secured the loyalty of their customers by exploiting a commodity first popular with the ancient cultures of Mesoamerica. Archaeological evidence from various sites across Central and South America reveals that regional cultures were using cocoa for making beverages as early as 1900 BC. Today derivatives of the cocoa bean are found in confectionery with a global sales value that is expected to be in the order of $120bn in 2014. The chocolate confectionery sector has produced brands that are instantly recognised across the globe: Nestlé, Mars, Cadbury, Ferrero, Lindt & Sprüngli and many more. Amongst the listed sector stocks, the valuation of pure chocolate play Lindt & Sprüngli at 3.8x revenues underscores the value of brands built on cocoa. Applying the average multiple of revenues for the leading listed brand owners (2.9x) to 2014 expected global chocolate confectionery sales, suggests the sector has a value of some $350bn. Surprisingly, all this rests on the production annually of some 4m metric tonnes of cocoa beans by smallholder farms, typically of less than 5 hectares (ha) each, and mostly located in West Africa. A giant FMCG sector is balanced precariously atop a system of simple agriculture that has changed little since the 19 th century and which produces a subsistence income that leaves nothing for farm investment.

Bread is served in various forms with any meal of the day. It is eaten as a snack, and used as an ingredient in other culinary preparations, such as sandwiches, and fried items coated in bread crumbs to prevent sticking. It forms the bland main component of bread pudding, as well as of stuffing designed to fill cavities or retain juices that otherwise might drip out. Bread has a social and emotional significance beyond its importance as nourishment. It plays essential roles in religious rituals and secular culture. Its prominence in daily life is reflected in language, where it appears in proverbs, colloquial expressions ("He stole the bread from my mouth"), in prayer ("Give us this day our daily bread") and in the etymology of words, such as "companion" (from Latin comes "with" + panis "bread"). 1.2 OBJECTIVE The Objective of this unit is to provide: 1.

  • A Study on the Breaking and Winnowing Machine for Cocoa
    Vol.9 (2019) No. 1 ISSN: 2088-5334 A Study on the Breaking and Winnowing Machine for Cocoa Beans at Small Industrial Scale in Vietnam Huy-Bich Nguyen#, *, Duy-Lam Pham#, Van-Lanh Nguyen# # Nong Lam University Ho Chi Minh city, Linh Trung Ward, Thu Duc District, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam E-mail: * [email protected] Abstract — In the chocolate or cocoa powder processing process, the roasted cocoa beans have to pass to the breaking and winnowing step to obtain the nibs. The quality of chocolate or cocoa powder depends strongly on the amount of shell that is not separated and still mixing on the nibs. Recently, most of the cocoa bean breaking machines are based on the principle of grinding. This leads to some disadvantages as (1) the shells might be not separated from the cocoa kernel after the shattering that results in low efficiency of the cleaning process (<96%); and (2) the nibs are also crushed so much to become smaller so that they are easy to moving out together with the shell in the winnowing step due to the similar density. As a result, the ratio of nibs loss during the cleaning process is very high as around 11.3%. Therefore, the shattering and cleaning process has strongly affected the economic efficiency of cocoa production. One of the new methods for cocoa breaking and winnowing in order to increase the cleanness level and to reduce the nibs loss rate has been developed and studied. The cocoa seeds breaking based on the centrifugal mechanism in combination with the pneumatic cleaning have been conducted to manufacturing breaking and winnowing machine with a capacity of about 80 kg/hour.

  • February 11 2014 1 Cacao Grinding Curriculum Long Term Goal
    Cacao Grinding Curriculum Long Term Goal Participants will feel a sense of excitement and curiosity about the natural world. Big Idea After cacao beans have been harvested, fermented, dried and roasted, they must then be cracked and winnowed. Following that, the next step in chocolate making is to grind the nibs until they liquefy into a cacao liqueur. Once the beans are processed into chocolate liquor, the manufacturing of finished products can begin. Today much of the process happens with the use of sophisticated machines. However, long before water-powered mills existed, the Aztec and Maya were grinding cacao by hand with a manos and metates just like these. Understandings Theobroma cacao also cacao tree and cacao tree, is a small (13–26 ft) evergreen tree in the family Malvaceae, native to the deep tropical regions of Central and South America. Its seeds are used to make cacao powder and chocolate. Granite and other stones have been used to grind chocolate (among other things) for thousands of years. It wasn’t until almost 1800 that a machine-powered mill was invented. The roasted beans must first be harvested from the pods and crushed to remove the nibs from the shells. The nibs are then ground until the friction and heat of the milling reduces them to a thick chocolate-colored liquid, known as 'mass.' This contains cacao butter and solidifies on cooling. This is the basis of all chocolate and cacao products. Essential Questions . What is Theobroma cacao (cacao tree)? . What is a cacao nib? . What is the life cycle of the cacao tree – from seed to nib? .

