Description

Our Cocoa Powder is produced in two main grades: Natural Cocoa Powder and Alkalized (Processed) Cocoa Powder, each designed to meet different culinary and industrial requirements.

Natural cocoa powder has a light brown color with a slightly acidic profile, typically ranging from pH 5.3 to 5.8, making it ideal for recipes that require baking soda. Alkalized cocoa powder, also known as processed cocoa, features a darker color, milder taste, and smoother mouthfeel, with a pH range of 6.8 to 8.1, suitable for applications requiring consistent color and reduced bitterness.

Cocoa powder is naturally rich in essential minerals including calcium, copper, magnesium, potassium, sodium, and zinc. These minerals are present in higher concentrations in cocoa powder compared to cocoa butter or liquid cocoa, making it a valuable ingredient for both flavor and nutritional value.

Our cocoa powder is widely used in bakery products, confectionery, desserts, beverages, chocolate-based products, and food manufacturing, delivering consistent quality, excellent solubility, and rich cocoa taste.
