The Manufacture of Chocolate and other Cacao Preparations

Book III (Berlin, Julius Springer 1912) pages 68-81, but the conditions

in Germany are at present only similar to those existing in Switzerland and in Austria. The “Vereinbarungen” are nothing more, than a valuable semiofficial guide for the valuation and examination of food and comestibles, the provisions of which, not being obligationary, have no legal effect. They have long been in need of a thorough revision, as recent scientifical results testify, and indeed “The Voluntary association of German Food Chemists” have for years been engaged in such revision.

The consequence is, that the prosecution of various manipulation which certainly deserve to be objected to, such as the preparation of cacao or chocolate from undecorticated beans, would be difficult to carry out. The Association of German Chocolate Manufacturers has protested against that unsuitable state of affairs, and since a remedy is to be looked for only from the enactment of a law regulating the trade in cacao products, that association prepared a draft act, at its XVII. annual meeting at Leipsic on the 15th January 1893, and has submitted it to the government health department.

That draft is in accordance with the provisions printed on pages 231 and 232 a-e. The provisions of the association in reference to the trade in cacao products also contain the following paragraphs:

§ 2.

It is not to be considered adulteration or counterfeit, within the meaning of the law (§ 10) relating to trade in food materials, comestibles or articles of consumption (of 14th May 1879, Reichsgesetzblatt page 145):

1. When the productions referred to under a, b, c are mixed with meal or other substances for medicinal purposes, provided, they are of a character by which they are distinctly recognisable, or are kept in stock or offered for sale under a designation distinguishing them from chocolate, cacao mass, or cacao powder.

2. When covering or coating material, or sweetmeat chocolate is mixed with burnt almonds or hazel nuts to the extent of 5 %.

§ 3.

Adulteration within the meaning of the law dated May 14th 1879, § 10 (Reichsgesetzblatt, page 145) comprises:

1. The addition of foreign fat to chocolate, cacao mass or cacao butter.

2. The addition to chocolate, cacao material or cocoa powder of cacao husk, meal or other substances, except in the cases mentioned on page 279, § 2, pos. 1 and 2.[234]

3. The addition of colouring materials to chocolate.

4. The addition to chocolate or chocolate surrogates of any but cane sugars (beetroot sugar).

§ 4.

As already pointed out, the terms of this proposed legislative step naturally command approval and we should be the first to welcome the appearance of a “Deutsches Lebensmittelbuch” or some similar work[235], intended to serve as an authoritative regulation of the trade in cacao preparations and as a protection of honest manufacturers against the uncertainty now attending legal proceedings. In that case, other civilised countries might be expected to follow.

[201] A word about the R.-M. number seems not out of place here. Baier indeed gives it as an average 1·0 but it varies considerably, as his own investigations show (8 tests of pressed or extracted fats), where there are fluctuations of 1·65—2·37. Information kindly volunteered by Prof. Härtel and our own experience convinces us that such fluctuations proceed generally from the Glycerine employed, which has itself a R.-M. number, sometimes even amounting to 1·0. It is therefore necessary to fix the standard of Glycerine used in the experiment, only too much neglected in professional investigations.

[202] Loc. cit. p. 21.

[203] As starting point it may be taken for granted that the R. M. number for milk chocolate is at a minimum 3·75, for cream chocolate 5·5 assuming that 10% cream possesses the R. M. number 3·0 and 20% that between 5·9-6. Various roundabout calculations are so avoided, when the percentages of cream are thus immediately converted into the R. M. number, and the method is quite adequate for estimating purposes.

[215] Dissimilar to all other existing definitions and adapted to the new method with slightly roasted beans only.

[216] I. e. about 2·3-2·5 kilos of potash to 100 kilos of cacao mass.

[217] Thus satisfying the demands of the Free Association of German Food Chemists.

[218] Would thus be too little according to the regulations under II.

[219] Cocoa powder may thus, according to international custom, also be flavoured with spices.

[220] Cf. in this connection page 204 and tables 19 & 20.

[221] According to recent resolutions of the Free Union (cf. page 282) the percentage of sugar in chocolate (together with additions for medicinal and dietetic purposes) may not exceed a total 68%; but there is no fixed standard for the fatty contents, except in the case of milk chocolates etc.

[222] The excessive use of cacao butter as an admixture has lately assumed large proportions. In commerce there are to be found many preparations designated as “pure cacao and sugar” which contain only 15 or 20% of cacao with 50% of fat, which are said to met a need of the public, but the maintenance will scarcely hold water.

[223] The Roumanian law admits of the sale of a cacao prepared from the unshelled bean and only precludes secondary admixtures of shell.

[224] Better albumose, or still better not included at all, as this conversion of the albumen is by no means proved.

