Green & Black's Organic Cocoa 125g
Product Description
Green & Black's Organic Cocoa.
Our organic cocoa is made with the finest organic cocoa beans, grown in the shade of rainforest trees. We buy our cocoa direct from the farmers, paying them a higher price than they would receive for conventional cocoa. The beans are harvested at the perfect point of ripeness, then carefully fermented and dried to maximise the smooth, complex flavours of this delicious cocoa.
Potassium Carbonate is commonly added to cocoa powder to balance out the acidity and bring out the rich chocolatey aromas. This is often referred to as "Dutching" and has been used by chocolate makers for over 180 years.

The BEST cocoa by far
This is lovely, a great chocolate flavour. I can't abide sickly sweet hot chocolate, I'd buy this every time.

Best ever Cocoa
Do not buy any other brand of cocoa, this is the best that you can get. It gives a better flavour in Hot Cocoa and baking than any other.

Muscovado Chocolate Cakes with Cocoa Nibs and Mayan Spiced Syrup
My name is Paul A. Young and I am a cake-a-holic. I cannot imagine my life without the humble cake, whether it's for afternoon tea, a quick coffee break or a stolen hour gossiping with friends. Moist and sticky with crunchy cocoa nibs and an aromatic sweet-spiced syrup, these cakes are the perfect dessert served warm with real vanilla ice cream or cold with rooibos or Earl Grey tea.

Nigella Lawson's Budino di Cioccolato
This is chocolate pudding by another name, though somehow it sounds better in Italian. But frankly, language is irrelevant here: we're talking pure, all-encompassing bliss. When you eat it cooled, it is like chocolate satin cream and almost shocking in its pleasurable intensity. But I love it straight out of the pan, too, when it is like the best hot chocolate you've ever had, in spoonable form.

Chocolate Cupcakes
We use a devil’s food cake for our chocolate base. The cocoa powder gives the sponge a dark colour and chocolatey kick. The sponge should be light and moist, with all the ingredients well incorporated. But don’t overbeat the mixture, as the sponge will be too heavy.

Lovely
This is lovely, a nice subtle taste and organic of course. Would be excellent for hot chocolate but for a stronger taste for cake icing I will have to buy Cadbury's unfortunately.
