This project was conducted at the author’s residence located at Kayquit, Indang, Cavite from January to February, 1996. This project made use of the traditional method as described by Payot(1993). Twenty kilograms of dried cacao beans traditionally used in the manufacture of tabliya was procured at Kayquit, Indang, Cavite. Dried cacao were roasted in Carajay. Seed coats were separated from the nibs by cracking the seed coat followed by winnowing in a bilao or fiat basket. The cleaned cacao seeds were further roasted until dark brown cacao seeds were obtained. It was found out that after roasting and removing the foreign materials, the original 20 kgs. of dried cacao seeds was reduced to 15 kgs equivalent to 734 recovery. The seeds were then ground to a cacao paste. Sugar was added into the ground mass and the mixture was moulded into tablets. A yield of 15 dozen chocolate tablets was sold at P24.00 per dozen total production cost was P1,871.10 while total sales was P2,520.00 giving a total net income of P648.90 equivalent to 34.68% return on investment.
