They are fermented, dried, roasted, and then processed to produce cocoa mass or cocoa solids and cocoa butter. Sugar: Used to sweeten the chocolate, sugar is typically added in varying amounts depending on the type of chocolate (dark, milk, white). Milk Powder (for milk chocolate): Milk chocolate includes milk powder or condensed milk, which gives it a creamy texture and a milder flavor compared to dark chocolate. Cocoa Butter: A natural fat derived from cocoa beans, cocoa butter is used in chocolate production to provide smoothness and texture. Emulsifiers: Common emulsifiers like soy lecithin are added to chocolate to stabilize the mixture of cocoa solids and cocoa butter, preventing separation and ensuring a smooth texture.
