Product Introduction
Cocoa Powder is produced from fermented, roasted and pressed cocoa beans. It is a premium natural food ingredient with a rich chocolate aroma, deep brown color and smooth mouthfeel. Two main types are available: Natural Cocoa Powder (non-alkalized, bright reddish-brown color, fruity acidic note) and Dutch Processed Cocoa Powder (alkalized, dark brown to blackish color, milder and rounder flavor). It is widely used in bakery, beverage, confectionery, ice cream and dairy applications, providing color, flavor and structure.
