About Cocoa, dry powder, unsweetened, HERSHEY'S European Style Cocoa

Cocoa powder is the low-fat solid that remains after roasted cocoa beans are ground into chocolate liquor and most of their cocoa butter is pressed out, leaving a deeply flavored, intensely chocolatey powder. It comes in two main styles: natural cocoa, which is light, acidic, and fruity, and Dutch-process cocoa, treated with alkali to be darker, smoother, and mellower. Unsweetened cocoa is surprisingly nutritious, rich in flavanol antioxidants, fiber, iron, magnesium, and potassium with very little sugar.

It is the backbone of countless recipes, flavoring cakes, brownies, cookies, frostings, and puddings, dusting truffles and desserts, and stirring into hot cocoa and smoothies. Choosing natural or Dutch-process matters because each reacts differently with baking soda and baking powder. Keep cocoa powder in an airtight container in a cool, dry, dark cupboard away from moisture and odors, where it stays fresh and full of flavor for a couple of years.
