Cocoa powder is a fine, unsweetened powder made from roasted, fermented, and dried cacao beans. It is commonly used in baking, beverages, and desserts for its rich chocolate flavor. There are two main types:
Natural Cocoa Powder – This type is light brown, slightly acidic, and has a strong, bitter chocolate taste. It is often used in recipes that require baking soda for leavening.
Dutch-Processed Cocoa Powder – Also known as alkalized cocoa, this type is treated with an alkaline solution to neutralize its acidity. It is darker, milder in flavor, and dissolves more easily in liquids. It works best with baking powder.
