One summer in Argao, I saw some parts of the process of making tableya. During the Gabii sa Kabilin 2013, I was lucky to witness a demonstration of the process of making tableya traditionally.
The photo below shows the plant source.

When the cacao fruit ripens, you have them roasted.

The roasted cacao is placed in the grinder and the grinder expresses a chocolate colored product which is then molded into round finished products.

The final product is the round tableya you see packaged in plastic. You can now make your favorite champorado or tsokolate which you may pair with puto maya.
