Types of Chocolate
Like coffee, different countries produce different tasting
chocolate. Mexican chocolate has cinnamon added. European
milk chocolate is vastly different from that produced in the
US. Even English chocolate versus that produced in Belgium
are quite different. Flavors also differ from company to
company. It depends on their super-secret recipes, ya know!
That's why you have to sample different kinds of chocolate
from different companies.
Cocoa Chocolate liquor with the cocoa butter having been
removed, is called cocoa - a fine bitter tasting powder.
(Technically, "chocolate" must contain both the chocolate
liquor and the cocoa butter. If the cocoa butter has been
removed and replaced with vegetable oil the result is, by
definition, not chocolate. The higher the cocoa butter
content in chocolate the better it is considered to be.)
Dutch Process Cocoa A special process used to neutralize the
natural acids in cocoa powder. It has a much different taste
than regular cocoa powder.
