Alkalized Cocoa Powder 10-12% · Sweden

Cocoa Powder is in the form of a brown powder with a characteristic bittersweet taste. Cocoa Powder is made by removing the cocoa butter from the ground cocoa solids. The remaining solids are then finely ground to produce cocoa powder. Cocoa Powder is hygroscopic and has anti-inflammatory properties due to its content of antioxidants – polyphenols and flavonols. It is also rich in vitamins and minerals. When combined with baking soda, it acts as a leavening agent. Our natural cocoa powder comes from Ghana, the Ivory Coast and the Dominican Republic.
