Black Cocoa Powder
Equagold SKU: blackcocoa
Black cocoa powder is simply a cocoa powder that has been heavily dutched or alkalised, it has a smoother non-bitter taste but does not taste like chocolate as a normal cocoa would.
As the name suggests, black cocoa powder is much darker in colour than natural cocoa powder is – it’s extremely black.
This super black colour is achieved by heavier alkalizing, and no food colours have been used to create it. This means that black cocoa powder is an amazing natural colouring agent. You’ll be able to achieve a deep black colour for Buttercream or Cake Batter, that wont stain your teeth unlike Gel colouring can.
When baking with Black cocoa powder, the main thing you need to remember is you can’t swap natural cocoa powder with black cocoa powder. Normal cocoa powder can be acidic (natural) or neutral (dutched), so always stick with the type of cocoa called for in that recipe. You can easily swap natural cocoa powder for black cocoa powder, but doing the other way around can result in a flat cake and sunken cupcakes. Black cocoa powder (as well as normal dutch cocoa powder) won’t react with baking soda to help your cake rise.

HEAR FROM OUR CUSTOMERS
"We didn't give the team at Coast Cakes a huge amount of notice, but they were able to make us a beautiful, quality, fruit cake with traditional marzipan/royal icing. Decorated tastefully too. Our parents were thrilled with their 60th Anniversary Cake."
"My birthday cake felt like a star performer, sparkling under the party lights and making me grin every time I glanced its way. Coast Cakes created a one of a kind, gold leaf masterpiece that looked absolutely fabulous on the table. They went the extra mile, from the elegant finish to delivering it right to the venue, which made everything feel extra special. A cake made for 80 guests disappeared in record time, which says everything about how completely delicious it was. I was also so grateful that it was gluten free, so even the most careful eaters could join in the joy and savour a slice. Coast Cakes helped make my celebration feel glamorous, joyful, and very well fed! Highly recommended for anyone who wants a cake that tastes as wonderful as it looks."
"Best gluten free cupcakes ever."
