The document discusses various plant-based fats that can be used to produce cocoa butter equivalents (CBEs), which have similar physical properties to cocoa butter. Cocoa butter is valued for its melting properties but can be substituted using blends of fats containing symmetrical triglycerides like POP, POS, and SOS. Fats from plants like sal, mango kernel, kokum, and dhupa seeds are good sources of SOS, while phulwara fat provides POP. Fractionation processes can isolate SOS-rich fractions from these fats for blending to produce CBEs matching cocoa butter characteristics.

Food of the gods…
Model 1. Chocolate is a product of the cacao bean – a seed found within the fruit of the cacao tree, Theobroma (“food of the gods”) cacao. When removed from the fruit, the cacao bean is astringent, bitter and practically aroma-less. Since it is a seed, it contains the embryo of the cacao tree, as well as protein and fat (cacao butter) to nourish the seedling, and defensive compounds that deter animals from eating the seeds. The defensive compounds include astringent phenolics, anthocyanins, and two bitter alkaloids – theobromine and caffeine.

The cacao seed is also ~65% water. Cacao fruit is a pod filled with many cacao beans/seeds embedded in a sugary pulp. When the fruit is mature, the pulp and seeds are removed and fermented. During fermentation the sugary pulp is consumed by yeast and bacteria. The yeast convert sugar (C6H12O6) to ethanol (C2H6O), and the bacteria use oxygen to convert the ethanol (C2H6O) into acetic acid (C2H4O2, the acid in vinegar).

Over time, the acetic acid breaks down cell membranes of the cacao seed, and the defensive compounds mix with enzymes and air.
Figure 30.2. Fermentation of the cacao fruit pulp converts glucose sugars into acetic acid.
As we have seen with browning of fruits and vegetables (Activity 21_Plants and Color), when phenolics mix with enzymes and air, oxidation turns the astringent phenolics into brown colored compounds that are less astringent. When the membranes are weakened by acid, released enzymes also break down the proteins inside the seed/bean into amino acids. After the fermentation, the beans are dried in preparation for roasting.

Roasting uses dry heat to remove much (but not all) of the vinegary acetic acid by evaporation, and generate the browning Maillard reactions
between the amino acids and sugars. Finally the heat develops flavor molecules from the Maillard reactions and the breakdown of some defensive compounds. This is similar to the process used to roast coffee beans. Chemists have detected over 600 different kinds of volatile molecules in chocolate – making it one of the most aromatic foods in the world.

Development and method validation for determination of Deltamethrin residue i...IOSR Journals
Olive oil is the most important commodities produced in the Mediterranean region. Due to its significant economical importance, the usage of pesticides in its production is systematic, by using a wide range of plant protection products with a variety of modes of action. As a consequence, monitoring of their residue levels in these products is a necessity. In the present study a reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography method, with a short sample preparation step, based on acetonitrile extraction is developed and validated in olive oil, with a large scope that includes Deltamethrin as pesticide. Good sensitivity and selectivity of the method were obtained with limits of quantification at 0.2 mg kg-1. Deltamethrin has recovery rate which is of about 80℅. We confirm also the efficiency of alumina, used as adsorbent in the clean up step, to remove triglycerides and to get a pure extract. The agronomic implementation of this protocol allows us to determine the influence of some parameters on the dose and the period of treatment affecting the detected quantities of Deltamethrin residues in the produced olive oil. Indeed, we prove that the treatment dose should be specific for each case considering the olive variety, the geography of the orchard, and the predicted harvest time to determine the convenient dose of treatment. In addition, the results show that the preventive treatment at the blooming phase, does not lead to the concentration of Deltamethrin residues in the oil as it happens at the lipogenesis phase.

