Theobroma cacao seed pod or capsule (AAA battery for scale) harvested from the Tucker greenhouse Cacao tree on June 9th, 2017

Seeds inside of the pod encased in whitish pulp

I just placed the seeds in water and plan to let them soak for a week or more.  Next step is to cure the seeds in a dry hot place, then roast them, then grind them to make pure cocoa powder…..stay tuned!
