Properties:
Cocoa powder is made from cocoa beans through fermentation, coarse crushing, peeling and degreasing. Cocoa powder is divided into high, medium and low fat cocoa powder according to the fat content; according to the different processing methods, it is divided into natural powder and alkalized powder. Cocoa powder has a strong cocoa aroma and can be used in high-end chocolate, beverages, milk, ice cream, candy, cakes and other cocoa-containing foods.
Application
Natural cocoa powder is mostly used in chocolate production.
Natural cocoa powder is light brown cocoa powder produced without adding any additives during the processing of cocoa beans into cocoa powder;
Alkalizing powder with a higher PH value is mostly used in beverages.
Alkalized cocoa powder is added with edible alkali during the processing of cocoa beans to achieve the purpose of adjusting the pH value. At the same time, the color of cocoa powder is also deepened, and the aroma is much stronger than that of natural cocoa powder.
