Cocoa bread, a new and distinctly
palatable variation of the staff of
life, is a recent achievement of the
experimental baking laboratory of the
Bureau of Chemistry, Department of
Agriculture. and should prove popu-
lar, not only because it has a de-
cided flavor of cocoa which pleases
most palates but because it retains its
freshness longer than ordinary bread.
The preparation of cocoa bread is
not at all complicated, Any good
bread formula may be used, the only
difference being that cocoa is sub
stituted for from to 10 per cent. of
the flour and that other shortening
may be omitted since cocoa contains
about 20 per cent. of fat Sugar is
added to overcome the bitterness of
the cocoa and if equal amounts of
sugar and cocoa are used, the bread
will be neither bitter nor sweet Va
ration is given by adding raisins,
prunes, peanuts, or other fruits or
nuts Raisin cocoa rolls made ac-
cording to this formula are pleasing
variety.
Cocoa bread is dark brown, the
shade varying with the amount of
cocoa used, but aside from its color
there is little difference between its
appearance and that of ordinary
bread.
