Details

HERSHEY'S Dutch cocoa powder adds a rich chocolate flavor to cakes, brownies, and other pastries, making it an excellent addition to any bakery! Cocoa powder comes from the cacao bean, a fully fermented bean of the tropical Theobroma cacao plant. Once cocoa butter has been extracted from the cacao beans, the remaining dry substance called cocoa powder, or simply cocoa, has a distinct, rich taste. Dutch-processed cocoa, such as this, goes one step further and is treated with an alkali to neutralize its acids. This process gives it a rich, dark color and a mild, subtle flavor that complements other baking ingredients. It is best suited for use with baking powder, rather than baking soda.

HERSHEY'S Dutch cocoa powder can be used to create irresistible chocolate cobblers, decadent chocolate sauces, or smooth chocolate frostings. Whether baking cookies, cakes, or macaroons, cocoa powder is a staple in any ice cream shop, bakery, or restaurant. Satisfy customers of all ages and chocolate-lovers among them with rich cocoa flavor! This product has 10-12% cocoa butter.

Hershey Foodservice is a leading North American manufacturer of chocolates, confections, toppings, and baking products. It all started with Milton Hershey, who began producing milk chocolate in 1905 in the town that now shares his name. Though chocolate was once a luxury for the rich, Milton Hershey helped make it more accessible and affordable for everyone, and Hershey's Foodservice products are now known the world over. Hershey, Pennsylvania is known as Chocolate Town USA and for good reason; as soon as you offer Hershey's Foodservice products at your business, your customers will recognize a brand that stands for nothing less than quality, freshness, and great taste!

Frequently Asked Questions From Customers

What is the difference between Dutch cocoa and natural cocoa?
At first glance, Dutch-processed cocoa is darker in color than natural cocoa powder. Though both types of cocoa powder are acidic, Dutch cocoa powder has been washed in a potassium solution to neutralize its acidity, which produces its dark, rich color. Natural cocoa powder tends to have a lighter color because of the acids left intact. Most cocoa powder you will find in American grocery stores is natural cocoa powder. In terms of baking, Dutch cocoa powder is often paired with baking powder, whereas natural cocoa powder is usually paired with baking soda.

Hersheys is a great product. The cocoa is dark & consistent. The 25lb box is a little awkward to manage but the price is definitely worth it.

Great value and efficient shipping. Product arrived quickly and was exactly what I expected. I’ve use this product for years, but I have never found a good price on the bolt version. More than met my expectations.

Bought this when our regular brand was out of stock and been happy with it. Not quite as dark in color but still tastes great and does an excellent job!

The best source for this product! This isn't a stock item from our food broker, but this source is more convenient. It ships faster and it is cheaper too!

I'm using this as a consumer (I eat about 100g of cocoa a day), and this is excellent! It's a little different than the brand sold in the grocery store, but I actually PREFER this to that if you can believe it. More economical and the nutrition is on-point - only 10 calories per tablespoon, while most cocoas are 20+. This is far better tasting than natural cocoas which tend to very bitter. I have ordered 25lb cases 3-4 times now from WS, and will continue to do so. Orders are always processed and shipped quickly, and I think I contacted their customer service once about a year ago with good results.
