About this deal

It can be processed further to separate the cocoa solids from the cocoa butter, leading to two distinct products: cocoa powder and cocoa butter. I've been snacking on them on their own and have just used them in baking brownies and cookies and they taste amazing! What sets Whitakers apart is our secret family recipe, honed to perfection over generations, and our uncompromising commitment to using only the finest and most natural ingredients.

So, whether you’re a casual chocoholic or a budding chocolatier, join us as we embark on an exploration into the heart of the matter – what exactly is cocoa mass? Hence, as a chocolatier, I always emphasise sourcing the finest cocoa mass to ensure an outstanding end product. It is the crucial building block that gives chocolate its distinctive and irresistible taste and texture. If you’re sensitive to caffeine, it’s still worth keeping in mind that consuming chocolate products made with cocoa mass could contribute to your overall caffeine intake. After being extracted from cocoa beans, the mass, which includes both cocoa solids and cocoa butter, serves as the foundation of any chocolate product.The process involves roasting the cocoa beans, removing the husks, and then grinding the resulting nibs into a liquid form. Cocoa mass is a pure, unsweetened form of chocolate, allowing you to add intensity to the flavour and colour of your chocolate creations.

Um meinen Zuckerkonsum und damit Heißhungerattacken in Griff zu bekommen, habe ich begonnen meine Schokolade selber herzustellen. The exact amount can vary depending on the specific type of cocoa bean and the way it’s processed, but in general, cocoa mass does have a small amount of caffeine. This is a wonderful creamy, smooth cocoa mass produced from Single Origin Ecuadorian Arriba cocoa beans.The result is a range of chocolates that not only taste exquisite but are also crafted with great care and attention to detail. Cocoa mass is, therefore, the essential ingredient in chocolate, dictating the intensity of the chocolate flavour and contributing significantly to the texture of the end product.

With its derived origins from the humble cacao bean, cocoa mass is a testament to the transformative power of careful processing and the art of chocolate-making. Absolute value for money as you really don’t need much before it becomes too much, so adjust and taste as you go, whatever you’re making.

Cocoa mass contains both cocoa solids and cocoa butter, giving it a rich, intense chocolate flavour, whereas cocoa powder is essentially defatted cocoa solids, offering the same chocolatey taste but without the richness and mouthfeel provided by the cocoa butter. Ideal for tuning and intensifying the flavour of your chocolates - it mixes easily with chocolate, enhancing and intensifying the taste, or it can be used to create your own chocolate recipe. Different beans yield different flavoured cocoa mass, which in turn creates the diversity of chocolate flavours we get to enjoy.

Although this is used as an ingredient in making chocolate, please note that this is cocoa mass, this product is not to be mistaken with chocolate. Produced from Nacional cocoa beans grown in the province of Guayas this cocoa has all the wonderful characteristics of the traditional Ecuadorian Arriba cocoa. Cocoa powder, on the other hand, is made by taking the cocoa mass and pressing it until the majority of the cocoa butter is extracted. In the event of any safety concerns or for any other information about a product please carefully read any instructions provided on the label or packaging and contact the manufacturer. I enjoy dark chocolate, mostly 85% (Lindt) but this has dared me to go hard and I’m afraid I might be a bit of a chocolate snob ( and a few kilos heavier) by the time the quarantine is over!As a chocolatier, I take great pride in utilising this wonderful ingredient to create moments of joy and indulgence. pure, unsweetened cocoa made from 100% whole roasted cocoa beans that have been meticulously ground to ensure the highest levels of finesse. A great way to be able to control the sweetness of chocolate desserts as this is just chocolate, no sugar or sweeteners added.
