Harvest the cocoa, then you may choose to ferment it directly or add it to a fermented grain base, then distill it (boil off the water, collect the alcohol) until you get to a desired proof, cool it down and add it to your Starbucks!
Either by distilling cocoa or infusing another liquor with cocoa.
Cocoa is made by separating the cocoa butter out of chocolate liquor, then drying the defatted chocolate liquor. You could probably mix sugar, cocoa powder and cocoa butter into a chocolate, but that would be more trouble than it's worth.
Yes, both are the same. Cocoa mass is another name for cocoa liquor.
Yes! Cocoa liquor has no alcohol content. However cocoa liqueur does.
Go to your moms house and ask her to make it
No, it is an animal.
No, but the cocoa liquor and cocoa powder parts of the cocoa bean do both contain caffeine.
Derived products from cocoa bean: - cocoa powder - cocoa oil - cocoa butter - cocoa liquor - chocolate
yes
cocoa butter is about Rs.600 per kg, not sure about other items
they are hulled to expose the nibs, the shells are sold as garden fodder, like pine bark, they grind it into a mass and the using a machine known as a Conching machine work it with rollers to expose the cocoa butter and make what is known as "Chocolate Liquor", it is then sweetened, or has milk and sugar added for either dark chocolate or milk, now for cocoa an alkaline is added and it is dried a lot like sugar is processed into a powder, white chocolate has only got cocoa butter which is derived from the cocoa mass when converting it to liquor. OR................. An even better answer would be this. The milling process releases the nibs liquid. It's called chocolate liquor, (with no alchol content of course!). The machine passes the nibs through presetts of millstones and the heat generator causes the liquid to change into chocolate liquor. Then the chocolate liquor is pumped into presses. Hydraulic pressure extracts cocoa butter from the chocolate liquor, leaving the cocoa solids. Chocolate liquor and some additional cocoa butter is added back into the manufactory process in precise amounts to make different types of chocolates. But the cakes of solid cocoa are what is left after the removal of cocoa butter. When the cakes are cooled, pulverized, and milled they become cocoa powder.
All chocolate is made up of the same ingredients, cocoa mass, cocoa butter and the extra milk and sweetener. The difference is that white chocolate contains very little or no cocoa liquor at all, where as dark chocolate contains a lot. Cocoa liquor is the mixture of cocoa oil and ground cocoa seeds.
To make chocolate, you take the cocoa pod and take the cocoa beans out of it, Then you roast them. Then you crush them, and VOILA!!! YA GET POWDER