[225] Accordingly an addition of cacao butter would be objectionable. But with 70% of sugar, admixture of cacao butter is unconditionally necessary, where by the pure cacao material sinks to between 10% and 20%.

[226] Editor’s note: These figures are subject to correction, as they do not tally with the majority of accepted results.

[227] Cf. note on page 294 under 2.

[228] Whilst in Germany such admixture is not permissible at all.

[229] Editor’s note: These values would seem to require some revision, as generally only the very inferior cacaos, like St. Thomé, Domingo, Cuba and Haiti, show a lower ash percentage than 3·5%; Ariba, Porto Cabello, Caracas and Guayaquil cacaos show a higher percentage the same remark applies also to the fibre content.

[230] This also requires revision, as on boiling 7·5 grammes cacao with 250 grammes water there will always be a sediment after the solution has stood for some minutes.

[231] Requiring revision. Cf. remarks on previous page and also the values of raw fibre found by Filsinger. Editor’s note.

[232] Requires revision, compare page 261. Editor’s note.

[233] We would prefer Eminger’s method.—Editor’s note.

[234] Cf. above, § 2, 1 and 2.

[235] The “Deutsche Nahrungsmittelbuch” issued by the Association of Manufacturers and Dealers Trading in Articles of Consumption has unfortunately only complexed matters as it was a private undertaking and has endeavoured to sanction various usages, better termed misusages, such as the use of forbidden preserving and conserving agents, artificial colouring stuffs etc. It is true that the part connected with cacao preparations constitutes a glorious exception, and also that there are recent indications of an agitation to reform the whole code.

Appendix.

A. Installation of a chocolate and cacao powder factory.

In constructing a new factory and fixing the situation of the buildings, the first thing to be considered is their convenient arrangement. It is therefore advisable to rely upon an experienced person for the plan to be adopted, and then to leave the proper construction of the works in the hands of the architect. Small operations can be carried on in any building, but in the case of larger works a well devised arrangement of the machines and appliances must be decided upon before hand, that will admit of rational and, to some extent, automatic working. In case of erecting small works which will require only one manager, the best plan would be to have the whole manufacture carried out on one story, or at the most two stories, to facilitate supervision.

The case is different with large works, in which the different departments are controlled by especially qualified persons.

Tables I and II[236] represent, in section, a chocolate factory and a cacao powder factory. As both plans represent only a model section, they serve only to show the most convenient arrangement of the machines with each other. In reality there would be more or less machines of the same kind placed together. Such arrangements might, with modifications, serve for medium sized works, as well as for larger ones. In that sense the following explanations of the two plans are to be understood.

=1. Chocolate factory= (Table I).

By means of the lift (1) all the raw materials, sugar, cacao, packing materials, etc. are carried up to the store rooms (2). In these occur the machines for cleansing and picking the raw cacao beans. The raw cacao is fed into the elevator boxes (3), above the cleansing machine (4) where it is freed from dust; it passes to the continuous band (5) where it is picked and then falls into the movable boxes (6). It is then transferred to the hoppers (7) and is fed, by opening a slide in the hoppers, into the roasting machine (8). The capacity of the hoppers is sufficiently large for holding the quantity of beans for charging the roasting machine. After the roasting is completed, the cacao is emptied into the trucks (9) and carried to the exhaust arrangement (10) where the beans are cooled down and the vapour given off is passed out into the open air. At the same time, the roasting chamber is sucked out through the funnel shaped tube fitted to the cover of the chamber. The roasted cacao is then passed to the boxes (11) to be conveyed by the elevator to the crushing and cleansing machine (12). After being cleansed, the cacao is carried in trucks (13) to the hoppers (14) by which they are fed into the mills (15) in the lower floor. The sugar mill and the sifting apparatus (27) placed near the crushing and cleansing machines are also fed by a hopper from above. The dust sugar, there produced, is carried by the lift (1) to the machine room on the first floor. Cacao and sugar are there supplied to the incorporator (16) to be worked together, before being passed to the rolling mill (17), where the final rubbing is effected. After passing once or oftener through the mill, the finished chocolate mass is then taken to the hot room (18) where it remains in boxes until further treated and it is then taken to the moulding room. In the incorporator (19) the mass acquires the consistence necessary for moulding and also the requisite temperature. The mass is then taken in lumps to the dividing machine (20) and cut into pieces of the desired size and weight. On the table (21) the moulds, lying upon boards, are filled with the pieces of chocolate and they are then taken to the shaking table (22).

From this they succeed to the cooling arrangement, which consists of an endless chain provided with travelling stages at definite and regular intervals. The latter moves slowly through the artificially cooled room and finally brings the moulds to the outlet (25) where the chocolate is removed. It is then transferred on the lift to the packing and despatching apartments specially reserved for these operations, but not distinctly noticeable on our section.

