Grinding the cocoa nibs is the next step of the chocolate making process! This is when the nibs are ground into a cocoa mass. This mass contains both cocoa solid and cocoa butter. Sometimes chocolatiers use access cocoa butter to make their chocolate a smoother texture. But be careful! Some companies, focused on quantity over quality, use this step to add cheaper vegetable fats. So keep an eye out for these ingredients and avoid them, just like we do! #mytreat #chocolate #perthchocolate #handmade #artisan #ottawa #madelocal #edibleottawamagazine #narcityottawa #education #educate #narcitycanada #coffee #narcitytoronto #sweettooth #gourmet #caramel #treats #desserts #lanarkcounty #ottawafood #torontofood #familybusiness #codesmill #tayvalley #eatlocalmovement