#645 Coco Butter equivalents from Vegetable Fats

Coco Butter Equivalents (CBE)
From Vegetable Fats
Cocoa butter enjoys a very high status in the chocolate industry due to its property of remaining hard,
mouldable, and brittle up to 30º C and suddenly fully and completely melting at 35º C (i.e in the
mouth). This has been attributed to its unique glyceride composition having almost 80 percent
symmetrical triglycerides Palmito-oleo-palmitin (POP), Palmito-oleo-stearin (POS) and Stearo-oleo-
stearin (SOS). In 1950s it was discovered that the physical properties of the cocoa butter could be
matched in toto by blending POP and SOS and additionally POS all obtained from different natural
sources. Indian tree seed fats like kokum dhupa, mango kernel, sal form a good source of SOS, the
Indian source of POP is phulwara fat.
Sal [Shorea Robusta Gaertn] Seed Fat
Sal fat is greenish brown. It has a typical odour. Its fatty acid composition shows C16 (4 %), C18
(47%), C18:1 (44%), C18:2 (0.5%) and C20 (2.8%). These values are mean of some samples. The
presence of small amounts of the C20 acid however does not affect the performance of the sal fat
fractions as cocoa butter substitute. A recent study of the fatty acid composition revealed the presence
of 9,10-epoxy stearic acid, and 9,10 dihydroxy stearic acid. These are undesirable, because the
glycerides containing these fatty acids viz., GSEpS (9%) and GSEpU (3%) interfere in the sharp
melting characteristics of the cocoa equivalent. Hence in the refined sal fat specification, 3.0% Max. is
the limit set for the combined amount of the epoxy and dihydroxy acid glycerides.
A chromatographic process using cogelled sillica alumina adsorbent has been described in a patent for
removal of such interfering impurities from the sal fat. A two stage acetone fractionation process gives
a sal mid-fraction (45 % yield) that is suitable for use in preparing cocoa butter equivalents.
Mango [Mangifera Indica Linn] Kernel Fat
Mango Kernel fat is pale yellow or cream in colour. Its fatty acid composition varies considerably due
to variety of mangoes grown in India. Range of values recorded has been reported as C16 (16-18%),
C18 (24-49%), C18:1 (33-53%), C18:2 (1-13%) and C20 (1-2.6%). Presence of linolenic acid (C18:3) up
to 1.2 % has been reported Iodine value (I.V) of the fat has a wide range : 32-60., but large
quantities with I.V. between 45-50 are now available.
Acetone fractionation has been tried out by different groups and suitable SOS fractions for blending
with palm mid-fraction have been obtained. It is, however, found that the low I.V. samples give good
yield of SOS fraction. Samples having high I.V 55-60 give lower yields.
Kokum [Garcina Indica Choisy] Fat
Kokum butter or fat is very clean fat with fatty acid composition C16 (3.4%), C18 (67.4%), C18:1
(28.1%), C18:2 (0.6%) and C20 (0.3%). It has a very high symmetrical SOS content (83.4%). This has
been, therefore useful for direct (without any fractionation) blending with palm mid-fraction for
preparing cocoa butter equivalents.
Dhupa [Simaruba Glauca] Fat
file:///D|/Documents%20and%20Settings/Administrator/Desktop/Website/Knowledge%20Area%202.htm (1 of 3)20/09/2011 4:45:30 PM
2. Knowledge Area
Dhupa fat is a semi-solid greenish yellow or nearly white fat, having faint pleasant odour. Its fatty acid
composition is C16 (9.0%), C18 (46.9%), C18:1 (41.4%),C18:2 (1.3%) and C20 (1.4%). Acetone
fractionation gives 75% yield of stearine with SOS content of 85%. This stearine is used with palm mid-
fraction for preparing cocoa butter equivalent.
Phulwara [Aisandra Butyracea] Fat
Phulwara fat is light yellow to white in colour. It has a pleasant taste and odour. The fatty acid
composition is - C16 (60.8%), C18 (3.2%), C18:1 (30.9%), C18:2 (4.9%). It is rich in palmitic acid.
The symmetric glyceride POP is 62% and it is possible to obtain POP enriched fraction which can be as
good as palm mid-fraction. This fraction therefore is suitable for blending with SOS fractions obtained
from sal, mango kernel, kokum and dhupa fats to prepare cocoa butter equivalent
