Majestic Premium Cocoa Powder, 32 oz

Dark colored, good smooth flavor, delicate, slightly floral, non acidic taste.

Has a smooth chocolatey taste thanks to the cocoa butter content. The powder mixes well in the drink with no lumps to break up and blends well, not leaving any chocolate sediment at the bottom of the cup. Its good on its own with some homo milk and heated up to a max of140°F which is perfect for bringing out the taste and creamy texture. Any more heat and it alters the taste, degrades it a little. I also added some to my coffee and it enhances the flavor with chocolatey goodness. I dont add sugar or any other type of sweetener as it literally ruins the experience and has an unpleasant aftertaste. I quit using sugar decades ago and dont miss it in the least. In fact I find that it actually ruins the flavours. The added milk provides that bit of delicate sweetness to make it just right. The alkalinity of the chocolate cuts the acid in the coffee and the blend is superb. I've found that the right temperature is needed to bring out the full flavour of beverages and that using water that's too hot for the particular drink damages delicate flavours. They all have different temp requirements, be it green tea, coffee, espresso or chocolate and I have a programmable electric kettle that heats the water to the precise temperature needed. If too hot, green tea loses it's medicinal nutrients, the chocolates flavenoids are all but wiped out, diminishing flavour and removing its medicinal effectiveness as an antinflammatory agent. As it is the alkaline mix kills half the flavenoids to start with, the trade off being the cutting of the acidic level which helps smoorh the taste and cut the bitterness. I'm eager to try out the natural chocolate powder that isn't processed with an alkaline agent, for the alternate taste experience, with all the flavenoids still present, in order to enjoy the full benefit of the antioxidants and a tangy flavour. Natural cocoa is highly beneficial for heart and cardiovascular health when used reasonably. It fights cavities, improves your skin and helps with type 2 diabetes among other things. Its also believed that it helps resist certain cancers. No wonder the Mayan kings slurped gallons of the chocolatey concoction. Apperently it helps with prostrate problems as well. But overindulgence can have its downside, so be sensible about it. The ingredients of chocolate have an aphrodisiac effect and can thus alter your mood and make you more mellow. Its amazing that there's so much goodness packed into this can of chocolate powder.

Delicious Deep flavor.. rich dark colour.. highly recommend!

I've ordered lots of different high end brand dark cocoa over the years, watching the ingredients. This is the richest, purest tasting chocolate I've ever found, I'm hooked on it now, I hope that ain't change it. Desserts turn out fantastic. Dissolves easy, had the ingredients we want, and not the ones we don't.

I got tired of paying $40-$60 to Baskin-Robbins for their ice cream roll cake, so I bought this chocolate to try making them myself. Boy was that a mistake. Now I have to make them for everyone in the family's birthday. Ghirardelli has always been one of our favorite chocolate providers and this is no exception. The flavor is tasty, and the consistency great. And it has to be good, because it is really expensive.
