Cocoa Liquor/Mass (New)

Cocoa Liquor/Mass (New)

Cocoa liquor (Mass) is solid, unsweetened baking chocolate made from ground cocoa nibs, which can be transformed into cocoa powder and cocoa butter. 

It is produced from cocoa beans that have been fermented, dried, roasted, and separated from their skins. The beans are ground into cocoa mass (cocoa paste). The mass is melted to become the liquor, and the liquor is either separated into cocoa solids and cocoa butter, or cooled and moulded into blocks of raw chocolate.

Baraka Cocoa Liquor (Mass) is made from sustainably grown and community harvested cocoa beans. Originating from small-holder farms, the beans are harvested and prepared using traditional techniques.

As our cocoa mass is crafted in small batches, some natural variation in scent is normal. Occasionally, the cocoa mass may have a stronger roasted chocolate scent.

What is Cocoa liquor ( Mass) used for?

It is used to make all kinds of chocolate products: baking chocolate, dark chocolate, milk chocolate, white chocolate, chocolate bars, cocoa powder, cocoa butter.

  • Baking chocolate: the liquor is poured into moulds and allowed to harden into blocks.
  • Sweet chocolate (dark chocolate): more cocoa butter is added along with some sugar.
  •  Milk chocolate: milk (dried or concentrated) is added along with the cocoa butter and sugar
  • White chocolate: the cocoa solids are removed and the cocoa butter is use with added sugar, milk and additional flavoring
  •  Cocoa powder: is made by pressing the liquor and removing some of the cocoa butter and then pulverizing the cocoa into a fine powder.
  •  Cocoa butter: this is made when the liquor is pressed and the butter is separated from the solids. The butter can then be poured into a mould and go on to be used in other products.