=2. Cacao powder factory= (Table II).

The course of manufacture of cacao powder is the same as in the manufacture of chocolate, up to the point where the cacao has passed through the crushing and cleansing machines (12). The broken beans are then taken by the elevator (27) to the machine for separating the radicles (28) and thence through the hopper (14) to the mills (15). The liquid cacao mass, passing from these mills, runs into the pans (29) from which as much required for charging the hydraulic presses as is can be drawn up by cocks. The accumulator (31) supplies all the presses with water. The pressed cakes are first put into the boxes of the frame (32). In an adjoining room is the automatic cacao pulverizing apparatus. It is fed through the preliminary crusher (34) from which the cacao is taken by the worm and elevator (35) to the pulveriser (36). The powdered cacao is then taken by a worm and elevator to the sifting machine (38).

The sifted powder falls into the tub (39) while the coarser portion is carried back again to the pulveriser (36). The arrangements for treating and the disintegrating cacao powder can be provided in the manner already described.

In both plans, the boiler and engine house are to be understood as placed in an adjoining building.

Appendix

Containing an account of the methods of preparation and the composition of some Commercial dietetic and other Cacao preparations.

The following statements and recipes have no pretension to be complete; they are only introduced to serve as a brief summary of those commercial cacao preparations, now in commerce, which are mixtures of various kinds of substances with cacao or chocolate and are largely used for dietetic purposes. Notwithstanding its necessary incompleteness, the following account, which has been collected from various sources, will satisfy practical requirement, since the manufacturer, as well as the food chemist, frequently desires to obtain information at once, that even a complete technical library is not always able to supply. Medicinal chocolates have not been considered in the following list, since they belong to the province of pharmacy.

=Acorn-cacao Michaelis’= contains according to an analysis by R. Fresenius: Total nitrogen 2·29 percent, albumin 8·13 percent, sugar 25·17 percent, starch 23·39 percent, fat 14·42 percent, tannin, expressed as gallotannic acid 1·96 percent, cellulose 1·88 percent.

=Acorn-cacao= of Hartwig & Vogel of Dresden contains water 7·5 per cent, ash 3·88 percent, fat 16·54 percent, albumin 11·25 percent, carbohydrates 38·76 percent, tannin 2·50 percent.[237]

=Acorn-cacao= of Th. Timpe of Magdeburg contains in the dry substance: albumin 13·88 percent, tannin and cacao-red 5·37 percent, carbohydrates etc. 66·41 percent, fat 10·62 percent, ash 3·73 per cent.[238]

Acorn-cacao can be prepared by mixing 10 parts of pure cacao mass, 20 parts defatted cacao powder, 5 parts roasted barley meal, 35 parts of the meal from shelled and roasted acorns (or 10 parts of an aqueous extract of roasted acorns), 30 parts powdered sugar, and 2 parts pure calcium phosphate.

=Acorn-chocolate= is a mixture of 100 parts shelled and roasted acorns with 500 parts sugar and 400 parts cacao mass in addition to spices.

=Acorn-malt-cacao (Dieterich)= is prepared by mixing 1 kilo of acorn malt extract (Dieterich-Helfenberg) with 6 kilos of sugar (dust), and 3 kilos defatted cacao.

=Acorn-malt-chocolate (Dieterich)= is prepared by accurately mixing 2 kilos acorn malt extract (Dieterich-Helfenberg) with 3½ kilos of powdered sugar and 4½ kilos of cacao mass.

=Albuminous chocolate and cacao.= Riquet & Co. of Leipsic have protected a process by various patents[239] for “The production of a tasty and genuine chocolate or cocoa powder[240] rich in albuminous constituents.” The kernels of the thoroughly roasted bean are worked up with a mixture (?) of water and dry albumen, allowed to stand for some time, the water evaporating, and then the beans are worked up once more. Instead of water an aqueous sugar solution may also be employed, and further the addition of albumen may occur at any stage[241] and in particular when sugar solution is first taken, then the albumen and sugar necessary for the chocolate mixed up, and finally the cacao material (with additions of cacao oil) added. Still better (than the sugar solution) would it be, if the albumen were incorporated in the chocolate or cocoa material in the form of a mixture with some emulsion (!), especially a mixture with milk.

=Barley-chocolate= is prepared by mixing 1 kilo of prepared barley meal[242] 4½ kilos powdered sugar and 4½ kilos cacao mass. The moulded chocolate is to be coated with varnish.

