This majestic dutch cocoa powder is Ghirardelli's most decadent cocoa
powder available. With its remarkably bold flavor and extra dark brown
color, this cocoa powder will enhance the look, aroma, and taste of your
baked goods, beverages, and confections. Use it for cakes, muffins,
mousse, ganache, and truffles. It even enhances signature mochas, hot
chocolate bases, gelato, and chocolate ice cream bases with its
exquisite, bold chocolate flavor.
Ghirardelli uses the heart of
the cacao bean, called the nib, to create this premium dutch-processed,
nib-alkalized cocoa. The nibs are ground, pressed, and pulverized to
release their intense flavors. They are then treated with an alkali to
neutralize acids. This process gives it a darker color and a mild,
subtle flavor that complements other baking ingredients.
Customers will recognize and trust the Ghirardelli name when they see it
in your cafe, coffee shop, ice cream parlor, or restaurant. Ghirardelli
began with a young Italian chocolatier in the early 1800s and is now a
brand widely known for its rich flavors. This sense of quality is the
result of Ghirardelli's commitment to control all steps of the
chocolate-making process, from roasting the cocoa beans, to refining the
product for smoothness and well-balanced flavor. In addition, the
company understands that sustainable sourcing and knowing the origins of
the cocoa beans speaks to the quality of the finished product. No
matter what dish or drink you prepare, guests are in for a treat with
this majestic dutch cocoa powder!
