Chocolate liquor, also known as
cocoa liqour and
cocoa massis, is a smooth liquid form of chocolate. It is produced by taking cocoa beans that have been fermented, dried, roasted, and separated from their shells and grinding their center, the
cotyledon. The
chocolate liquor can then be cooled and molded into blocks known as unsweetened
baking chocolate. The liquor and blocks contain roughly 53 percent
cocoa butter. Despite its name, chocolate liquor contains no alcohol.
