Abstract
Current and potential utilisation of various parts of cocoa are briefly described. Cocoa pod is a potential source of pectin and mav also be incorporated to animal feed. While the pulp can be extracted before fermentation to produce juice, jam, jelly and other confectionery products. From cocoa sweating the production of citric acid, wine and vinegar are possible. Cocoa nib is mainly used for production of cocoa liquor, powder and butter. Cocoa liquor and butter being the main ingredients for chocolate production while cocoa powder is mainly used as colouring and flavouring for cakes, beverages and other confections. In addition to these, the nib can also be utilised to produce cocoa flavoured, wine and vinegar. The usage of cocoa butter may be further explored as ingredients for cake making and replacement for other vegetable fats. Cocoa shell which is normally treated as waste, has shown to contain anthocynin, a well known natural food colouring.
