Alkalized cocoa powder is produced by treating natural cocoa with alkali solutions (normally using potassium carbonate) to neutralize acidity, enhance color, and improve dispersibility. In the food industry, it provides rich chocolate flavor without sour notes, excellent suspension in liquids, and balanced pH for recipes not requiring leavening agents.
Baked goods: Delivers deep chocolate color and smooth flavor in cakes, brownies, and cookies without activating baking soda, maintaining tender crumb and preventing bitter aftertaste.
Beverages: Suspends perfectly in hot chocolate, mochas, and chocolate milk without grittiness or sedimentation, providing velvety mouthfeel and consistent color.
Ice cream and confectionery: Colors and flavors frozen desserts and chocolate coatings with heat-stable pigmentation that resists fading during freezing or tempering.
Dry mixes: Blends evenly in cake mixes, pudding powders, and instant desserts without clumping, ensuring uniform chocolate distribution in finished products.
Fillings and spreads: Provides stable chocolate intensity in bakery fillings, cookie creams, and hazelnut spreads with reduced acidity for smoother texture.
In cosmetics, colors lipsticks and eyeshadows; in personal care, acts as mild exfoliant in scrubs; in animal feed, flavors pet treats.
