says the expert.<br />
He continues to describe how cocoa was not<br />
only a crop, it was also a currency: “That is<br />
actually why even today you will see little coins<br />
made of chocolate. That’s a reference that goes<br />
back to the days when the cacao bean was<br />
money.” To illustrate his point, David shares<br />
an anecdote of Christopher Columbus watching<br />
as a ship of cacao beans sail by: “They dropped<br />
a few cacao beans, and these guys on the boat<br />
jumped off for it. Christopher Columbus thought<br />
it was almonds, so he thought ‘Wow, these people<br />
love almonds!’ But in fact, it was cacao. It was<br />
highly traded, utilized and sacred food; it<br />
reached very high prominence of use in Mexico,<br />
basically through the Mayans, the Incas and the<br />
Aztecs that brought it from the jungle into the<br />
civilization as food.”<br />
Mothers Milk and the Feeling of Being in Love<br />
But why do we have this extremely positive<br />
association with cocoa? Some people do not like<br />
coffee, some do not like tea – but most people<br />
love cocoa. Cocoa has been compared to Mothers’<br />
Milk because it has some of the same qualities;<br />
it is a warm, nutritious and comforting. Is that<br />
why we love it? “One of the things that endear<br />
us to chocolate is that it is a comfort food. It is<br />
something which we remember from our first<br />
memories as children. It has a connotation of<br />
happiness and joy,” David says.<br />
He spoke more in depth about the exact influences<br />
cocoa has on us: “There is definitely an<br />
interesting chemistry going on. Cacao beans are<br />
rich in PEA and related compounds, that are<br />
anti-depressives, but they are also associated<br />
with feelings of being in love.” The cocoa<br />
connoisseur could talk for hours about all the<br />
benefits of cocoa and chocolate. It is truly quite<br />
advanced, how chocolate can affect us both<br />
physically and psychologically. It makes sense that<br />
your wise body would reach for dark chocolate<br />
or hot cocoa when you need a boost: “We find<br />
compounds like tryptophan, serotonin, and<br />
dopamine are found in chocolate– and that is<br />
probably some of the most important aspects of<br />
its psycho-active effects. Chocolates have an<br />
effect on us that is quite different from eating<br />
another piece of fruit,” adds David.<br />
Did you know that the digestion-friendly soluble<br />
fiber and mineral content in chocolate are also<br />
considerably high? Cacao, when crush and blended<br />
in hot water, will almost completely break down<br />
into a “very good and friendly fiber” states David.<br />
Moreover, as one of the top 15 foods eaten in<br />
the world, chocolate has the highest antioxidant<br />
content. “So, it is the best source of antioxidants<br />
for most people, which is really an amazing<br />
discovery,” David concludes laughingly.<br />
The Cacao Ceremony<br />
In ancient times, chocolate was always consumed<br />
as a drink, hot chocolate came thousands<br />
of years before the chocolate bar. Mr. Wolfe<br />
revealed that cocoa was used for rituals, for<br />
marriages, dowries, and vows as part of Native<br />
American life all the places where the cacao<br />
bean grew.<br />
“Even though we do not sacrifice to the gods<br />
when we drink cocoa, we often associate making<br />
and drinking cocoa with a ritual: Making hot<br />
chocolate for birthdays, warm cocoa for winter<br />
holidays and special occasions where we want<br />
to enjoy a moment,” comments David.<br />
“One of the things that we revived all across<br />
the world is what we call The Cacao Ceremony.<br />
Essentially everyone gets together, and we do<br />
a blessing with cacao as the main offering or<br />
sacrament. Usually, it happens before a party<br />
or dance – it is just an amazing thing,”<br />
pronounces David, who along other cocoa<br />
enthusiasts have created this new way to<br />
celebrate the miraculous cocoa bean. “I was<br />
at a cacao ceremony in Reykjavik recently,”<br />
David fondly recalls. “It was wonderful. It is<br />
a great way to celebrate life!”<br />

D r SMOOD<br />
Dr. Etti and her daughter Zoe<br />
