Alkalized cocoa powder, or Dutch Process, has a
higher PH level due to an alkali solution being added to the beans, nibs or
powder. This reduces the acidity and darkens the colour, ranging from a deep
reddish brown to nearly black. The level of acidity and colour will vary
depending on the level of alkalization. This is most commonly used in baking
with recipes that call for baking powder.
