Cocoa powder alkalized 22–24%, Bensdorp, 25 kg, 100033-793

Alkalized Cocoa Powder by Bensdorp (22–24% fat) This is a premium-quality cocoa powder featuring a moderate brown color and an intense chocolate aroma. Thanks to the alkalization process (alkali treatment), the powder offers improved solubility and a neutral acidity level, resulting in a smooth, well-rounded flavor without the sharp acidity typical of natural cocoa. High fat content (22–24%) Delivers a deep flavor, a “buttery” texture, and excellent stability in the fat phase. Ultra-fine milling Ensures a perfectly smooth texture without graininess and minimizes sedimentation in beverages. Thermal stability Maintains its color and aroma during baking and freezing processes. Interaction with leavening agents Due to its neutral pH, it does not react with baking soda; therefore, the use of baking powder is recommended in baked goods. Applications: Baking: sponge cakes, brownies, cookies (provides a dark, even color). Hot beverages: cocoa drinks and hot chocolate (dissolves quickly, creates a velvety texture). Confectionery: fillings, pralines, and chocolate compounds. Creams and mousses: blends easily with dairy and fat bases without forming lumps. Ice cream: delivers stable color and an intense chocolate profile even at low temperatures.