=Cacao and chocolate preparations containing milk= are prepared according to A. Denayer, Brussels (German patent No. 112220, 4 February 1899) by evaporating, in the open air, a mixture of milk and sugar to the consistency of cream, and to the hot mass, defatted or not defatted cacao is added in the form of powder. The resulting mixture is spread out in thin layers and exposed to the influence of a temperature of 80-100°C. in a rarefied atmosphere, then finally completely dried at a lower or ordinary temperature under the same conditions.

=Cacao-egg-cream= (so called African punch) is thus prepared: 10 yolks of eggs are beaten up with 300 grammes of syrup (1 part sugar to 2 parts water) and, whilst being continually whisked up, 500 grammes of cacao essence (see next paragraph) are added. The whole is to be iced before being consumed.

=Cacao-essence= is prepared by macerating 125 grammes of defatted cacao, 2 grammes vanilla, 2 grammes cinnamon, 0·75 gramme cloves, 0·3 gramme mace and 0·10 gramme of ginger with 750 grammes of proof spirit and 250 grammes of water for 8 days, and then filtering into hot syrup, which is prepared with 550 grammes of sugar and 750 grammes water.

=Cacao-liqueur.= A well tested recipe for the preparation of this liqueur is to the following effect: Defatted cacao 200 grammes, cinnamon powder 5 grammes, vanillin 0·2 gramme, are digested for 6 days with 1500 grammes of water and 1700 grammes of alcohol (90%) and then mixed with 2600 grammes syrup (1400 parts sugar and 1200 parts of water) and filtered.

=Cacaol=, 70 parts cocoa powder, 10 parts oatmeal, 17·5 parts sugar, 2·5 parts common salt.

=Cacao-malt= is a mixture of 200 parts defatted cacao, 500 parts sugar with an aqueous extract of 300 parts of kiln dried malt.

=Cacaophen Sieberts= (Cassel) is a mixture of cacao powder with flour, sugar and milk albumin. It shows the following numbers on analysis: fat 13·23 percent, water 7·7 percent, albumin 24·25 percent, soluble carbohydrates 17·95 percent, insoluble carbohydrates (starch) 26·66 percent, woody fibre 2·27 percent, ash 5·5 percent (calcium oxide 0·82 percent, phosphoric acid (P_{3}O_{5}) 0·54 percent).

=Children’s-Nährpulver (Lehmann-Berlin)= is a mixture of meat extract, cacao powder, salep, sugar and specially treated oyster shells.

=Chocleau=, (Reichardt) a glucose chocolate material in tin tubes.

=Chocolate-cream-syrup= (for aërated waters): 125 grammes of rasped chocolate, 62 grammes cacao powder and 325 grammes of water are well mixed and to this add 148 grammes infusion of quillaia (1·8). After standing some time add the contents of a pot of condensed milk with 7·5 grammes of boric acid and make up with 3·8 litres of sugar syrup (american recipe).

=Chocolat digestif= (Vichy chocolate) is a mixture of chocolate with about 5 percent of sodium bicarbonate.

=Chocolate-health-beer=, J. Scholz (German patent No. 28819). An extract is prepared from 10 kilos of cacao beans, which have been kiln-dried at 75° C., shelled, broken in small pieces and digested for half an hour with twice their weight of distilled water at 62° C., then boiled for another half an hour and finally allowed to stand for 48 hours at a temperature of 75° C., with an addition of a solution of 10 kilos of sugar in distilled water, then once more boiled until one half of the water, originally added, has been evaporated. It is filtered, in as warm a condition as possible, in order to separate pieces of cacao and fat, and the extract is ready for use. The brewing process is similar to that of brewing Bavarian beer. After the finished wort obtained in that process has been boiled for 3 hours, 100 litres are taken, for which 35 kilos of pale kiln-dried barley meal have been used, and to this are added 200 grammes of the best Bavarian hops and 12 kilos of cacao extract. The whole is once more boiled and the subsequent operation then carried out as usual. The fermentation (at 7·5° C.) occupies 7-8 days and the storage in the fining vats 3-4 weeks.

=Chocolat rétablière=, a Vienna speciality, contains reduced metallic iron, dried meat, pea and wheat flour, sugar and cacao in uncertain proportions.

=Chocolate-syrup= (for soda and seltzer water). 250 grammes of defatted cacao powder are rubbed down with 2½ litres of boiling water in a porcelain basin on a steam bath, until it is in the condition of an uniformly thick mass and then 1 kilo pot of condensed milk and 2·5 kilos of powdered sugar are added, and when the sugar is dissolved the vessel is cooled. After cooling, the fatty particles on the surface are carefully removed, and then 30 grammes of commercial vanilla extract and 30 grammes of mucilage (from gummi arabicum) are added, and the whole filtered through a stout cotton cloth (american recipe).

=Chocolate-tincture (cacao-tincture)= is prepared by macerating 1½ kilos of defatted cacao powder with 10 kilos of dilute alcohol for 8 days and then filtering.

