Using Cacao Part 2: Chocolate By Any Other Name (Chocolate Defined)

Using Cacao Part 2

Chocolate By Any Other Name (Chocolate Defined)

 

Chocolate Names

 

We are in the throes of a very chocolatey discussion around here.  In Part 1, we talked about cacao vs. cocoa, and whether it matters if it is raw, fair trade, or organic.   There is nuanced complexity in the names we give it.  We all know what we like by way of flavor, but do we actually know what it is that we like?   All of the information on the chart below was found here, the FDA regulation book for naming and labeling foods.  We just took the boring out of it.

We want you to know where your food comes from, and we want you to know what to do with it.  We hope that as we become better informed, we will make better choices. If you missed Part 1, look it over and see why we believe this is important.


If you are looking for organic, fair trade cocoa drink mix or cacao nibs, you can find them here at Pantry Paratus.
