How it is produced For us to enjoy its benefits, we must first learn the processes it takes for it to get into our favourite packaging. Chocolates are from the cacao tree from the evergreen tree family, is commonly found in areas with tropical climate like Panama and other tropical regions of the world. The various parts of cacao tree like the leaves, roots and flower are used as medicinal agent. The seeds in fruits are the ones harvested to produce cacao.  The seeds are fist cleaned and segregated by type and roasted. Then the cacao beans are cracked and winnowed leaving the nibs essential in making the cocoa that we love. The nibs itself can be eaten but it's still bitter. To produce the bar form that we know, the nibs are crushed and made into a thick paste called cocoa liquor. Then the cocoa liquor is sweetened and flavoured to make our favourite sweet.
