Product Description
Natural Cocoa Powder by Gerbs is a versatile ingredient designed for baking enthusiasts who seek to enhance the flavor of their baked goods. This product is particularly suitable for recipes that call for leavening agents, making it an essential addition to any kitchen.
Our natural cocoa powder is made from cocoa beans that have not had their acidity stripped, resulting in a lighter color and a rich chocolate flavor. This cocoa powder is specifically formulated to be paired with baking soda, as the natural acidity helps balance the metallic taste of sodium carbonate. It is ideal for traditional recipes, especially those passed down through generations, where natural cocoa was the standard choice. This product is a 4-pound package, making it perfect for both home bakers and professional chefs looking for high-quality cocoa powder.
