Making Chocolate 🍫

Aloha!

I learned to make chocolate from scratch.
I purchased a cacao pod and follow the steps to get to where I made this video.
- crack the cacao pod.
- extract the cacao seeds.
- ferment the cacao seeds.
- tempere the cacao seeds.
- roast the seeds.
- separate the skin from the cacao seed.
- mix the cacao seeds with cacao butter after it has been converted into powder.
- let it cool.

I do believe that you meed an ingredient to help the cacao maintain solid structure and not melt but I am not sure.

This was a cool experience.

Aloha and Mahalo nui loa.