=Corn-cacao contains= according to Notnagel[243]: water 6·10 per cent., fat 16·96 percent, albuminoids 19·81 percent, theobromine 0·68 percent, fibre 3·30 percent, non-nitrogenous extractives 48·69 percent, ash 4·46 percent. The preparation under the microscope is shown to contain, in addition to the constituents of cacao, a large amount of oat starch, and it may be regarded as corresponding to a mixture of equal parts of defatted cacao and oat meal, based on the above analysis and König’s mean value.

=Covering or coating materials= have the following composition: 50% sugar, 30-35% fat and 20-15% cacao material free from fat, whereby (especially in Belgium, e. g. Brussels) it is in part supplanted by almonds, nuts etc. In such cases the iodine value of the fat is equal to 41-42.

=Diabetic chocolate= has the following composition.[244] Nitrogenous substance 10·07 percent, fat 25·47 percent, levulose 19·38 per cent, starch and cellulose 25·19 percent, besides non nitrogenous substances 14·54 percent, saccharin 0·5 percent, mineral constituents 2·15 percent.

In this formula there is a disproportionately high percentage of starch and cellulose and, in that respect, the composition appears to be irrational, since the introduction of carbohydrates into food for diabetics should be avoided as much as possible. A more rational preparation would be a simple mixture of:

50 parts levulose | 50 parts cacao mass, and 0·25 parts vanillin.

Aufrecht’s recipe for =diabetic cacao= is as follows:

cocoa powder 500 grammes levulose 200 " wheat flour 280 " saccharin 5 " aromatic substances 15 "

In this recipe, also, the substitution of levulose for wheat meal is to be recommended.

=Diabetic cacao= can be prepared according to J. Apt of Berlin by the following patented process (German patent No. 116 173, 30. 1. 1900). The starch is first gelatinised by long boiling of the coarsely powdered cacao, the mass then dried in a vacuum and heated, or roasted at 130 to 140° C. in order to caramelise the gelatinised starch (!). Before being boiled, it is recommended to de-fat the cacao (with petroleum ether, for example!). Instead of caramelising the gelatinised starch by heat direct, it can be first converted into sugar by means of acid, then heated to caramelisation and as much cacao fat added as may be desirable. In order to increase its capability of emulsifying, dried albumin is to be added.[245]

=Dictamnia= of Groult and Boutron-Russel is composed of cacao, prepared wheat flour, starch, sugar and vanilla.

=v. Donat’s albumin chocolate= (German patent No. 82 434) is prepared by mixing dried albumin in powder or in pieces with chocolate or cacao mass, damped with a liquid medium, which does not dissolve albumin, such as benzol, petroleum ether, ether, acetone, methyl or ethyl alcohol. The mass is further treated in the mixer and finally after being completely mixed, the added liquid is allowed to evaporate.

=Eucasin-chocolate and cacao= are preparations containing 20 percent of eucasin (ammonium caseinate). Eucasin is prepared by Majert & Ebers of Grünau-Berlin.

=Galactogen-Cacao=, Thiele & Holzhause-Barleben near Magdeburg, contains 30-32 percent of galactogen, an easily soluble and natural preparation of milk albumin, which is prepared from skimmed milk and contains 70 percent albumin, 3·5-4 percent fat as well as 1·5-1·79 percent phosphoric acid. ~Galactogen-amylaceous cacao~, contains wheaten flour in addition to 20-22 percent galactogen. Galactogen-Speise-Schokolade (eating chocolate with 30 percent galactogen and Galactogen-Koch-Schokolade (cooking chocolate) are also prepared.

Plasmon, Jropon, Somatose and lacto-egg-powder are similar products to galactogen, and are met with in commerce combined with cacao mass and chocolate (see plasmon cacao).

=Hardidalik=, an Asiatic chocolate, is composed according to Chevallier of 42 parts cacao, 180 parts sugar, 112 parts starch flour, 64 parts rice flour and 3 parts vanilla.

=Hensel’s Nähr-Cacao=, is a mixture of defatted cacao-powder with various inorganic salts, such as calcium carbonate and phosphate; the ash of this preparation was found to contain a larger amount of sulphuric acid, soda and iron, than is present in normal cacao. The fat amounted to only 5·3 percent.

=Homeopathic-Chocolate= of E. Kreplin, Lehrte, consists of 35 percent pure cacao mass, 20 percent slightly roasted wheat flour and 45 percent. sugar (Hager).

=Husson’s Mixture= contains the following materials: Arrow root 500, oat meal 500, powdered sugar 500, powdered sago 400, cacao 50, calcium phosphate 50, vanilla 1.

