Unsweetened Cocoa Powder Glaze

Unsweetened Cocoa Powder Glaze is a chocolate-flavored glaze made from unsweetened cocoa powder, commonly used in baking and confections to add an intense cocoa taste without added sugar. It’s typically used on cakes, donuts and pastries where a concentrated chocolate note is desired. Nutrition-wise, Unsweetened Cocoa Powder Glaze is notable for being high in fiber, providing 37g per 100g, and also contributes plant protein and several minerals such as magnesium. Because it’s unsweetened, it supplies cocoa flavor with little added sugar and contributes beneficial compounds found in cocoa. From a health perspective, this glaze delivers fiber and mineral density and contains cocoa-derived antioxidant polyphenols; however, it also contains some saturated fat from cocoa solids, so it’s most often best used in moderation as a flavoring rather than a primary ingredient.
