Cocoaa

To manufacture 1 kilogram of chocolate, 900 cocoa beans are needed. Harvesting of cocoa beans is undertaken when the pods containing the cocoa beans are ripe, and the fruit has turned yellow. The ripen pods are then opened with a wooden baton so as to separate the seeds and pulp from the outer rind. The seeds and peel undergo fermentation on the farm to fully develop the chocolate flavor; then the seeds are dried. The main cocoa bean producing countries in Africa are Ivory Coast, Ghana, Cameroon, Nigeria and Uganda.
