Then. * We are following the whole process from Cocoa dry beans until final 100% dark and pure cocoa powder. SO THAT We can mix it with condense milk to get a creamy texture and finally try it with some fruits. We get the cocoa dry seeds from a family member that lives in the Cloud Forest or Amazon Rainforest. * Roasting * Pealing * Grinding * Mixing Cacao powder with different flavors * Tasting with local fruits All this process will permit you to see the eassy but at the same time complicated process that chocolate factories use it but in an artesanal way. After this experience you will never see and taste the commercial chocolate brands in the same way.
