Fatty acid profile and solid fat content of Peruvian cacao for optimal production of trade chocolate

ABSTRACT Using technical procedures, the fatty acid (FA) profile and solid fat content (SFC) of the Peruvian cultivar cacao beans CCN 51 and ICS 6 and the “optimal chocolate”, obtained from the mixture of the first two, were determined to assess their quality. These cacao beans w...
