Ferment and roast<\/p><\/h3><\/div>

Break open the cacao fruit when it’s ripe and remove the cacao beans. Place the beans in a bowl covered with a tea towel. Let them ferment at room temperature for about 6 days. Stir the beans daily a few times to promote even fermentation. Regularly pour away excess moisture.<\/p>\n

Preheat the oven to 120\u00b0C and spread the cacao beans on a baking tray. Roast the beans for about 2 hours, shaking them regularly, until they become dry, golden brown, and aromatic. Let the roasted cacao beans cool slightly and rub them between your hands to remove the thin outer shell.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Grind and melt<\/p><\/h3><\/div>

Grind the cacao beans with the sugar in a blender. It\u2019s important that the blender is properly closed so that the contents heat up and the chocolate forms into a smooth mass. This may take a while.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div>

Pouring and hardening<\/p><\/h3><\/div>

Pour the chocolate into chocolate molds or onto a baking tray covered with paper towels. Let the chocolate cool and harden in the refrigerator.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
