espresso, 1.5oz shot (7g beans)
starbucks drip coffee, 8oz: 165 mg caffeine
coffee beans: 6 mg per bean (300-330 mg, from wp)

wikipedia:

caffeine metabolites:

• Paraxanthine (84%): Increases lipolysis, leading to elevated glycerol and free fatty acid levels in blood plasma.
• Theobromine (12%): Dilates blood vessels and increases urine volume
• Theophylline (4%): Relaxes smooth muscles of the bronchi, and is used to treat asthma. The therapeutic dose of theophylline, however, is many times greater than the levels attained from caffeine metabolism

43g of 45% hershey's cacao --> 31 mg caffeine (guessing 8-10g cocoa)

• this is twice what CI says for cocoa

Tea contains small amounts of theobromine and slightly higher levels of theophylline than coffee

tea also contains ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theanine

theophylline: Amounts as high as 3.7 mg/g have been reported in Criollo cocoa beans

tea: 1mg theophylline per 5oz cup black tea

cocoa: .21% caffeine, 1.9% theobromine

http://chromsci.oxfordjournals.org/content/45/5/273.full.pdf

Powder from roasted ground paste: 6.0% theobromine, .2% thoephylline, .8% caffeine

assuming that this includes the butter, as the caffeine number matches cocoa powder 2:1

so cocoa: 12% theobromine, .4% theophylline
