Natural Cocoa Powder

Product Details

Cocoa powder has very little cocoa butter in it. It is mainly cocoa solids. In other words, you can think of cocoa powder as chocolate with most of its cocoa butter removed. Cocoa powder generally contains just 10 to 12% cocoa butter, while pure unsweetened chocolate contains about 55%. So, ounce for ounce, cocoa powder packs a bigger punch of chocolate flavor, because you’re getting more cocoa solids and less cocoa butter. Cocoa powder is an unsweetened powder produced by grinding cacao beans and pressing out the cocoa butter (fat).

The resulting cocoa powder is low in fat, but has an intense chocolate taste. It is most commonly used in baked goods, where it is mixed with sugar and other fats, like butter, margarine, or coconut oil.

Available in 25 kg multi-wall paper bags.
