Cocoa is defined as an edible power obtained from cocoa beans which is rich in polyphenols and theobromine. Chocolate, on the other hand, is defined as an edible paste, which is formed by roasting and grinding cocoa seeds. Chocolate is nutritional and is a strong source of antioxidants. Both cocoa and chocolate can add flavour to the food products, making them delicious with enhanced textures. The increasing application of the products in the food and beverage industry is driving the market.