=Hygiama= resembles cacao in appearance and flavour and was introduced into commerce by Dr. Theinhardt’s Nahrungsmittel-Gesellschaft of Cannstatt (Wurtemberg). It is prepared from condensed milk with the addition of a specially prepared cereal and defatted cacao. It contains 22·8 percent of albumin, 6·6 percent fat, 52·8 percent soluble carbohydrates, 10·5 percent insoluble carbohydrates, 2·5 percent food salts, 4 percent moisture.

=Lipanin-Chocolate= contains 42·38 percent fat, albumin 8·07 percent., starch 2·7 percent, sugar 31·44 percent, in addition to non-nitrogenous substances 18·19 percent, ash 0·68 percent, as well as some vanillin and Peruvian balsam (Aufrecht).

=Malt-cacao= according to Franz Abels (German patent No. 96 318, 9. May 1896) is prepared in the following manner: The cacao mass after being mixed with malt meal is defatted by strong hydraulic pressure in order that the malt may be permeated with cacao fat. It is then pulverized.

=Malt-cacao-syrup= or =malted chocolate= is prepared by mixing 240 grammes malt extract and 24 ccm vanilla extract with about 950 grammes of chocolate syrup. Vanillin or essence of cinnamon may be used instead of vanilla extract. This preparation serves for the making of american effervescing lemonade.

=Malt-chocolate.= 2 kilos of finely powdered malt and 3½ kilos powdered sugar, both well dried, are mixed in small quantities with 4½ kilos cacao mass in the mixing machine. The tablets are to be coated with varnish to preserve them. (E. Dieterich.)

=Malt-extract-chocolate.= 4½ kilos of the finely rubbed down cacao mass, contained in the mixing machine, are intimately mixed with 1 kilo dried malt extract and 4½ kilos powdered sugar. The finished tablets are to be coated with varnish. (E. Dieterich.)

=Malto-leguminose-cacao= gives the following numbers on analysis: water 7·38 percent, nitrogenous substance 19·71 percent (18·26 percent digestible), theobromine 0·71 percent, maltose 1·88 percent., dextrin etc. 3·53 percent, starch 27·82 percent, besides non-nitrogenous extractives 13·8 percent, fibre 2·36 percent, ash 4·94 percent potash 1·74 percent, phosphoric acid 1·51 percent.

=Meat-extract-chocolate= is prepared by placing 500 grammes of meat extract (Cibil’s or Liebig’s) in a porcelain basin and evaporating as much as possible on the water bath: 4·7 kilos of powdered sugar are then added and the whole rubbed down with the pestle until the extract is homogeneous. 5 kilos of cacao mass are added and the chocolate finished in the mixer. The moulded tablets must be coated with varnish (Dieterich).

=Milk-cacao= is prepared with 1 kilo of condensed milk (prepared in a vacuum with the addition of 10 percent of milk-sugar[246] 500 grammes milk sugar and sufficient powdered arrowroot to produce a paste, which is then rolled out, broken up and lightly baked. This milk biscuit is ground and passed through a fine hair sieve. 750 grammes of the pulverized milk biscuit are then carefully mixed with 250 grammes of defatted cacao and 10 grammes of an aromatic mixture and the preparation finally preserved in metallic boxes.

=A more bitter milk-cacao= can also be prepared with 50 kilos cacao powder and 50 kilos pure milk powder. This proportion may also be varied, so that more milk powder may be used, as for example 40 kilos cacao powder and 60 kilos pure milk powder or 30 kilos cacao powder and 70 kilos pure milk powder.

=A sweet-milk-cacao= can be obtained thus:

a) 30 kilos cacao powder, 20 " powdered sugar, 50 " pure milk powder

b) 20 kilos cacao powder, 30 " powdered sugar, 50 " pure milk powder,

c) 15 kilos cacao powder, 35 " powdered sugar, 50 " pure milk powder.

=Milk-chocolate= is prepared with 28 kilos of cacao mass, 36 kilos of powdered cane sugar, 24 kilos of milk powder and 12 kilos of cacao butter. The material is very finely rolled at 60-70°C. in the grinding machine described on page 000, and the finished mass not allowed to remain in the hot closet, but almost immediately moulded and packed. The mild kinds of cacao (Ariba, Caracas, Ceylon, Java) are the most suitable for making milk chocolate.

In the manufacture of ~pure milk cacao~, the cacao powder is worked up for some time in the warmed mixing machine, the sugar and the milk powder being added successively. Cacao preparations, which are only used as beverages with water, should have at least two parts of pure milk powder to one part of cacao powder in order to yield a suitable preparation.

=Mutase-cacao= with 20 percent mutase: contains water 5·66 percent, fat 25·24 percent[247], albumin 28·31 percent, fibre 3·81 percent., theobromine 1·67 percent, non-nitrogenous extractives 30·72 percent, ash 6·26 percent.

