Chocolate Orange Cake Recipe
Harem Chocolate has prepared a delicious cake recipe for you using our "Bean To Bar" method of producing "Drinking Chocolate" products. Before we get into the recipe, let's briefly explain what "Bean To Bar" means. You can also find detailed information on this topic in our article under the title "Bean To Bar." by following this link.
The term "Bean to Bar" actually emphasizes a philosophy that values quality and transparency. It refers to the process of making chocolate from the cocoa bean, starting with selecting high-quality beans, followed by sorting, roasting, separating the beans from their shells, and then turning the ground beans into cocoa paste. In other words, it's the journey from bean to chocolate.
Cocoa beans are a natural source of magnesium and one of the highest antioxidant-rich foods. They also contain a high amount of fiber and protein. You can use this pure cocoa powder, made from 100% cocoa beans without any additives or preservatives, in many of your recipes.
