More Information
Summary:Provided are roasted cacao beans with high total polyphenol content and reduced bitterness and the like, and a method for roasting raw cacao beans. Roasted cacao beans are obtained by roasting raw cacao beans in a state in which the pressure has been reduced below atmospheric pressure by heating for a prescribed period using microwaves so that the bean surface temperature reaches a temperature in the range of 50-90° C. The microwave heating time is preferably in the range of five to ten minutes.
