Chocolate without cocoa butter
Cocoa producers and critical consumers are up in arms about the European Parliament s changes to the rules for making chocolate. By the end of 2001, confectioners all over the European Union will be allowed to substitute cocoa butter partly with cheaper vegetal fats. These measures are expected to force down the demand for cocoa, and hence the market price, and mar the taste of chocolate. A study from the International Cocoa Organisation showed that the demand in Côte d Ivoire, an important producer, will fall by 14 %. Since cocoa is a perennial crop, supply cannot be reduced immediately to adjust to lower demand, and this will suppress the world market price by about 5%.
