How to make chocolate


Cocoa trees are found in West Africa. Chocolate pods is where the chocolate beans come from. When the beans are dried you put it in the sun where they get the flavour from. When the beans arrive to their destination they are blended, cleaned and then dried. When it is dried the shell comes off and only the nibs are left. Then the nibs are grounded into a nice cocoa mass, the mass is then processed into cocoa powder and cocoa butter.Image result for chocolate beans
White chocolate does not contain cocoa mass only cocoa butter sugar, milk and lecithin are blended altogether and putted into rollers. They are then anchored into a big tank. The chocolate is heated in a processed machine in a temperate. The temperate involves heating and cooling to the chocolate to make a specific crystal structure. It insures a perfect snack and texture and so that it will shine to each of the chocolate. Once the chocolate is tempered  it is made into solid chocolates bars, truffles, whipped chocolate cream, caramel and chocolate figures.
