CERTIFIED ORGANIC COCOA POWDER

This organic cocoa powder is certified fair trade.

It is a STH AMERICAN processed unsweetened cocoa powder.

It gives a full rich chocolate flavour to baked goods. It also makes a wonderful hot chocolate.

To make this unsweetened cocoa power, cocoa beans are blended,

much like coffee beans or wine grapes, and processing begins with

fermentation to reduce bitterness. The beans are then removed from

the pods, dried and roasted. The roasted beans are cracked to reach

the heart or nib, which is finely ground into what’s known as chocolate liquor,

a thick liquid of cocoa butter and cocoa solids. The butter is then removed

and the solids pressed and pulverized into a powder.

COUNTRY OF ORIGIN COLUMBIA/BRAZIL
