What does 22–24% mean in cocoa powder?
This percentage refers to the cocoa butter content in the powder. A higher percentage like 22–24% gives a richer flavour, darker colour and smoother texture compared to standard cocoa powders.
How is cocoa powder different from drinking chocolate?
Cocoa powder is pure ground cocoa solids with natural cocoa butter, while drinking chocolate usually contains added sugar and sometimes milk powder for sweetness.
Why do professional bakers prefer high-fat cocoa powder?
The higher cocoa butter content provides a more intense chocolate flavour, better texture in baked goods, and a richer mouthfeel in desserts and sauces.
