how to get cocoa butter from cocoa beans
Cocoa butter Cocoa butter is obtained from whole cocoa beans, which are fermented, roasted, and then separated from their hulls. About 54â€“58% of the residue is cocoa butter. Chocolate liquor is pressed to separate the cocoa butter from the cocoa solids.[4] The Broma process is used to extract cocoa butter from ground cocoa beans. Cocoa butter is sometimes deodorized to remove strong or undesirable tastes.[5]
Nanaimo bar The Nanaimo bar /nəˈnaɪmoʊˌbɑːr/ is a dessert item of Canadian origin.[1] It is a bar dessert which requires no baking and is named after the city of Nanaimo, British Columbia on Vancouver Island. It consists of three layers: a wafer and coconut crumb-base, custard flavoured butter icing in the middle and a layer of chocolate ganache on top. Many varieties exist, consisting of different types of crumb, different flavours of icing (e.g., mint, peanut butter, coconut, mocha), and different types of chocolate.
