Unos científicos suizos han inventado una forma de hacer el chocolate más sano y sostenible. No se trata de un truco mágico de la elaboración de este nuevo tipo de chocolate, sino una nueva visión del fruto del cacao. Normalmente sólo se extraen las habas y la pulpa del cacao.

Scientists in Switzerland have invented a way to make chocolate healthier and more sustainable. No Oompa Loompas, chocolate rivers or magical gum were involved in the making of this new treat - simply a fresh look at the whole cocoa fruit. Typically, only cocoa beans and pulp are extracted for our chocolate bars. But researchers at the ETH Zurich federal technology institute have discovered that the cocoa pod husk can be used too, as a replacement for granulated sugar. Their new recipe involves taking what’s known as the endocarp, the inner layer of the fruit shell, and mixing it with some of ...
