Product Name: Alkalised cocoa+POWDER-p1.html" target='_blank'>COCOA POWDER
This is a smooth fine cocoa powder made by alkalising of the cocoa nibs from whole cocoa beans. It is roasted in a rotating drum, milled and ground to the required fineness. These are then pressed and defatted in a high-pressure hydraulic press, and finally milled again under controlled conditions. It has characteristic cocoa flavour and a medium brown colour.