WHITE HAWAJ<br />
IS THE NEW BLACK!<br />
White coffee blended with the most delightful spices is not just delicious<br />
– it is a healthy boost for your body and mind. Think this is some new concoction?<br />
Think again. Dr. Etti explains the story behind the ancient beverage,<br />
Hawaj White Coffee.<br />
Text Katrine Sekjær<br />
When the founder of Dr Smood, Rene<br />
Sindlev, called Dr. Etti to tell her about<br />
the “most fantastic coffee he had just<br />
experienced,” to his surprise, she knew<br />
exactly what he was talking about; the<br />
ancient Yemenite coffee brew, Hawaj.<br />
“My mother was born in Syria, and I<br />
grew up having friends and family from<br />
Yemen. Tasting hawaj coffee brings me<br />
back home, and I feel warm and cozy all<br />
over,” she reminisced, before explaining<br />
all about hawaj and white coffee.<br />
So, what is hawaj? “Hawaij means mixture<br />
in Arabic” reveals Dr. Etti, and<br />
connects to the five-thousand-yearold<br />
tradition of Yemeni ground spice<br />
blends. “Back in those days, they used<br />
spices as preservatives, as a substitute<br />
for scarce vegetables, and most importantly,<br />
as a digestive aid, immunity<br />
and energy boost. I can imagine many<br />
years ago the spice markets were<br />
abundant with aromas, colors, and<br />
flavors, which is an all sensory<br />
experience.” Dr. Etti explains that there<br />
are two kinds of hawaj, a sweet blend<br />
used in coffee and a savory blend for<br />
soup. Typically, a sweet hawaj consists<br />
of ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and cardamom;<br />
some also use nutmeg. “The<br />
spice selection, mixing and preparing<br />
was a very particular process. Each<br />
family had their ‘secret’ recipe,”<br />
recounts Dr. Etti, which was passed<br />
down from generations to the next.<br />
White coffee does not have anything to<br />
do with milk or sugar. The term describes<br />
the appearance of traditionally<br />
prepared coffee beans. The coffee hails<br />
from the Province of Sidamo in the<br />
Ethiopian Highlands. At elevations<br />
of five thousand feet above sea level,<br />
the best Ethiopian coffees grow more<br />
slowly and have more time to absorb<br />
nutrients. Dr. Etti informs that much<br />
of the research into the various potential<br />
benefits from coffee has focused<br />
on chlorogenic acid, a powerful antioxidant.<br />
Since this coffee is very<br />
carefully toasted, the resulting<br />
“white” beans retain a very high level<br />
of chlorogenic acid.<br />
Hawaj was originally a beverage<br />
consumed by the Yemenite farmers<br />
to aid in digestion after a large meal,<br />
making them able to get straight back<br />
to their demanding work in the field.<br />
According to Dr. Etti, it is the unique<br />
combination of the spice blend, together<br />
with the lightly toasted coffee<br />
beans, what makes this drink especially<br />
beneficial: “Our mixture of hawaj<br />
warming spices: ginger, cinnamon,<br />
clove, and cardamom, have antiviral<br />
properties... We bring the best<br />
ingredients and combine it in a way<br />
that is tasty, healthy and easy to digest.”<br />
“We developed our own secret hawaj<br />
blend, which is a mixture of the original<br />
four spices with an addition of<br />
two more ingredients that make it our<br />
special signature blend.” says Dr. Etti.<br />
“We infuse this blend with our white<br />
coffee. We start with the best organic<br />
coffee from Sidamo, a region of Ethiopia<br />
and the cradle of Coffee Arabica...<br />
lightly toast it to the precise moisture,<br />
grind it, and extract probably the<br />
healthiest white coffee in the world.<br />
The combination of our white coffee<br />
with our signature hawaj blend<br />
enhances the taste and fragrance of<br />
coffee, unlike anything you will find<br />
at any of the popular coffeehouses.<br />
Our Hawaj White Coffee is a delicious<br />
and healthy elixir. We created a white<br />
coffee craze, and we are proud of it!”<br />
says Dr. Etti, Senior Vice President of<br />
Research and Development at Dr Smood.<br />

SOFIE BIRD<br />
MØLLER<br />
Sofie Bird Møller (b. 1974) lives and works in<br />
