Kakao ciemne
Description
Dark cocoa powder is a fine, intensely brown powder with a distinct, bitter, and slightly tart flavor, featuring notes of roasted cocoa mass. It has a matte and uniform appearance, and its aroma is rich, earthy, and reminiscent of dark chocolate, which adds depth of flavor to dishes without excessive sweetness. It is rich in antioxidants (flavonoids), fiber, magnesium, and iron, while having a relatively low sugar content in its unsweetened version, which supports cardiovascular functions, reduces inflammation, and improves mood and concentration. In the kitchen, it works well in cakes, brownies, creams, hot chocolate, smoothies, cold desserts, as well as in savory sauces like mole and marinades. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry, and dark place, away from strong odors and moisture; for best freshness, use within a year of opening.
