What is cocoa powder?
- Cocoa powder is a fine powder with a dark brown color, uniform coloration, and a rich aroma with a hint of bitterness. Cocoa powder is produced from the seeds of the cacao fruit, which are then ground finely and is commonly used in the preparation of cakes and beverages around the world.
- People will harvest fresh cacao pods and ferment them for 2 to 9 days, after which they will be dried. Next, the cacao seeds are roasted at an appropriate temperature to enhance the aroma and then ground finely.
- When ground finely, the fat and cocoa butter will melt, allowing the pure cocoa powder to blend together to form a dark brown mass called chocolate liquor. The chocolate liquor will be pressed to extract the liquid, and the remaining part will be cooled and ground into cocoa powder.
How to distinguish pure cocoa powder from blended cocoa powder
- Pure cocoa powder will have a bright brown or reddish-brown color that is uniform and attractive. On the other hand, blended cocoa powder often has a pale, washed-out color that is uneven.
- The flavor of pure cocoa powder is strong, rich, and natural. In contrast, blended powder will have mixed scents from additives like chocolate, vanilla, or milk due to the use of flavoring agents.
- Pure cocoa powder typically has a moderate bitterness and a slight creaminess due to the cocoa butter present in the powder, and when tasted carefully, a hint of light sourness can be detected. Blended cocoa powder will be sweet due to added sugar or milk, with a very light cocoa flavor.
- When mixed with a ratio of water, pure cocoa powder will always be more liquid but with a very rich and delicious flavor. Blended powder will be slightly thicker due to the addition of cereal powder or thickening agents, so the cocoa aroma is barely detectable.