=Mutase-chocolate= (with 20 percent mutase) contains 16-17 percent of albumin. Mutase is an albumin preparation obtained, without the use of chemical reagents, from nutritive plants, also containing the nutritive salts of the plant (10 percent). Mutase contains 60 percent. of albumin.

=Nährsalz-cacao (Lahmann), i. e. “Food-salt cacao= It contains water 8 percent, nitrogenous substance 17·5 percent, theobromine 1·78 percent, fat 28·26 percent, starch 11·09 percent, non-nitrogenous extractives 26·24 percent, fibre 4·21 percent, ash 4·7 percent (potash 1·66 percent, phosphoric acid 1·56 percent). ~Nährsalz-cacao or chocolate~ is prepared by mixing a vegetable extract (from leguminous plants) with cacao or chocolate. The analysis of ~Lahmann’s Nährsalz-chocolate~ gave the following numbers: fat 24·5 percent, ash 1·36 percent, water 1·08 percent, albumin 6·25 percent, phosphoric acid (P_{2}O_{5}) 0·44 percent.

=Nähr-und Heilpulver.= (Food and health-powder) of =Dr. Koeben= contains sugar, cacao, pollards and acorn coffee. (Hager’s Handbuch der Pharmaceutischen Praxis.).

=Natur-cocoa and natur-chocolate= (natural cacao etc.) Spindler, Stuttgart (German patent No. 47226) are obtained by mixing cacao mass with hot honey. This effects a defatting of the cacao mass by spontaneous separation of the fat. The defatting can be suitably carried further by pressing. Instead of using honey, the defatting can be carried out with syrups, malt extract, condensed milk, fruit juices or plant mucilage (extracts from pulse).[248]

=Nuco-cocoa= is a mixture of cacao with “nuco”, which is a highly praised preparation of albumin. The analysis of nuco cacao gave ash 4·06 percent, moisture 6 percent, fat 15·23 percent, albumin 47 percent, the iodine value of the fat is = 86. The fragments of tissue under the microscope appear completely analogous to that of earth nut (arachis hypogaea). Nuco-cacao is consequently nothing more than a mixture of defatted cacao with defatted earth nut (earth nut cake).

=Oat-cocoa, Hallenser (half and half)= contains 6·5 percent moisture, 4·1 percent mineral constituents, 89·4 percent organic substances (containing 4·3 percent nitrogenous matter) digestible albumin 14·7 percent, fat 17·2 percent, theobromine 0·77 percent, starch and other non-nitrogenous extractives 48·93 percent, cellulose 3·5 percent. This is evidently a mixture of equal parts of oat meal and cacao powder as the name implies.

=Oat-cacao Kasseler= (Hansen & Co.) is prepared according to the German patent No. 93500, 28th June 1896, by mixing oat meal with cacao. This mixture is moulded, pressed and, after being wrapped in perforated tin foil, defatted by ether. It contains 7·2 percent moisture, 3·5 percent mineral substances, 89·3 percent organic substances, which are composed of nitrogenous substance 3·9 percent digestible albumin 18·8 percent, fat 18·3 percent, theobromine 0·46 percent, starch and other non-nitrogenous extractives 44·94 percent, cellulose 2·9 percent.[249] It is likewise a mixture of 50 percent of oat meat with 50 percent of cacao.

=Oat-cocoa= can be simply prepared by mixing cacao powder with an equal part of prepared oat meal, such as is produced by Hohenlohe’s Präservefabrik, by Knorr of Heilbronn and by the Quaker Oats Company. In order to cover the taste of the oat meal 1-2 percent of sodium chloride is to be added.

=J. Berlit=, German patent No. 72449, describes the following method for the preparation of =oat-cacao=, Oats are cleaned, bruised, slightly roasted and ground. The powder is wetted and by means of a kneading machine worked up to a paste which is dried in a vacuum, finally ground and mixed with defatted cacao in the required proportions.

=Palamoud des Turcs= consists of cacao mass, rice-meal, starch and sandal wood.

=Peptone-cocoa= contains: water 4·08 percent, nitrogenous substance 20·56 percent, albumose 8·25 percent, peptone 4·41 percent, theobromine 1·03 percent, sugar 49·51 percent, besides non-nitrogenous constituents 9·37 percent, woody fibre 1·43 percent, mineral substance 4·17 percent (potash 1·97 percent, phosphoric acid 1·21 percent).

=Peptone-powder-cocoa= (20 percent) is prepared by mixing 20 parts of Koch’s meat peptone in the form of extract with 50 parts of sugar and 40 parts cacao powder.

=Peptone-chocolate= contains 10 percent of dry peptone.

