Minecraft – Can you find cocoa beans out-of-jungle

minecraft-java-edition

Other than a jungle, where can you find cocoa beans? I'd think you could find them in dungeon chests etc, but from experience this doesn't seem to happen.

Best Answer

The only way to obtain cocoa beans in vanilla minecraft (Without spawning them in) is to:

Find them in dungeon chests (Including desert and jungle temples)

Harvest them from jungle trees

Trade for them with villagers (In older versions, cocoa beans are no longer included in the villager trade items)
