description Abstract One of the important components in making chocolate is cocoa butter because it affects the texture and melting point of the final product. The production process involves several stages, from fermentation to extraction. Therefore, cocoa butter has a high price with limited and fluctuating supply. Cocoa butter also has characteristics that are difficult to replace by other vegetable fats. However, cocoa butter substitutes can be used as an alternative as a more economical substitute. One of them is VCO, which has a high lauric acid content, can soften the texture and has the potential to be a substitute fat in chocolate products. In this study, VCO: Cocoa Butter substitution was carried out with a composition ratio of 0:100, 25:75, 50:50, 75:25, 100:0 (%wt). Chocolate making is processed by conching for 8 and 16 hours with an optimum temperature of 50 °C and processed by tempering. From the analysis results, a ratio of 25:75 (%wt) was obtained which produced chocolate characteristics in accordance with SNI 3749-2009, namely with a melting point of 33.2 °C, water content of 1.20%, ash content of 1.16%, fat content of 43.66%, protein content of 4.89%, and carbohydrate content of 49.09%. VCO tends to lower the melting point of chocolate bars.

Pembuatan cokelat diproses secara conching selama 8 dan 16 jam dengan suhu optimum 50 °Cserta diproses secara tempering. Dari hasil analisis, diperoleh perbandingan 25:75(%wt) yang menghasilkan karakteristik cokelat sesuai dengan SNI 3749-2009, yaitu dengan titik leleh 33,2 °C, kadar air 1.20%, kadar abu 1,16%, kadar lemak 43,66%, kadar protein 4,8928%, dan kadar karbohidrat 49,0872%. VCO cenderung menurunkan titik leleh pada cokelat bar. Kata kunci:Cocoa butter, Cocoa Butter Substitute, Chocolate bar,VCO
