Title:
COCOA ALBUMIN AND ITS USE IN THE PRODUCTION OF COCOA AND CHOCOLATE FLAVOUR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002042327
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A novel 2S cocoa albumin was isolated, purified and identified from cocoa beans. Enymatic hydrolysis of the protein generated a pool of flavour precursors, peptides and amin o acids that resultd in formation fo cocoa flavour upon heating with sugars. The DNA encoding a precursor cocoa 2S protein was isoltated from immature Theobroma cocoa seeds.