It is used to make chocolate, pharmaceuticals, ointments, and toiletries. Cocoa butter has a mild chocolate flavor and aroma. Creation Cocoa beans are ground into chocolate liquor and pressed to separate the cocoa butter from the cocoa solids. Cocoa butter can alternately be extracted from whole beans by the broma process. It is most often deodorized to remove its strong and undesirable taste. Uses Milk and sugar are added to make white chocolate, but most of it is used to produce milk chocolate, some of which contains more cocoa butter than cocoa liquor. Because of the low melting point of cocoa butter, it is often used in pharmaceuticals as a base for suppositories. It is typically solid at room temperature, but readily melts at body temperature, releasing the medication. Cocoa butter is one of the most stable fats known, containing natural antioxidants that prevent rancidity and give it a storage life of two to five years, making it a good choice for non-food products. The smooth texture, sweet fragrance and emollient property of cocoa butter make it a popular ingredient in cosmetics and skin care products, such as soaps and lotions. The moisturizing abilities of cocoa butter are frequently recommended for prevention of stretch marks in pregnant women, treatment of chapped skin and lips, and as a daily moisturizer to prevent dry, itchy skin.

  • Cocoa Is Ghana, Ghana Is Cocoa' Portrays the Important Role Cocoa Plays in the Economy of Ghana
    Агрофорсайт № 3_2016 ПРОИЗВОДСТВО КАКАО-МАСЛА В ГАНЕ Ханьябуи Дебора Делали (Гана), Панфилов А. В., Петрова И.В. PRODUCTION OF COCOA-BUTTER IN GHANA Cocoa-The saying 'Cocoa is Ghana, Ghana is Cocoa' portrays the important role cocoa plays in the economy of Ghana. Cocoa employs approximately 800,000 farm families spread over six of the ten regions of Ghana. The crop generates about $2 billion in foreign exchange annually and is a major contributor to Government Revenue and GDP (Gross Domestic Product). Cocoa products like chocolate, pebbles, and cocoa powder are used by many Ghanaians. Cocoa is indeed, Ghana and Ghana is Cocoa. The cocoa bean was first introduced to Ghana by the Dutch missionaries at the beginning of the 19th century. Its widespread cultivation is however attributed to Tetteh Quarshie, a Ghanaian blacksmith from Osu in Accra. He lived and worked at Fernando Po for several years and on his return to Ghana in 1879, brought with him the Amelonado cocoa pods. He established a farm at Akwapim Mampong in the Eastern Region which turned into a nursery for all pioneering cocoa farmers in Ghana. His legacy is the cocoa bean that has become the backbone of the Ghanaian economy. Cocoa cultivation, after Tetteh Quarshie assumed commercial dimensions and spread to all forest areas of the country, particularly Eastern, Ashanti, Brong Ahafo, Volta, Central and Western Regions. Cocoa pods mature and ripe throughout the year. Cocoa is harvested by cutting the ripe pods from the trees, breaking them open and extracting the beans. The beans are fermented for 6 days with three turnings before drying for another 7 days in the sun.

ABSTRACT Medicated chocolate and medicated lollipops are more acceptable dosage form in pediatrics because conventional dosage forms like tablet and capsule have some limitations in case of pediatric patients for example bitterness of tablet and they can’t swallow the conventional dosage form. To overcome those problems new drug delivery system has been developed by the Researchers i.e. Chocolate drug delivery system (medicated chocolate) and medicated lollipops. This type of system increases aesthetic appeal which indirectly increases the patient compliance. Medicated chocolate and medicated lollipops contains a sweetening agent, flavoring agent, and coloring agent that more to attract the pediatrics. The advantages of the medicated chocolate and lollipops are taste masking of bitter drugs, enhanced bioavailability, enhanced the retention time of the dosage form in the oral cavity which also overcomes gastric irritation. Mostly disadvantages of the chocolate have been focused but those are some health benefit of a chocolate exists too like antioxidant property, reduction in cardiovascular and metabolic disorder and so on which are used by chocolate drug delivery system.
