Dutch Processed Cocoa Powder

Dutch Processed Cocoa Powder is a finely milled, alkalized cocoa powder commonly used in baking and chocolate-flavored drinks; the Dutch‑processing step mellows acidity and darkens the color compared with natural cocoa. It is notably rich in plant nutrients and fiber, providing about 33g of fiber per 100g, along with a substantial amount of plant protein and minerals such as magnesium, manganese and copper. Compared with non‑alkalized cocoa, Dutch‑processed powder tends to have fewer of the original cocoa polyphenols (antioxidant compounds), but it remains a nutrient‑dense baking ingredient that contributes flavor and body to recipes.
