Making chocolate may look simple. After all, you only need a few ingredients: cacao beans, sugar, and milk. Yet mixing them correctly to achieve a smooth, velvety texture took centuries to achieve. And it's all thanks to Swiss chocolate makers. They were the first ones to achieve a smooth, sweet, creamy chocolate. But, most importantly, they invented the conching machine, the most important machine in making chocolate. We visited Favarger in Geneva, Switzerland, for a tour of its chocolate factory.

@DessertGeek 2 года назад

So I was curious about Favarger and it looks like they're a bean to bar maker, which generally means that they work directly with their farmers or through a cooperative to buy the beans at more than fair trade wages. (Likely at their size they're coordinating with the farmers directly, so I wish there was more information on that in the video!) Still, it's so neat to see how various chocolate makers approach the process of making chocolate!
