Cocoa butter characteristics of Malaysian clonal cocoa [Theobroma cacao]

Five new cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) clones, KKM 1, KKM 2, KKM 5, KKM 6 and KKM 7, which were recommended by MARDI, have been examined for their cocoa butter quality. Analyses of the chemical and physical properties, composition and cooling/melting behaviour of the fat showed that Malaysian cocoa but...
