NEW - ChefShop's Dutch Processed Unsweetened Dark Cocoa Powder (22% to 24% Cocoa Butter!)

2 Kilos - 4.4 pounds  - from Holland - Aiming for 1/2 Kilo and 1 Kilo sizes in January

New! We have spent the last 2 years looking and testing for a new ChefShop cocoa powder to replace our original recipe and venerable favorite which is no longer available.

This Deep Dark Dutch-processed dark unsweetened cocoa powder is in a class unto itself. We have removed less fat from our cocoa (22-24% fat content), which results in a more intense and immediate chocolate flavor.

This "service pack" of ChefShop cocoa powder is designed for commercial users like baristas, bakers, and gelato makers. It is sealed in a thick zip-lock style bag for production baking with a Plain Jane label. Like many of the foods and ingredients that go to the back of the house, the contents are more important than being pretty.

And price relative to quantity is also a crucial part of the commercial kitchen. So that is why we have chosen this cocoa, for the quality and consistency of product relative to the cost.

And that's what we have here in this bag of exceptional cocoa powder. The resealable bag keeps the cocoa powder fresh and it can last a good long time.

Store in a dark cool place (just remember it is there) and you are all set.

Make something good for yourself! Try mixing condensed milk, cocoa powder and melted butter together, then add crushed up Effie's biscuits. Scoop spoonfuls and roll into balls. Cover with crushed nuts; chill and then eat.




Ingredients: Cocoa processed with Alkali
Prepared and packaged on machines that may come in contact with tree nuts, eggs, milk, soy.

WOW!
I just received my first order of Pernigotti Cocoa. I have been a fan of Valharona Cocoa for years, but this may have replaced it as my Favorite! It has an incredible taste, I could smell it thru the double bagging. It is just GREAT! I would highly recommend it and for 2.2 lbs it really is quite a bargain!

Great stuff
Bought for truffle-making Christmas 2010. Wow, this is the best! I have always loved Valhrona, but glad I gave this a try. I planned to share/ gift give, as 500 truffles later, I've hardly used any......... Can't say enough great things about it. ....

Best Cocoa on the planet
I have been using this exclusively for years now. I have a 'secret' brownie recipe that I make with this cocoa, syrup made from the cocoa and only the best ingredients. Everyone goes ga-ga over them. Syrup - so easy to make - anything that calls for cocoa I use this. Sometimes I mix just a touch into my coffee from a treat. If you have not tried this yet you need to. You WILL NOT be disappointed!!!

The Top Cocoa Ever
I first discovered this cocoa at Williams-Sonoma 20 years ago.....and have been using it ever since. Of course, now I buy it in large quantities! It makes a decadent hot chocolate, and I use it in brownies and Martha Stewart's one-bowl chocolate cake recipe. Really wonderful.....

Best Unsweetened Cocoa Ever
If heaven made unsweetened cocoa, this is it. Have been using Perignotti cocoa powder for a number of years. The flavor and density of the chocolate is so delicious everything you baked is elevated. It did take me awhile to go through 2 lbs of cocoa, which is why I kept searching for it before I ran out. How happy I was to find it again….love it love it. Nothing else can compare!
