What it is

Chocolate liquor is not an alcoholic beverage. It is the paste made from roasted cacao beans after they have been ground. This paste contains both cocoa solids and cocoa butter.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use chocolate liquor as the base for all chocolate products, including bars, candies, and baked goods. It provides the characteristic chocolate flavor and color.

Health notes

Chocolate liquor is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. Cocoa contains flavanols, which are antioxidants. Some research suggests potential cardiovascular benefits from flavanol consumption, but more studies are needed. JECFA has evaluated cocoa and chocolate products.

Allergen info

Chocolate liquor is not derived from one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
