Product Description
Cocoa
Cocoa is the seed of the cacao tree. The seed contains a lot of fat, and is used to produce cocoa butter, which is then used to produce chocolate. They are a key ingredient of chocolate, chocolate syrup, and chocolate confections used in cakes, creams, drinks, toppings.
One analysis of the chemical composition of beans after fermentation and drying is as follows:
|
| Nib % Maximum | Shell % Maximum |
| Water | 3.2 | 6.6 |
| Fat (cocoa butter, shell fat) | 57 | 5.9 |
| Ash | 4.2 | 20.7 |
| Nitrogen |
|
|
| Total nitrogen | 2.5 | 3.2 |
| Theobromine | 1.3 | 0.9 |
| Caffeine | 0.7 | 0.3 |
| Starch | 9 | 5.2 |
| Crude fibre | 3.2 | 19.2 |
This gives an indication of the chemical composition of the bean but it must be remembered that this will vary depending on the type of bean, the quality of the fermentation and drying and the subsequent processing of the bean.
