  • Chocolate Fabrication
    WHITE PAPER SERIES www.threerollmill.com Tel: (858) 558-6666 Chocolate Fabrication 1. Introduction Chocolate and its varied forms (candy bars, cocoa, cakes, cookies, coating for other candies and fruits) are probably most people’s favorite confection. Chocolate is a raw or processed food produced from the seed of the tropical Theobroma cacao tree. Cacao has been cultivated for at least three millennia in Mexico, Central and South America, with its earliest documented use around 1100 BC. The majority of the Mesoamerican people made chocolate beverages, including the Aztecs, who made it into a beverage known as xocolātl, a Nahuatl word meaning "bitter water". The seeds of the cacao tree have an intense bitter taste, and must be fermented to develop the flavor. 2. Raw materials The primary components of chocolate are cocoa beans, sugar or other sweeteners, flavoring agents, and sometimes potassium carbonate (the agent used to make so-called dutch cocoa). 3. The manufacturing process [1] Once a company has received a shipment of cocoa beans at its processing plant, the beans are roasted, first on screens and then in revolving cylinders through which heated air is blown. Over a period of 30 minutes to 2 hours, the moisture in the beans is reduced from about seven percent to about one percent. The roasting process triggers a browning reaction, in which more than 300 different chemicals present in the cocoa beans interact. The beans now begin to develop the rich flavor we associate with chocolate. Roasting also causes the shells to open and break away from the nibs (the meat of the bean).

  • The Yummy Book
    NINETY-FIVE YEARS AND STILL GROWING Shortly after returning from service in World War I, H. Allen Durkee and Fred Mower went into the business of manufacturing Marshmallow Fluff. They started with one barrel of sugar, a few cans, two spoons and a second hand Ford. Each day they sold Fluff door to door and filled orders making one batch at a time in the evening. It was tough work that paid off. Soon supermarkets began stocking their shelves with Fluff, and the company began to grow. In the 1930's Durkee and Mower became pioneers in radio advertising with their weekly show, "The Flufferettes". The fifteen minute broadcast included live music and comedy skits. Some of the earliest "Flufferettes" shows included the BOOK-OF-THE-MOMENT dramas. They were short comic sketches about a fictional Bostonian scholar named Lowell Cabot Boswell who rewrote moments in American history. Each episode ended with Mr. Boswell's disappearance to finish his untitled, mysterious book. The last drama of the series revealed that the BOOK-OF-THE-MOMENT was not a historical text as expected. Instead, it was a collection of recipes for cakes, pies, candies, frostings and other confections that could be made with Marshmallow Fluff, appropriately called THE YUMMY BOOK. This is the ninth edition of THE YUMMY BOOK. You'll still find some of the favorites from the 1930 edition plus many new up-to-date ideas to try. You'll find the recipe for Never-Fail Fudge that helped raise money during World War II; fat-free ideas for frostings, sorbets and treats; microwave cookie bars and much more.

  • Hot Chocolate
    HOT CHOCOLATE Synopsis Chocolate is vulnerable to heat damage. Complaints of products being in poor condition can arise during sunny summer weather, especially if the chocolate is delivered in vans that are painted in dark colours. The painting of company colours onto delivery vans, and the style of company logos, can therefore affect the amount of radiation absorbed from the Sun and, consequently, the temperature inside the van. In this unit, students solve problems of heat damage to chocolate by identifying the most suitable colour scheme for a company delivery fleet. A simple negative of a company logo, as well as other solutions, are considered. This unit is based on the experience of Cadbury Limited and the deep purple and gold colours used by the company. If use of a company name is likely to be a sensitive issue, teachers could substitute a fictitious name for a chocolate manufacturer. What the students do * Formulate a hypothesis * Model the problem on a small scale * Investigate the effect of colour on absorption of radiation * Evaluate different investigations * Decide if empirical evidence justifies the cost of a full scale trial * Produce display material * Recommend a suitable colour scheme * Evaluate alternative solutions * Interpret the results of a full scale trial with company vehicles Key ideas * Absorption of radiation * Heat transfer and heat capacity * Planning and carrying out investigations t Timing Drying time for painted surfaces is needed. A time allocation of 70 minutes is divided between two lessons, unless

  • Mexico Chocolate Cluster (Pdf)
    The Microeconomics of Competitiveness Professor Michael E. Porter Project Adviser: Professor Niels Ketelhohn Harvard University May 7, 2010 Jasmina Beganović Juan Pablo Chauvin Helena García Suhair Khan Claudia Ramírez-Bulos I. Executive Summary The Mexican chocolate cluster is taking off. In 2009, it received 3 percent of all incoming foreign direct investment. It grew exports to the U.S. by 63 percent, solidifying its position as its second-largest chocolate supplier and stealing market share from #1 and #3 players, Canada and Belgium. In the same year, Hershey’s, which until recently produced in Mexico only for the local market, made it an important export platform. Major global processing company Barry Callebaut followed, locating their third largest cocoa processing plant next to Hershey’s plant in Monterrey, Mexico. The recent rush into Mexico can be attributed partly to the process of liberalization of trade between the U.S. and Mexico under NAFTA. Most importantly, a 2006 change in the rules of origin allowed duty-free trade of chocolate produced of non-NAFTA inputs. These changes, in addition to the availability of cheaper labor and lower-priced sugar in Mexico relative to the U.S. and Canada make it an attractive export platform. But can Mexico create a strong cluster and sustain a long-term competitive advantage as an exporter of chocolate? We believe that Mexico has many of the pre-conditions needed for cluster development, including a critical mass of existing companies, world-class multinational companies, a favorable location with unlimited access to the large and sophisticated U.S. demand, and some advantages in sugar.
