hello, I have another question please. In a local shop, I have found what the man said was solid cocao liquor ? Can this be used to make chocolate from scratch ? he is also selling raw cocao beans at Aus $ 9.00 for a large bag. I didn't see the weight of the bag, but it was large. He told me his Polynesian customers use the cocao liquor to make an alcoholic drink.
Thanks a bunch, joey

Thanks that'd be great if you could get a number or something and some more info on the beans. My folks live in Brisbane but I am in Adelaide so I'd probably be able to convince them or my brother that it would be a good idea to do a road trip. I'll get you my email via a more direct method through your page.
The agave nectar says its liquid. Is this more of a ganache? Although, the amount of nectar is quite a bit smaller 1/4 cup to 2 3/4 cup cocoa + carob (albeit, 2 cups are added butter. mmm butter). Are there troubles with seizing?
hello... Ok... I am going to be bold and ask...Please forgive me if you think I am too bold. I am a newcomer to all of this and to this site. Perhaps I am over stepping the mark. If I am please tell me.
I want to try to make raw chocolate with the cocao liquor that I bought. I also have a small amount of cacao butter.
I need a recipe with amounts of each item please, so that I can give it a try.. I would appreciate any help you give me very much. Thank you in advance.
Blessings, joey
