Hi, would like to know what causes the cocoa butter to turn cloudy and have a jelly like appearance. They jelly remains even when the cocoa butter is heat up to 100c for 30 mins.
Can fluctuation of storage temperature cause such defects ?

Hi,

What is you product?

Why do you heat up cocoa butter to 100 C ?

We heat it to try and see if the jelly will dissolve
Our product is bleached cocoa butter , (did not pass through degum and deodorised process)

Why do you overheat cocoa butter? It has 6 polymorphic forms.If you overheat it will destroy its crystallization properties. Thats the cause of jelly like consistency.
