Abstract
A process is disclosed for removing substantially all of the theobromine normally present in cacao beans. The process includes a water extraction of cacao nibs at from about 45.degree. C. to about 55.degree. C. followed by a series of water extraction steps at from about 90.degree. C. to about 105.degree. C. Theobromine and caffeine are separated in the filtrates and the final methylxanthine extracted fraction is returned to the cacao nibs mass from which a methylxanthine extracted cacao liquor is obtained.
