Cacao Barry Chocolate Powder 1KG

🍫 Product Overview

• Product: Cacao Barry Chocolate Powder 34% — a dutched (alkalized) cocoa powder containing approximately 6.6% fat, tailored for beverage preparations, dessert sauces, and baking mixes

• Packaging: Commonly sold in 1 kg bags; also available in smaller formats, depending on supplier availability (some listing size at 1.2 kg including packaging)

• Price in Malaysia: Typically between RM92 to RM117 per kg, depending on retailer and stock

🧪 Technical Specifications & Usage

• Type: Dutched (alkalized) cocoa powder, which reduces acidity and enhances its deep color and mellow, chocolatey taste

• Fat Content: ~6.6% fat, providing a rounded cocoa flavor without excessive dryness

• Ideal Uses: Ideal for drinking chocolate, milkshakes, dessert sauces, baking grinds for cakes or cookies—not a high-fat application cocoa like for dark ganache. Good for decorating and mixing into beverages

✅ Benefits & Considerations

• Consistent Quality: Backed by Barry Callebaut, ensuring globally consistent standards and ethical sourcing

• Flavor & Texture: Dutched process smooths out acidity and provides richer, darker color—preferred in professional kitchens and cafés

• Nutritionally: Like many cocoa powders, it’s a source of minerals such as iron and magnesium; note that alkalization reduces flavonoid content compared to natural cocoa

Note: Global cocoa shortages and inflation have impacted retail prices—typical price range in Malaysia for cocoa powder is RM45–60/kg, with premium products like Cacao Barry often at the higher end
