Description

Cocoa mass is a natural product obtained by grinding previously cleaned, peeled and roasted cocoa beans. The production process results in a homogeneous paste with a dark, intense brown colour and a characteristic deep chocolate flavour and aroma.

Cocoa paste is the basic raw material for the production of chocolate products and drinking chocolate. It contains natural cocoa butter and gives products not only their taste and aroma, but also their structure and nutritional value. Its high fat content and low moisture content make cocoa mass a stable product that is easy to process and widely used in the food industry.

Technical aspects

Cocoa mass is a dark, thick mass with a strong cocoa aroma. Its physical, chemical and microbiological parameters make it a safe and durable ingredient with a wide range of technological applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is cocoa mass and how is it made?
Cocoa mass is made by grinding roasted cocoa beans. The product contains both natural cocoa fat (cocoa butter) and dry cocoa solids, making it the basic raw material for chocolate production.
What are the industrial applications of cocoa mass?
Cocoa mass is primarily used in the production of chocolate, confectionery, chocolate fillings, coatings, and desserts. It can also be used in formulations that require an intense cocoa flavor.
How does cocoa mass affect the sensory properties of a product?
Cocoa mass is responsible for the intensity of the cocoa flavor and aroma in the final product. It also affects the color and characteristic texture of chocolate products.
Is cocoa mass different from cocoa powder?
Yes. Cocoa mass contains natural cocoa butter, while cocoa powder is produced after separating part of the fat from the cocoa mass. As a result, cocoa powder has a significantly lower fat content.
Where can I buy cocoa mass?
Cocoa mass can be purchased through the FDCM platform, which offers raw materials and ingredients used in food, supplements, and animal feed.