Berlin. She is known for her work with fashion<br />
advertisements. The advertisements are torn out<br />
from well-known fashion magazines and with<br />
precision but also decided violence Sofie Bird<br />
Møller has painted over the models in the<br />
advertisements so they appear as abstract forms<br />
and so the painted shapes partly obscure what<br />
lies underneath. Anthropomorphic figures are<br />
suggested by thick, lush brush strokes that have<br />
been laid over models striking elegant poses.<br />
The texture and viscosity of the paint are suggestive<br />
of naked flesh, even muscle tissue, meat. In<br />
her work, the Danish artist focuses on the question<br />
of identity and authenticity, which she comments<br />
on in a tension-rich contrast of surface and content<br />
as well as seeing and veiling. With the partial overpainting<br />
of the found, not only new images are created<br />
but also, the viewer sees something unexpected<br />
between seeing and not seeing.<br />

TRINE SØNDERGAARD<br />
Trine Søndergaard (b. 1973) is a Danish photography-based visual artist that lives and works in<br />
Copenhagen. In 1996 she graduated from Fatamorgana, the Danish School of Art Photography.<br />
Trine Søndergaard - courtesy of Martin Asbæk Gallery<br />
Trine Søndergaard’s work is marked by a precision and a sensibility<br />
that co-exist with an investigation of the medium of photography,<br />
its boundaries and what constitutes an image. Layered with meaning<br />
and quiet emotion, her works are highly acclaimed for their visual<br />
intensification of our perception of reality. In 2000 she was awarded<br />
The Albert Renger-Patzsch Prize and has since received numerous<br />
grants and fellowships, including a three-year working grant from<br />
the Danish Arts Foundation.<br />
“She wears her heart on her sleeve,” is something we say about a person<br />
who is particularly sensitive or whose emotions are particularly<br />
readable. For the most part we keep them up our sleeves, these<br />
emotions. In Trine Søndergaard’s photograhs, however, the emotions<br />
are given a kind of visibility in the form of black mourning veils<br />
that cover winter-pale faces. A membrane between the woman and<br />
the world, which both shows and veils, both reveals and screens off.<br />
The veils are in French mourning lace from the 1700s and 1800s. Back<br />
then the veils were a great luxury. They were expensive, because<br />
they required great craftsmanship and hours of meticulous handwork.<br />
In Søndergaard’s photographs the lace is worn by young<br />
women from Tønder. As in the artist’s other photo projects such<br />
as Strude, Interiors and Guldnakke, Søndergaard confronts present<br />
and past in one and the same picture. Most of all, though, they<br />
seem beyond time. The veiled women keep their eyes closed,<br />
which makes them seem more dead than alive – or at least sleeping,<br />
absent, in their own world.<br />

Matt Saunders studied at Harvard, Cambridge and<br />
at Yale University, where he was trained as a painter.<br />
He has been the recipient of the Louis Comfort Tiffany<br />
Foundation award (2009) and the Prix Jean- François<br />
Prat award (2013). Matt Saunders has exhibited his<br />
work internationally at such institutions as the Tate<br />
Liverpool (2012) and the Renaissance Society, Chicago<br />
(2010). His work has been shown in group exhibitions<br />
at the Aspen Art Museum, Colorado (2011), the Deutsche<br />
Guggenheim, Berlin (2008), the San Francisco Museum<br />
of Modern Art, San Francisco (2008), and P.S. 1 MoMA,<br />
Long Island City (2001).<br />
Saunders works are a painting/photography hybrid<br />
whose final form is a photographic print. At their<br />
most basic, his works begin with small ink on mylar<br />
sketches derived from film and television stills. These<br />
mylar sketches are then used as negatives, either contact<br />
printed (laid directly on top of photo paper and then<br />
developed), or placed in an enlarger. As negatives,<br />
the mylar sketches are done in reverse-those parts<br />
which appear lighter in the photograph are darker on<br />
the painted negative and vice versa.<br />
