Can Won tell me something about
when it is advisable 10 use cocoa and
when chocnlatep I realize that this is
a rather rich drink and ! am not
sure Just how best to make use of it,.
One Of my neiehhors says that 1t Is
folly to use cocoa when chocolate is
80 much better. Will YOU help me?
--R. s.
In the first place the principal
difference between cocoa and chocolate
is in the amount of fat. The cocoa
bean grows in rather long. narrow
pod and the outer shell is quite hard
The inner shell is thinner and the
bean which is in the pulpy tissue is the
part used for food or drink. This has
an outer coating and the actual bean
or kernel is found inside.
AS for the food value. since chocolate
contains considerable more fat than
cocoa. it Is. Of course. richer in energy.
On the other hand. just because Of
this fact it is more difficult of dises.

either with milk or part milk and
water for children For Il rather rich
beverage to he served at any festivity
such as an afternoon reception, 1t Is
quite right to use chocolate.
In discussing the food value Of both
cocoa and chocolate one of the points
most frequently brought out is that
Of the stimulating properties. While
it is quite true that there is an element