=Plasmon-chocolate and cocoa= contains 20 percent plasmon[250] (Siebold).

=Racahout des Arabes= see page 00, note.

=Raspberry chocolate= (Sarotti), German patent 181760 and 204603, prepared with addition of the juice of the raspberry.

=Saccharin-cocoa= gives the following results on analysis: water 7·26 percent, nitrogenous substance 20·5 percent, theobromine 2·09 percent, fat 32·25 percent, saccharin 0·4 percent, starch 13·02 percent, non-nitrogenous extractives 13·51 percent, woody fibre 5·27 percent, ash 5·93 percent, (potash 2·16 percent, phosphoric acid 1·69 percent). See also Hansa-Saccharin-cacao on page. 00.

=Somatose-cocoa with sugar and somatose-chocolate= contains about 10 percent somatose[251]; the first preparation contains 20·71 percent total nitrogenous substance, and the latter 10·24 percent, of which about ⅓ consists of soluble nitrogenous compounds. (Mansfeld.) The first preparation could be readily prepared by mixing 10 parts of somatose (Farbwerke Bayer &. Cie., Elberfeld) with 50 parts of sugar and 40 parts of cocoa powder.

=Theobromade= (theobromine) is a dry extract from cacao husks.

=Dr. Thesen’s Proviant= comes into commerce in the form of chocolate and is chocolate with an addition of albumin. Its analysis gives the following results: Albumin 20·5 percent, theobromine 0·56 percent, fat 39·79 percent, carbohydrates a) (soluble) 26·95 percent, b) (insoluble) 5·66 percent, ash 2·25 percent, water 1·57 percent. A similar product to Thesen’s Proviant results from mixing: albumin 12·5 parts, fat (cacao butter) 10 parts, fat (cocoa nut butter 7·5 parts, sugar 25 parts, cacao 45 parts.

=Tropon-cocoa= is a varying mixture of tropon, 15-33⅓ percent, with cacao powder. A tropon cocoa containing 20 percent of tropon gave on analysis: water 5·75 percent, albumin 38·49 percent, fat 27·77 percent., fibre 3·76 percent, ash 4·51 percent, theobromine 1·6 percent., extractives 22·78 percent.

=Tropon-chocolate= is a chocolate containing 25 percent tropon.[252]

=Tropon-Oat-cocoa= contains 20 percent of tropon, 30 percent of oat meal and 50 percent of cocoa powder.

=Wacaca des Indes= consists of 60 parts cacao powder, 165 parts sugar, 8 parts cinnamon, 2 parts vanilla and some tincture of ambergris.

[242] According to Dieterich (Neues Pharmazeutisches Manual, 7. edition page 191) prepared barley meal is obtained as follows: 1 kilo barley flour is firmly pressed into a suitable metallic (tin) vessel, so that it is about ⅔ full and then heated on a water bath for 30 hours in all. After the lapse of 10 hours the powder is removed and ground in a mixer them again placed in the vessel and re-heated for 10 hours. After twice repeating this manipulation, about 900 grammes of a reddish mass will be obtained which is prepared barley meal.

[245] The absurdity of this process is too evident to need remark; would it not have been better, if the process had not had the sanction of the patent mark? The treatment, which the cacao here undergoes, is so barbarous, that the product must always be spoiled. The only point attained is the complete gelatinisation of the starch, which by further heating is to some extent converted into dextrin. Caramelizing cannot and will not take place by heating gelatinised starch in mixtures with a dry substance, as it occurs in cacao. But in addition, the claim is weak that cacao so mistreated would be especially suitable for diabetics, since cacao serves that purpose a great deal better. The addition of albumin every properly disintegrated is not at all new, for mixtures of albumin and cacao have existed for a very long time.—Editor’s note.

[246] Instead of which pure milk powder may also be used.

[247] All cacao preparations, to which albumin is added, require a large amount of cacao butter as the albuminoids largely absorb the fat.

[248] The composition of the preparation must be stated on the wrapper as such terms as “Natur-cacao” and “Natur-chocolate” are liable to lead the purchaser astray.—Editor’s note.

Transcriber's Notes

Obvious typographical errors have been silently corrected. Variations in hyphenation have been standardised but all other spelling and punctuation remains unchanged.

Italics are represented thus _italic_, bold thus =bold=, underline thus +underline+ and Gesperrt thus ~Gesperrt~.

Subscripts are shown thus _{n} and superscripts ^{n}.

Page 64. “cacao-red~, which latter is represented by the formula C_{17}H_{12}(OH)_{10}.” The first digit in the {10} is illegible in the original, 1 is a best guess.

Page 159. “By a special arrangement, the number of revolutions in relation to the number of the elevations of the slab is reduced by one fourth, viz., from 760 to 190.” by corrected to “to”
