ADM Launches New Low Roast Cocoa Liqour
UINM 3050 is made solely from Côte d’Ivoire cocoa beans processed at ADM Cocoa’s UNICAO plant in Abidjan and it joins UINM 3000 and UINM 3025 in ADM Cocoa’s range of UNICAO cocoa liquors.
Sep 13 2011 --- ADM Cocoa has launched a lightly roasted UNICAO cocoa liquor to complement its pallet of 100 percent Côte d’Ivoire bean products. Completing ADM’s existing range of medium and full roast UNICAO cocoa liquors, the premium flavour of the UINM 3050 low roast liquor can be used to create unique signature products that appeal to chocolate lovers.
“ADM Cocoa’s range of 100 percent Côte d’Ivoire bean cocoa liquors now includes low, medium and full roast varieties, bringing even more possibilities for new flavour combinations in premium chocolate products,” comments Grant Belden, trading director, cocoa liquor, butter and non-cocoa ingredients, ADM Cocoa. “The single most important factor in determining the flavour of milk and dark chocolate is the cocoa liquor, which is at the heart of creating indulgent chocolate.”
With its gentle chocolate aroma, low bitterness and enhanced bouquet, the low roast cocoa liquor is as equally suited to mild-tasting milk chocolate applications as it is to high cocoa percentage indulgent dark chocolates, offering manufactures the versatility to develop unique flavour profiles.

The Côte d’Ivoire is central to ADM Cocoa’s flagship cocoa sustainability programme: “Socially and Environmentally Responsible Agricultural Practices” (SERAP). The SERAP programme provides training and financial incentives to help cocoa farmers implement sustainable farming practices. Approximately 22,000 farmers together delivered more than 24,000 metric tons of sustainable SERAP cocoa in the Côte d’Ivoire in the 2010-2011 growing year. Coming out of this programme, UINM 3050 is available in Identity Preserved (IP), Mass Balance (MB) and certified forms, to suit manufacturers’ specific sustainability requirements.
