How to Make Chocolate from Bean to Bar

Ever wonders what it actually takes to make your own chocolate at home? We’re talking starting with cacao beans and processing them to edible chocolate?

Most of us buy our bars of chocolate with no thought of the raw beans it comes from but this video posted on You Tube by Astro Jeff goes through the entire process.

The best thing about the video is that the maker uses regular household kitchen items which means anyone can have a go at this.

Take a look at the video but be beware, it takes a long time, enough to make you consider just how much work goes into one of the world’s favourite treats.
