 Product Description

SHILOH FARMS Cocoa Powder is all natural, roasted, and non-alkalized (meaning it is not Dutch processed). It is intense and bitter, imbuing a deep chocolate flavor to a variety of baked goods, such as brownies, cookies, and chocolate cakes. It is also well-suited for savory purposes, such as making mole sauces or adding richness to chili.

Unlike Dutch cocoa, which is alkalized to remove its natural acidity, natural cocoa powder is very strong, dark, and slightly acidic. When natural cocoa (an acid) is used in recipes calling for baking soda (an alkali), it creates a leavening action that causes the batter to rise when placed in the oven. 

How Cocoa Powder is Made: Cacao beans are harvested in large pods that are split open and then allowed to ferment, mellowing the natural bitterness of the beans. After fermentation, cacao beans are roasted and hulled to expose the cacao nibs, which are then ground to produce chocolate liquor. The chocolate liquor is then pressed to squeeze out the rich cocoa butter. Without pressing, the chocolate liquor would be greasy, fatty, and very unpleasant, even with the addition of sugar and spices. However, the pressing separates the chocolate liquor into two components: cocoa butter and cocoa solids. To produce cocoa powder, the cocoa solids are pressed again, ensuring that around 75% of the original cocoa butter has been removed and creating a substance called press cake. Finally, the press cake is dried, and then ground into cocoa powder. 

Suggestions:  
1. To ensure solubility, make a smooth paste of cocoa powder and warm water before adding other ingredients.
2. Cocoa is a suitable ingredient for use in cakes, sweets, brownies, desserts, puddings, ice cream, and chocolate coatings.

  1. Great Flavor/Color

    Posted by AOK on 14th Apr 2020

    Shiloh Farms is a great powdered cocoa with great value. The cocoa powder has a richer flavor and darker color but is natural (non-alkalized). It also dissolves well without any grittiness. I have tried a variety of brands of cocoa powders and this one is my favorite.


  2. Organic Cocoa

    Posted by rob on 16th Feb 2018

    Nice for hot chocolate but not as dark or richly flavoured as Ghirardelli Cocoa. Although the online product description states it originates from South America, no such country or place of origin is printed on the actual package.


  3. Excellent cocoa powder

    Posted by Sharon on 11th Jun 2013

    This is the only powder I have found in the retail market, that no matter how much or when I drink it (hot chocolate) It doesn't give me caffeine side effects. I have been buying it for years!


  4. Wonderful

    Posted by Joyce on 15th Dec 2011

    I love this cocoa powder. I blend with equal parts melted coconut oil and honey then pour into molds for homemade chocolate candies. I've also made a cake type donut. They also came out beautifully.
