Dutche Dark Pure Alkalized Cocoa Powder is a high-quality, unsweetened cocoa powder that is made from carefully selected cocoa beans. The beans are roasted, ground into a paste, and then treated with an alkalizing agent to reduce the acidity and enhance the flavor. This process, known as Dutching, results in a rich, smooth, and slightly less bitter cocoa powder with a deep, dark color. It is perfect for use in baking, hot chocolate, or as a flavorful addition to smoothies or other beverages. The pure alkalized cocoa powder is free from any added sugars or preservatives, making it a healthier choice for those looking to reduce their sugar intake.
