Cacao is a seed which consists lots of fat and has a high range variety of food products. The most famous product is chocolate. Most of people think that chocolate is the only product of Cacao but the truth is different. If you remove fat from cacao bean, at last you will have Cocoa powder.

Alkalized cocoa powder at a glance
Most consumers have lots of questions about alkalized cocoa powder and its differences with normal kind. So because of that we decided to provide some useful information on alkalized cocoa powder. Normal cocoa powder is pure and it is produced directly from cacao beans without any additive. This kind of product is a little too bitter and strong for most of tastes. So food producers may decide to try a less strong taste of cocoa in their food product and Latamarko suggests them to cater alkalized cocoa powder instead of the normal type. Unlike the normal type a certain amount of additive will be used in the production process of alkalized cocoa powder which makes its pH more alkaline. You should know that the cocoa is naturally acidic and it is the reason for its strong taste. At last the additive adjusts pH of cocoa powder in a more alkaline range. Being more alkaline, makes the taste of cocoa powder more soft and desirable. However, we should admit that some providers around the world still prefer the normal type and we respect their choice but we suggest alkalized cocoa powder to most of our clients.
