Our friend Val applies the goo. This henna product starts off as a brick that we shave into bits, much like chocolate. Add hot water and keep the mixture warm in a double-boiler. It smells faintly of coffee and looks almost exactly like its namesake, "caca". Caca is this henna's store brand, and it's also the Spanish word for poop.
