The difference between natural cocoa powder and alkalized cocoa
powder is:
• Taste
Natural cocoa powder has a more acidic and rich taste, while
alkalized cocoa powder has a milder taste.
• Color
Natural cocoa powder has a lighter color, while alkalized cocoa
powder has a darker color.
• Texture
Natural cocoa powder has a softer and more flexible texture,
while alkalized cocoa powder is slightly drier.
• Nutritional content
Natural cocoa powder has a higher antioxidant content.
• Use
Natural cocoa powder is better suited for recipes that require a strong chocolate flavor, such as brownies or chocolate cakes. Alkali cocoa powder is better suited for recipes that require a milder chocolate flavor, such as chocolate ice cream or hot chocolate.
Alkali cocoa powder or Dutch processed cocoa is produced from the
process of processing cocoa with alkalizing agents, such as potassium
bicarbonate, potassium carbonate, or ammonium bicarbonate. This
process aims to reduce the natural acidity of cocoa and improve its
solubility.
