It is therefore understandable how cocoa has become the primary ingredient in the billion dollar industry of chocolate. Cocoa butter and cocoa powder are the two largest products made from the beans. After being extracted from the inside of the fleshy cocoa fruits, they go through a process in which they are fermented and roasted. They are then pressed in a hydraulic machinery. The solid cocoa nibs turn into a viscose liquid, the cocoa butter. The remaining solids are processed into cocoa powder. Cocoa butter is the main ingredient in chocolate.
The studies that boast of chocolateâs amazing health benefits are not referring to your average store-bought chocolate bar (damn misleading researchers). The chocolate that theyâre referring to is raw cacao. Raw cacao is made by cold-pressing unroasted cocoa beans. The process keeps the living enzymes in the cocoa and removes the fat (cacao butter). Cocoa looks the same but itâs not. Cocoa powder is raw cacao thatâs been roasted at high temperatures. Sadly, roasting changes the molecular structure of the cocoa bean, reducing the enzyme content and lowering the overall nutritional value.
