Abstract

This activity aims to improve the quality of cocoa beans and promote sustainable local chocolate production through the application of optimized roasting techniques tailored to the characteristics of locally grown tropical cocoa beans. The program was led by Prof. Wan Rosli Bin Wan Ishak from USM, accompanied by Prof. Haslina Ahmad, along with collaborators from the field of Bioactive Materials and Synthesis at UPM. The activities included the delivery of training modules entitled Enhancing Cocoa Bean Quality through Optimized Roasting Techniques for Sustainable Local Chocolate Production, demonstrations of roasting processes involving parameters such as temperature, roasting time, humidity, and variations in roasting schemes, as well as a field visit to the chocolate production house at Kampung Coklat Senare. This visit aimed to provide a deeper understanding of the production workflow, the diversity of local cocoa beans, and opportunities to strengthen supply chains based on locally sourced raw materials. The primary focus of the program was the design of energy-efficient roasting strategies with minimal environmental impact, while preserving bioactive compounds and characteristic cocoa aromas through controlled Maillard reaction pathways. The initiative emphasized technology transfer, community capacity building, and the adoption of sustainable production practices among cocoa-based micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in North Lombok. The long-term impact is expected to be reflected in improved processing efficiency, greater utilization of local resources, and more stable income opportunities for cocoa farmers and local MSME actors. The activity was conducted at Kampung Coklat Senare, Genggelang Village, North Lombok, on 21 January 2026, highlighting the importance of international–local partnerships within the context of community engagement in tropical regions.

Abstract

This community engagement activity focused on the utilization of native seaweed, particularly Kappaphycus alvarezii, as a source of bioactive compounds with the potential to enhance functional food products developed by small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Kampung Nelayan Merah Putih, Ekas Buana Village, East Lombok. The activity was conducted on 22 January 2026 and centred on the delivery of the module entitled “Exploring Kappaphycus alvarezii as a Sustainable Source of Bioactive Compounds for Functional Food Innovation.” The session was delivered directly by Prof. Wan Rosli Bin Wan Ishak, accompanied by Prof. Haslina Ahmad and collaborators from the Synthesis and Bioactive Materials research group of USM–UPM. The programme included theoretical presentations on the bioactive composition of K. alvarezii, opportunities for the sustainable utilization of processing by-products, and an introduction to the concept of algae-based functional foods tailored for coastal SMEs. Participants were also invited to visit a local seaweed production facility to gain a deeper understanding of the supply chain, raw material quality, and the potential conversion of processing waste into value-added products. The expected outcomes include enhanced technical and entrepreneurial capacities among SME actors, improved ability to design algae-based functional food products, and the strengthening of an environmentally sustainable local supply chain. The long-term impact will be assessed through improvements in production efficiency, the adoption of basic food safety and quality practices (GMP/SSOP), and the potential increase in income among coastal SME practitioners. Overall, this initiative highlights the value of international–local partnerships in advancing sustainable tropical food innovation.
