In Spanish baba literally means slime. When cocoa beans are freshly taken from its pod they are covered in a mucky fruit pulp, that is the baba. It is reminiscant of the gunk inside a pumpkin when removing the seeds and hallowing it out. When the beans are extracted fresh and coated in the baba, they are termed cocoa en baba.
