Functional and technological potential of by-products from the cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) production chain
Cocoa is cultivated in different regions of the world and serves as the primary ingredient in chocolate production, which generates substantial amounts of by-products. This review aims to investigate the functional and technological potential of by-products from the cocoa production chain. By-products such as cocoa husk, bean shell, pulp, and honey can be utilized as raw materials for developing value-added and innovative products due to their noteworthy composition of nutrients and bioactive compounds. The valorization of cocoa by-products can enhance the income of small-scale farmers and increase the interest of the food industry in incorporating these substrates as alternative ingredients. Thus, transforming cocoa by-products into raw materials creates opportunities for economic growth, reduces environmental impact, and promotes innovation within the food industry.
