"New chocolate innovations 2022 and beyond"
In a fast-paced global market, it’s difficult to keep up with today’s everchanging consumer tastes and demands and there are many local and global drivers that are influencing these changes. Brands that stay head lead by emulating credibility, being contemporary and innovative.
The primary cocoa processing equipment
The primary cocoa processing equipment includes roasting machines, peeling and grinding machines, pressing machines, and powder making machines. The roasting machine is used to roast the cocoa beans at a specific temperature range of 70-100℃ to develop the desired flavor components. The peeling and grinding machines are used to remove the cocoa pod shells and crush the roasted cocoa beans into a paste. The pressing machine extracts cocoa butter from the paste, leaving behind the cocoa press cake. The powder making machine grinds the cocoa press cake into cocoa powders of different specifications.
Advanced features of cocoa processing machines
The advanced cocoa processing machines offer several features that help in producing high-quality cocoa powders and chocolates. These advanced features of cocoa processing machines are changing the way chocolate manufacturers produce their products. With automation, digitalization, sustainability, and customization, these machines are becoming increasingly sophisticated and efficient.
