Cocoa Products
Cocoa liquor (mass)
This is the first commercial product obtained in the processing of cocoa beans. Contrary to its name, Cocoa liquor contains no alcohol. It is made by grinding the nib or meat of the cocoa bean. Also referred to as unsweetened baking, Cocoa liquor comprises of half cocoa butter and half cocoa solids. It is a thick, gritty, dark brown paste that liquefies when heated. Our cocoa liquor has a fineness of 98% and a strong rich flavour of premium roasted cocoa.
The cocoa nibs are processed through a milling system whereby they are roasted at a temperature between 100°C – 150°C. The resulting product is the viscous cocoa liquor (also known as cocoa paste and/or solid cocoa mass). The cocoa liquor is further ground to achieve an optimal quality and fineness level.
Cocoa liquor is the base ingredient for finished chocolate, as this can be blended with cocoa butter and other ingredients to produce various types of chocolate.
We offer both natural and alkalized cocoa liquor.
Cocoa butter
The finely grounded cocoa liquor is hydraulically pressed to extract both cocoa butter as well as cocoa cake (the dry component of pressed liquor). The resulting ‘crude’ butter must then be filtered to ensure the removal of any impurities. The filtered cocoa butter is then passed through a ‘deodorization phase,’ where traces of odors and volatile acids are extracted, leaving a more pleasant and natural taste.
Cocoa butter, known as one of the most stable and highly concentrated natural fats, is used to add flavor, scent and smoothness to finished chocolate, cosmetics, tanning oils, soaps and a multitude of topical creams and lotions. We offer both natural and deodorized cocoa butter.
Cocoa powder
Cocoa powder has very little cocoa butter in it; it’s mainly cocoa solids. In other words, you can think of cocoa powder as chocolate with most of its cocoa butter removed. Cocoa powder generally contains just 10 to 12% cocoa butter, while pure unsweetened chocolate contains about 55%. Cocoa powder is an unsweetened powder produced by grinding cacao beans and pressing out the cocoa butter (fat).
The resulting cocoa powder is low in fat, but has an intense chocolate taste. It is most commonly used in baked goods, where it is mixed with sugar and other fats, like butter, margarine, or coconut oil.
We offer natural cocoa powder as well as alkalized (or ‘Dutched’) cocoa powder, containing 10-12% cocoa butter.
