Cocoa powder is obtained from the cocoa bean. Cocoa originally, is from the Americas and is grown on West African plantations. It has been the main raw materials in the beverage and chocolate industries. Cocoa beans are hauled out of ripe cocoa pods, and sun dried to the least moisture possible. The dried cocoa beans are ground to fine powder form fit for beverages and chocolate.
The many benefits of cocoa and the emergence of the ‘’do it yourself’’ generation coupled with the fear of chemical preservatives added by the large corporations have increased the retail demand for cocoa powder, both the pure and the alkaline. Cocoa powder is useful to making home-made facial powder, chocolate, natural beverage and cakes.
Loetue (NAFDAC NO- 081065) is our popular brand of pure cocoa powder. It is approved for consumption by the National Agency for Foods, Drugs Administration and Control, an agency of the Nigerian Government responsible for regulating foods, drugs and all products used and consumed.
