CHOCOLATE is an edible substance made up of ground cacao pods and is available in many forms. It may be in the form of a powder, a liquid, or a solid. Cacao seeds themselves, which are the substance from which this popular food substance is derived, themselves have a very bitter taste. To get the familiar flavor of chocolate that we all know and love, these seeds must be fermented. To derive chocolate from these seeds is a lengthy process, these seeds must be fermented and later go through three more processes of drying, cleaning, and roasting.
The popularity of chocolate is unmatched
throughout the world and is a staple ingredient in many foods like cakes,
brownies, puddings, biscuits, and more.
Chocolate has many forms. One is Milk
Chocolate, which contains milk powder or condensed milk along with chocolate powder.
White chocolate does not contain any Cacao seeds rather it has coca butter and
other relevant sweeteners. Hence white chocolate does not have the usual dark
color. Dark chocolate is made by the addition of two more things in the cocoa
mixture, which is sugar and fat. There is also a variation that is unsweetened
and is pure unsweetened cocoa liquid. For different uses, chocolate is molded
into different shapes. One shape is a small chocolate chip, for the purpose of
inclusion into other desserts. One is a bar or a tablet, which is usually for
the purpose of consumption of a single person. Chocolate chunks and blocks are
to be used by professional bakers to make a wide array of desserts.
Chocolate has a tendency to melt and also
loses shape in humidity and heat. It is best to store it in moderate
temperatures and also humidity should be less than fifty percent as well. It
also has a tendency to absorb the aroma of other foods so it is best to store
it away from all other food substances as well. It has a high caloric count and
contains carbohydrates, fats and alkaloids. The oxalates in chocolate can be a
cause of kidney stones in some people as well. There may be some allergic
reactions in children as well. These are its effects on people, while on the other
hand it may be toxic to some animals as well. Thus, chocolate is a popular
snack that can be easily found in almost all parts of the globe, the reason of
its popularity being its unique sweet yet bitter taste.
