Product Introduction
Cocoa powder is a finely ground powder made from roasted cocoa beans (Theobroma cacao) after cocoa butter extraction. It serves as a fundamental ingredient in chocolate products, baking, and beverages. Alkalized cocoa powder, also known as Dutch-processed cocoa powder, undergoes treatment with an alkalizing agent to neutralize acidity, producing a darker color and milder flavor. Both varieties are prized for their rich taste, distinctive color, and versatility across culinary applications.
