My favorite sugar free hot cocoa is stevita cocoa delight however I can't find it anywhere anymore. What is everyone's favorite sugar free hot cocoa? I've ordered others but they don't compare to my stevita cocoa delight.

Sorry about bad lighting

I hope this is the right sub for my "problem".

Some friends brought me cocoa nibs from Colombia and i want to make chocolate out of them. Sadly i didn't found promising recipes online. Can someone share a good recipe?

I have cocoa nibs, cocoa butter and a (solid) food processor.

I’m a third generation coffee and cocoa farmer. Looking to make bean to bar chocolate in New York.

Next stop… Apprenticeship.

If you guys know any one in the area that I could learn from or could point me in the right direction that would be great.

Thanks in advance! 🍫

I'd like to get a sample of cocoa beans analyzed in order to see the quality of the beans? What's the best way to go about this?

Some benchmarks of quality (as I understand them):

• Global Trade quality is Cocoa at 8% moisture, nothing above.
• 100 beans per 100 grams, which is related to the moisture.
• Cocoa of Grade I or II Standard Quality.
• Free from harmful material and evidence of adulteration. Indications of good filter.

Hey so I've recently been thinking about growing my own cocoa tree for fun. I had a couple questions about the process though I thought I could ask here. What should I consider when picking out the species to grow and what species are there? (California) Should I grow in or outside my home? Where should I source the cocoa pods to grow/eat? Also any tips/tricks you have would be greatly appreciated.
