Abstract

Cangkringan Village, Sleman Regency, Yogyakarta, is a village with a large potential cocoa plantation area. However, this potential is still not optimal because most of the cocoa production from community plantations is still sold in the form of raw beans that have not been processed or fermented. This Community Service activity aims to increase the added value of local chocolate products thru the design and construction of a chocolate paste machine. The machine design process is carried out in collaboration with the Indonesian Coffee and Cocoa Research Center. This increase in the added value of cocoa beans is expected to help improve the selling price and increase the welfare of cocoa farmers in Cangkringan Village. This successfully designed and built pulping machine was handed over to representatives of the cocoa farmer group for shared use.
