The crucial post-harvest and production steps—fermenting, drying, roasting, conching, and tempering—that shape chocolate's character.
The tactile and basic taste sensations perceived on the palate—sweetness, acidity, bitterness, saltiness, melt rate, and texture.
The Science of Indian Bean-to-Bar Chocolate
Welcome to RT Chocos, India's first chocolate blogging website and premier bean-to-bar learning academy. Founded by certified chocolate educator and recipe developer Aarti Saluja Sahni, RT Chocos is dedicated to demystifying the complex chemistry, tempering science, and formulation metrics behind craft chocolate making.
The chocolate landscape in India is undergoing a massive transformation. Craft chocolate makers are shifting away from mass-produced compound coatings to source single-origin organic cacao beans directly from estates in Kerala, Karnataka, and Tamil Nadu. At our academy, we believe that understanding the science of cacao fermentation, roasting thermodynamics, stone grinding (conching), and tempering curves is the key to creating award-winning artisan bars.
Whether you are a home baker wanting to learn how to temper chocolate, an entrepreneur looking to launch your own brand of Indian craft chocolate, or a hobbyist searching for authentic cocoa science resources, our blog and workshops provide the technical blueprints you need. We cover everything from pH levels in cocoa powder, FAT bloom versus SUGAR bloom diagnostics, and organic sugar alternatives, to hands-on tempering masterclasses in Mumbai and online.
