Cynthia Rohrer The Graduate School University of Wisconsin-Stout December, 2006 The Graduate School University of Wisconsin-Stout Menomonie, WI Author: Kaspar, Kerrie L. Title: Identification and Quantification of Flavanols and Methylxan thines in Chocolates with Different Percentages of Chocolate Liquor Graduate Degree1 Major: MS Food Science and Human Nutrition Research Adviser: Martin Ondrus, Ph.D. MonthNear: December, 2006 Number of Pages: 96 Style Manual Used: American Psychological Association, 5thedition ABSTRACT Chocolate liquor is the source of antioxidant flavanols (catechin and epicatechin) and methylxanthines (caffeine and theobromine) found in dark chocolate. Factors that can influence the flavanol and methylxanthine concentration.of dark chocolate investigated in this study include the amount of chocolate liquor added, alkalization, and cacao bean genus. The purpose of this study was to quantify flavanols and methylxanthines in different dark chocolates from Legacy Chocolates with different weight percentages of chocolate liquor and different cacao bean genera, Criollo and Forastero. Chocolate samples were analyzed by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Results indicated that the greater the percentage of chocolate liquor added to the final product, the more flavanol antioxidants present. When comparing chocolates with similar weight percentages, the Forastero genus had a significantly greater (p < 0.05) flavanol concentration than the Criollo genus. The Criollo genus resulted in a significantly greater (p < 0.05) caffeine content in dark chocolate when compared to a product prepared with similar weight percentages of chocolate liquor from the Forastero genus.

  • Comparison of the Total Polyphenol Content and Antioxidant Activity of Chocolate Obtained from Roasted and Unroasted Cocoa Beans from Different Regions of the World
    antioxidants Article Comparison of the Total Polyphenol Content and Antioxidant Activity of Chocolate Obtained from Roasted and Unroasted Cocoa Beans from Different Regions of the World Bogumiła Urba ´nska* and Jolanta Kowalska Faculty of Food Sciences, Department of Biotechnology, Microbiology and Food Evaluation, Warsaw University of Life Sciences, 159 Nowoursynowska str., 02-787 Warsaw, Poland * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 1 July 2019; Accepted: 31 July 2019; Published: 6 August 2019 Abstract: The polyphenol content of cocoa beans and the products derived from them, depend on the regions in which they are grown and the processes to which they are subjected, especially temperature. The aim of the study was to compare the total content of polyphenols and antioxidant activity of chocolates obtained from roasted and unroasted cocoa beans. The chocolates produced from each of the six types of unroasted beans and each of the five types of roasted beans were investigated. The seeds came from Ghana, Venezuela, the Dominican Republic, Colombia and Ecuador. The highest total polyphenol content was determined in cocoa beans originating from Colombia and in the chocolates obtained from them. A higher content of total polyphenols was found in unroasted cocoa beans, which indicates the influence this process had on the studied size. The ability to scavenge free DPPH radicals was at a high level in both the beans and the chocolates produced from them, irrespective of the region where the raw material was grown. A positive correlation between the total polyphenol content and the ability to scavenge free radicals was found. Keywords: cocoa; chocolate; polyphenols; antioxidants 1.

  • General Operations Manual Chocolate Terminology & Glossary
    General Operations Manual Chocolate Terminology & Glossary Alkalization: The process by which cocoa products are treated with an alkali called potassium carbonate. In some cases it’s to remove certain flavor, and in other cases it’s to alter the color of the product such that it’s more appealing for the consumer. For example, one of the methods of deodorizing cocoa butter is to alkalize it, while the cocoa powder used to make Oreo cookies as dark as they are, is to alkalized to the point where it’s almost blak. Astringency: The dry, cottony sensation felt on the inside of the cheeks when polyphenols (mostly tannins) react with your saliva. Cocoa beans are incredibly bitter and astringent when raw. The degree of astringency found in chocolate is directly related to the care and attention taken by the farmer when the cocoa beans are fermented. Chocolate made with a high percentage of quality fermented beans will have little or no astringency at all. Baine Marie: A bain-marie, or “Mary’s bath,” is the French equivalent of a double boiler. It melts chocolate gently over warm water so the chocolate will not burn. The “bath” refers to the method of placing a pan of food over another pan with simmering water. The term was originally used in alchemy, and was named after Moses’s sister, who was an alchemist. Baker’s Chocolate or Baking Chocolate: A solid, bitter chocolate made from pure chocolate liquor, i.e., the cacao content is 100% with no sugar added. Historically, its only purpose was for baking.

