How Chocolate is Made


Have we wondered how we get chocolate from? Well this time we will enter the amazing world of
chocolate so we can understand exactly we are eating.
Chocolate starts a tree called cacao tree. This tree grows in equatorial regions, especially in place such
as South America, Africa, and Indonesia. The cacao tree produces a fruit about the size of a small pine
apple. In side the fruits are the tree’s seeds. They are also known as coco beans.
Next, the beans are fermented for about a week, dried in the sun. After that they are shipped to the
chocolate maker. The chocolate maker starts processing by roasting the beans to bring out the flavour.
Different beans from different places have different qualities and flavour. So they are often shorted
and blended to produce a distinctive mix.
The next process is winnowing. The roasted beans are winnowed to remove the meat nib of the cacao
bean from its shell. Then the nibs are blended. The blended nibs are grounded to make it liquid. The
liquid is called chocolate liquor. It tastes bitter.
All seeds contain some amount of fat and cacao beans are not different. However, cacao beans are
half fat, which is why they ground nibs from liquid. It is pure bitter chocolate.
