Volume 8 Chapter 44: Chocolate In Three Ways
"Alright! It's time to make chocolate!" Keith twisted his hands in the air. Chocolate; the best sweet ever. That was what he had obtained from Shakti; cocoa fruit. When he saw those, his excitement shot through the roof! This would be perfect!
Chocolate would definitely open up a whole new flavor for everyone! Sweets in this world were abysmal.
"I had these fermented and roasted for a week." The moment Keith brought these home, he had Diana grow them. Then, he fermented and roasted it.
"Diana, are you ready?"
"Mmhmm. I'm ready!" To make chocolate, he would need the great spirit's assistance.
"The first thing we're going to make is the cocoa butter." Raising the cocoa seeds up, "See the insides? We're going to be using this." The seeds were required for this section.
"Understood," Diana was a quick worker, and with a snap of a finger, all the seeds and shells separated from one another.
"What do we need to do next?"
"This is simple. I'm going to shred them first." Wind sphereing the cacaos, the seeds became more like a powder.
"The final step is to boil it; that's the most tedious part." Shelling and grinding the pods was straightforward. The last part was annoying.
"Diana, you will see oil forming on the pot; please skim it into a bowl." Once that oil was solidified, cacao butter would be formed.
"Understood." While the butter formed, Keith took out some milk. To make milk chocolate, I will need to use milk powder. Making the powder was quite simple enough.
Milk was poured on a baking sheet and placed into the oven to bake.
Hmm, what kinds of chocolates do I want? He was preparing milk and dark. Should he also do white chocolate since he had the powder going? While lost in thought, he asked Diana, "Diana, how many sweets do you want this time?"
"Eh?" How many?! That was a bold question! How many did she want? While Diana was lost in thought,
"Can't we have everything?" Nephele muttered as she appeared before the guy,
"Oh, that's simple enough," Nephele raised her hand, and the sphere formed. Good, now to toss it in. All the nibs were tossed into two.
"Is the milk powder done?"
"Mmhmm, here." Udine moved it up.
"Thank you. This one is going to be in the last one." Keith poured it into the third sphere.
"Is that a lot?"
"It will have three flavors: dark, milk, and white." Cocoa butter was added, making the texture much more silky and robust. For milk chocolate, milk powder was incorporated. Every one had sugar in different ratios. Slowly, the three mixtures were getting smooth.
Pouring them into the molds,
"Now, I just need to freeze it!" Keith's hands started to become ice cold as he touched the chocolate; slowly, the bars turned solid.
"And there you have it, you have three perfect chocolate bars!" Keith grinned, "Please have a try." Keith snapped them into fourths.
"Delicious," "This one is loaded with sugar!" "I love it." The chocolates were a great hit with them.
"Also, try it with the cookies." Keith then drizzled some chocolate on the baked cookies.
"..." The great spirits said nothing as they nibbled like chipmunks.
"You should make it for others," Diana reminded. The others would definitely be
"Don't worry, we'll prepare a lot for the others." Their job was to get those farm animals outside when they had the time.
"I can make some delicious things with this." Keith grinned deviously. And it's almost that time as well.
"..." What are you about to make? The others were quite curious about this.