Visit her website at www.6wisdoms.com A Bit about Chocolate! Who said Chocolate wasn’t good for you?! Well most chocolate isn’t because of the heating process used in all commercial chocolates destroyed any of its nutritional benefits. There is also the misconception that chocolate is made primarily from dairy! Only Organic brands such as Loving Earth offer a totally raw unprocessed and unheated organic chocolate, that is dairy and additive free until NOW that is! This recipe will take you to chocolate heaven! But first I’ll tell you about a few raw facts and the benefits of organic raw cocoa beans: • Raw cocoa has the highest antioxidant value of all the natural foods in the world! • Cornell University food scientists discovered that cocoa powder has nearly twice the antioxidants of red wine, and up to three times the antioxidants found in green tea. • Cocoa beans contain phenylethylamine (PEA), an antidepressant that stimulates the body's adrenaline and dopamine levels for a dose of happy feelings. It also has anti-aging and anti- inflammatory properties. • Cocoa beans also contain Flavanoids which help make blood platelets less likely to stick together and cause blood clots, heart attacks, and strokes. • Cocoa is a good source of the minerals magnesium, sulphur, calcium, iron, zinc, copper, potassium, and manganese; plus some of the B Vitamins.

    General Operations Manual Frequently Asked Customer Questions & Answers 1. Do you take orders over the phone? Yes we do, provided we are not too busy. We strongly suggest that customers use our friendly web based ordering system at www.SoChoklat.com if you don’t have time to wait for an order. Quite often our staff are very busy, and aren’t able to get to the phone in time. 2. Does Choklat deliver? At this time Choklat ships all across Canada to both residences and businesses. The cost of delivery is a flat $20. We offer same day service during the week in Calgary, but do not ship or deliver on weekends. 3. I have a Groupon Voucher I would like to redeem… Over the years we have run several Groupon and LivingSocial promotions. Some promotions were for a collection of truffles. Some promotions were for seats at events, and some were for chocolate bars. ALL GROUPON PROMOTIONS HAVE NOW ENDED. All outstanding vouchers are now to be treated as a gift certificate FOR THE VALUE THE CUSTOMER ACTUALLY PAID. For example, if the promotion was “get a $20 box of truffles for $10”, a customer can still use their voucher to purchase a $20 box of truffles. They would just need to pay the extra $10 plus any applicable taxes. Substitutions cannot be made. If the voucher was for an event, then the voucher must be used for an event and not to purchase chocolate products. This is indicated in the fine print on each voucher. 4. Are your cocoa beans fair trade? The term “Fair Trade” as it relates to the chocolate industry is hardly “fair”.

  • 1 How Do You Make Chocolate? with No Doubt, Chocolate Is a Very
    1 How do you make chocolate? With no doubt, chocolate is a very common type of snacks today. Almost 80% of the participants of a survey done at Niagara College eat chocolate at home [3]. As chocolate is getting popular, it is not difficult to find a variety of brands of chocolate manufacturers in a supermarket. Nonetheless, the process of making chocolate is very similar, if not the same, for most of the chocolate manufacturers. This article will provide a disclosure of the steps involved while this sweet delicacy is being made. Author: Ringo Yip Graduating in 2014, Ringo Yip is currently a senior majoring in Chemical Engineering with an emphasis on Nanotechnology at USC. Hoping to pursue a career in the food industry, Ringo has been very interested in the connections between engineering and food processing. On this article, Ringo has chosen to write about the manufacturing process of chocolate, and is hoping to provide valuable pieces of information for readers who are interested in this field as well. Contact Info: (917)-974-0812 or [email protected] 2 Ringo Yip Writ 340 Illumin Paper – Revised How do you make chocolate? Etymologists speculate that chocolate originated from the bitter brewed Aztec drink, “xocoatl.” [1]. Should this be the case, then chocolate was not a sweet treat in a solid form, but first, a beverage made by the Aztech with cocoa beans before the 1300s. By the 1600s, although chocolate was finally introduced to Europe, the recipe for making sweet chocolate still remained to be a secret, and only the rich had the luxury of enjoying it [2].
