Cocoa powder, or unsweetened cocoa is made by milling cocoa cake into powder form. Cocoa cake is the remains of chocolate liquor after most of the cocoa butter is removed. Since most of the fat has been extracted, cocoa powder is considered the least fatty form of chocolate. The powder possesses a strong to mild chocolate flavor without the texture characteristic of cocoa butter. Natural powder color ranges from light tan to brown. Some of the powders uses are evident in reduced fat and calorie recipes, chocolate milk, ice cream, chocolate flavored coatings, biscuits, syrups, and tobacco products.
