Cocoa Powder 20-22% Fat Content "Toledo" 1kg
Description
- Double the Cocoa Butter (20-22%): Standard store-bought cocoa is stripped down to 10-12% fat. Toledo retains a premium 20-22% butterfat content, keeping your cakes, brownies, and cookies moist while preventing a dry crumb.
- The "Dutch-Process" Perfection: Professionally alkalised to raise its pH, this powder completely neutralizes the harsh, bitter acidity found in natural raw cacao. The result is a smooth, rounded, and approachable chocolate flavor.
- Intense Visuals: Gives a beautiful, dark autumnal brown hue to all chocolate doughs, batters, frostings, and dustings.
- Effortless Dispersion: Because it is expertly milled and carries a higher fat ratio, it dissolves smoothly into liquids, preventing clumped pockets in ice creams, sauces, and gourmet hot chocolates.
It all comes down to luxury and moisture. Standard 10-12% cocoa powder has most of its cocoa butter pressed out, which can leave high-end bakes tasting dry. Our 20-22% Toledo powder retains double the healthy fat, resulting in a vastly superior mouthfeel, a fudgier texture, and a more intense chocolate aroma.
Because this is an alkalised (Dutch-processed) cocoa powder, its natural acidity has been neutralized. Therefore, you should use baking powder as your primary leavener. Avoid using baking soda alone unless the recipe specifically includes another acid (like buttermilk or brown sugar) to activate it.
Absolutely. While it is engineered for premium commercial baking, ice cream, and confectionery, its high-fat profile means it disperses beautifully in warm milk or water for an exceptionally decadent drink without any gritty sediment.
