The guide chocolate




 The fruit of the cocoa tree is called the cacao pod.

A tree produces about 80 cacao-pods per year. It's a distortion of the word "caboche" which means "the head".

You can find cocoa beans Inside this fruit. Given that only 1% of the flowers bloomed on each tree become cacao-pods, It is hardly surprising that chocolate tasting remains such a rare pleasure.
