Nidhi Singh's Answer
Cocoa liquor is when the cocoa beans are ground into a paste. The term "cocoa liquor" is used to describe finely ground cocoa beans. During grinding, the mill gets hot and the ground cocoa beans become very fine in particle size and the cocoa butter becomes liquid; in short the finely ground cocoa beans are liquid when they exit the mill. When cocoa liquor is cooled and becomes solid, it is the same as unsweetened baking chocolate. This should not be confused with chocolate liqueur which is an alcoholic beverage. Cocoa liquor has no alcoholic content.Cocoa liquor is one of the key components of chocolate. The most cocoa liquor is contained in dark chocolate with high content of cocoa products.
