About Cocoa, dry powder, hi-fat or breakfast, processed with alkali

This record describes dry cocoa powder in a high-fat or breakfast-style category that has been processed with alkali. It is a finely ground cocoa ingredient used in drinks and foods where a cocoa flavour and darker colour are desired; it is not necessarily a ready-to-drink sweetened beverage mix.

Alkali processing generally produces a less sharply acidic taste and a darker appearance than untreated cocoa powder, while the specified high-fat or breakfast category signals that it should not be generalized to ordinary low-fat cocoa powder. The powder is dry and fine, and product formulations can still vary.
