Homemade Milk Chocolate
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 май 2024
- I visited Ecuador for 48 hours to pick up fresh cacao fruit, then brought it back to my kitchen and made milk chocolate. This may have been the craziest thing I have ever done. Most people will eat chocolate their entire lives without ever knowing where it comes from. I want to change this, not just with chocolate but with many foods out there. Chocolate itself doesn't just grow on trees. Instead, it's a fruit. One that looks something like an alien life form, but tastes better than anybody could possibly describe.
Think of something that's light, almost foamy. It varies in flavor but can have many notes and flavors including sweet, slightly tart, lemon, lychee, mango, pineapple, and perhaps even a very light taste of chocolate. The process then has several stages. Fermentation, drying, roasting, then grinding. Ultimately, the ground cocoa liquor is blended with additives such as milk powder, sugar, and more to create the chocolate bars we all know and love.
I want to give a massive thanks to the MANY people that made this trip happen, specifically Blue Stripes Cacao and Bean and Co, who let us visit their farm. In fact, as mentioned in the video I've arranged with Blue Stripes to create a box (this is NOT any sort of ad, promotion, etc. They're giving you a box of goodies basically at-cost so you can experience cacao as well, at my request):

Ely Blackburn no
Nick : I don't even know how to describe it
Also Nick : a little bit gooey but also a bit carbonated. Taste with texture with citrusy, sweet. Almost a little lemony.
Honestly? I want plain cacao as a flavor in sweets. From what I've seen, it's its own thing and deserves more recognition.

This is amazing! I love it! Who knew chocolate was made this way? The only thing is is that most of the video is him in Ecuador
Fun fact: Chocolate is made from cocoa beans. Beans are vegetables. Vegetables are in salads.
Therefore, *chocolate is salad*
Flawless logic
You have a point though 🤣👍😅😂
That may be facts but you shouldn't say that in case matpat makes another chocolate theory
Repent you goddamn heretic!
damn people aren't ready for the truth this'll spark a revolution at this rate
Nick: karate chops tf out of a cacao pod to open it
The professional guy: lightly smacks the side of one and opens it in the most clean as possible way
He just wanted to flex his skills
It's cocoa
@@narad7920 going to correct this. Cocoa refers to roasted cacao beans, most commonly ones that have been processed. Meanwhile, cacao refers to the beans of the cacao pod that have not been roasted.
It's a small difference that does get mixed up a lot and doesn't really matter much. But hey, we all learned something. :D
time stamp?

Came here for a milk chocolate recipe, watched an entire travel blog without realizing
you know I gotta make it like him. Unfortunately I don’t have the money for Ecuador but when I do, it’s on sight
So what your saying is when they say “eat your fruits and vegetables” chocolate counts as fruit. Interesting 🤔
Time to eat huge masses of chocolate bars
If you count fruit gummies as fruit because they contain fruit idk what to say to you. Same thing as chocolate.
@@ten9119 technically most fruit gummies are artificially flavored but what do i know lol
I think it only might count as a fruit if you don’t add anything because al the other bars have SUGARRRR
@@janquecoiesjsjd fruits have sugar too
“We took a few shortcuts”
You literally flew to a different country 😂
They usually grind the chocolate for up to 48 hours and temper the chocolate. Both seem tedious, so I don’t blame him for skipping them.
@@barrackobamar fair point

nick, this is how you litterally bring food from country to country, if you have a big luggage, you can stuff it in there so it seems normal. so you can get as much as you want to back to USA. so you can make alot of chocolate... i guess all the belgians are going to drool if they see what you do...

Thank you for helping me know how choclate was made
It's unbelievable that u went to another country for a video that's dedication.
In 2020 I moved to Ecuador and purchased a small rancho. Here I have a couple of hundred cacao trees and coffee trees as well as a variety of citrus and other fruit trees. I am new to farming and I am learning about the cacao process and how to make my own chocolate. Your videos have been a great inspiration, thank you. I now have made my own chocolate and can honestly say that although it looks a little rustic, the flavor is amazing!! Same goes for the coffee! Everyday is a real adventure here in Ecuador and I never imagined I would live in such a beautiful place and own cacao and coffee trees!
Dude that sounds amazing!! I noticed that a lot of people have been moving out of the states overseas to buy land and start their own farms💓💓💓 it’s literally so inspiring to see this community come together and share growing tips and processing tips. Happy growing this year and may you have great yields🙏🏾💓☀️

I learned how to make chocolate in Costa Rica. *Safe to say I’m definitely not an expert*
The cacao pods in Costa Rica Actually look a lot different then the ones over there. They have bigger grooves and they’re very smooth. The trees they grow in Costa Rica are also very different. The cacao trees on Costa Rica are huge! Surprisingly, I didn’t like the pulp. It tasted a bit weird in my opinion. I dunno- maybe it was because it was gooey.
The cacao beans also look different, they’re not purple. They’re more of a brownish color. They first showed me how they roasted them, I got the chance to roast them a bit too. They told me to to wash my hands with cold water because they were going to be hot, but I burned my fingers anyway-. I started peeling them with my family, it took a while but it was worth it.
We grounded them in a special machine till they practically turned into powder. They also told us that white chocolate isn’t actually chocolate-. After that we molded it and added some extra ingredients like honey, pepper, salt, and many more. We also added sugar and all that other stuff you need to make chocolate before hand. We made two kinds, milk chocolate and dark chocolate.
After all that work, I ended up not really liking it. It was too bitter for me-.
*That took a while to write*
That will take 1 hour to finish
Wow mad respect for how long that writing is
I learned how to make chocolate in the Dominican Republic, and I can say that they are just like how you described them, except the the Dominican Republic we grow them along side mango and soursop (guanabana) so that it gets that sweet taste that fruits in the Caribbean have .
Thanks for sharing...... I will love if you can teach me in more detail... what do you think... I love chocolate a lot and will love to know how to make it,,, just for my own use

Hey dylan
I was in Costa Rica around 2016 and had the privilege to meet with the Bribri tribe, while I was there. They taught us how to make authentic chocolate. We even helped in the process! The flavor and quality are things you cannot describe. I was able to barter with them and take some of the chocolates back to the states. One of the best experiences of my entire life. I will never forget it.
I love it 🥰 Go Ecuador ! 🇪🇨 chocolate is my absolute favorite ❤️
