Chocolove: Love at first bite with chocolate ingredients

 Sourcing Organic Cocoa Beans

Sourcing organic cocoa beans is the first and most critical step in the chocolate-making process. I often travel to different regions, seeking out cocoa farms that practice organic farming methods. These methods avoid the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, resulting in beans that are rich in flavour and free from harmful chemicals. The origin of the beans also significantly affects the flavour profile, with different regions offering unique tasting notes, from fruity to nutty to floral.

Roasting the Beans

Roasting is where the magic begins. The beans must be roasted to develop their flavour fully, and I’ve found that this step requires careful attention to detail. Too much heat can burn the beans, while too little will leave them underdeveloped. For dark chocolate, I prefer a slightly longer roast to bring out the deep, complex flavours, while for milk chocolate, a lighter roast preserves the more delicate, creamy notes.
