Cocoa bean fingerprinting via correlation networks

open access: yesnpj Science of Food, 2022
Cocoa products have a remarkable chemical and sensory complexity. However, in contrast to other fermentation processes in the food industry, cocoa bean fermentation is left essentially uncontrolled and is devoid of standardization.

An untargeted metabolomic assessment of cocoa beans during fermentation [PDF]

open access: yesFood Research International, 2016
Abstract Fermentation is a critical step in the processing of high quality cocoa; however, the biochemistry behind is still not well understood at a molecular level. In this research, using a non-targeted approach, the main metabolomic changes that occur throughout the fermentation process were explored.

Comparative effects of superheated steam and hot air roasting on the in vitro phospholipase A2 inhibitory activity and polyphenol composition of cocoa beans

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cocoa, derived from Theobroma cacao, is a popular food ingredient used to produce chocolate. Cocoa is rich in polyphenols and human and laboratory model studies have indicated that cocoa and chocolate can mitigate chronic inflammatory conditions.

Evidence on the effect of the cocoa pulp flavour environment during fermentation on the flavour profile of chocolates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Empirical observations carried out by the first author during his many visits to cocoa producing countries suggested that a relationship might exist between cocoa pulp flavour attributes and sensory traits of cocoa liquor and chocolates.

The use of edible insects in human food

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract The world population is expected to reach approximately 10 billion people by 2050, which will significantly increase global food demand and may lead to agricultural shortages and a higher risk of food insecurity. In this context, this review discusses the potential of insects as alternative sources of animal protein, addressing their ...

Variations in Ecuadorian Cocoa Fermentation and Drying at Two Locations: Implications for Quality and Sensory

open access: yesFoods, 2023
In Ecuador, various processes are applied during cocoa post-harvesting. This study, therefore, explored fermentation parameters across two locations with 2–7 independent runs, focusing on temperature, microbial counts, pH during fermentation and drying ...

Characteristics of Malaysian and Sulawesian Cocoa Beans and the Optimisation of Quality Through Blending [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Commercial Malaysian and Sulawesian cocoa were found to be significantly different (p0.05). More purple bean was found in the Sulawesian beans (78%) compared to the Malaysian beans (4%).
