Bitter cocoa powder (for dusting)
Description
Bitter cocoa powder for sprinkling is a finely ground powder with an intense, deep chocolate flavor and a distinct, pleasant bitterness, featuring a matte brown color. It has a concentrated aroma that enhances dessert notes without additional sweetness, providing an elegant finish and flavor contrast. As a low-sugar product, it delivers fiber, iron, magnesium, and polyphenols (flavonoids), which exhibit antioxidant properties and may support cardiovascular health and mood with moderate consumption. In the kitchen, it is used for dusting cakes, tiramisu, mousses, ice creams, coffee, and hot chocolate, for decorating fruits or whipped cream, as well as an addition to smoothies and baked goods when we want an intense chocolate note without sweetness. Store in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry, and dark place, away from moisture and odors; avoid the refrigerator, and use within a few months for best freshness.
