To get cocoa powder, cocoa beans are roasted and then the "meat" of the bean is removed from the shell in a process called winnowing. This leaves you with cocoa liqueur (not an alcohol). You then press the cocoa liqueur to remove the fat (cocoa butter) and grind it into cocoa powder... http://tinyurl.com/22vwer Chocolate is made using cocoa butter, milk (in some cases), flavours like vanilla and sugar. They are blended, conched and then tempered to produce chocolate... http://tinyurl.com/yqp9k3
