What is non-alkalized cocoa powder?

You may have come across the terms natural cocoa and Dutch cocoa. This is a difference in the processing process of cocoa powder. Non-alkalized (natural) cocoa powder has not undergone the alkalization process, i.e. it has not been treated with alkaline substances to reduce acidity. It thus retains its original light color, distinctive flavor and all valuable substances.

• Natural (non-alkalized) cocoa: Lighter brown color and rich flavor and aroma. It does not contain any added substances. Thanks to gentle processing, all the beneficial antioxidants and minerals that cocoa naturally contains remain in it.

• Alkalized (Dutch) cocoa: Darker color and less pronounced taste due to the addition of acidity regulators, such as potassium carbonate. Alkalization neutralizes acidity and improves solubility, but unfortunately also destroys a large part of the antioxidants and other beneficial substances in cocoa. Most cocoa from supermarkets is just alkalized.

Why is natural cocoa better? 

Our cocoa powder is non-alkalized, made gently from high-quality beans. Thanks to this, it has a distinct taste and all the substances beneficial to the body are fully preserved. Compared to regular store-bought cocoa, this natural cocoa will surprise you with its rich taste with light fruity notes.

• Distinct taste and aroma: The intense chocolate taste of real cocoa as nature created it.

• More nutrients: Natural cocoa retains the maximum of beneficial substances. Cocoa is rightly considered a superfood full of magnesium, iron and other nutrients.

• Encourages a good mood: Cocoa powder contains substances that stimulate the secretion of endorphins (happiness hormones). With every cup of cocoa, you will not only enjoy a delicious taste, but also a little extra joy.

• Pure natural composition: 100% cocoa, no added sugars, aromas or preservatives. The powder is not colored or flavored in any way - the lighter color and distinct taste are proof of natural origin and quality.

Tips for using our cocoa powder

• You can prepare traditional hot cocoa simply by stirring cocoa powder in warm milk with a little sugar or honey. You can also add spices. Cocoa will warm you up on cold days and give you energy and a good mood for the whole day.

• Add cocoa powder to the dough when baking cakes, cupcakes, cookies, brownies or muffins. It will give them a chocolate flavor and aroma. The light color of the powder is okay, it will slightly color the dessert and give it a great taste.

• Stir a teaspoon of cocoa into oatmeal, semolina porridge, yogurt or smoothie. Great with banana, nuts and a little honey.

• Use cocoa powder in unbaked desserts too – sprinkle it on tiramisu or chia pudding, wrap homemade date or raisin balls or even chocolate truffles in it.
