Bensdorp 22/24 Fat Dutched Cocoa Powder from OliveNation - 32 ounces

Have bought this twice and continue to look for it due to quality. The chocolate quality, taste, fat content make chocolate baked goods wonderful! With the rising price and scarcity of high-quality dutched cocoa, I have laid a stash away so I don’t run out.

I was searching for at least a 20% fat content in a dutch process cocoa. There are many right around 20% and then I found Bensdorp 22-24%. I looked at the 5 star reviews and photos of the Bensdorp cocoa in order to assess if this was the one for me. I saw that the color was so rich looking compared to the other brands and that the reviewers had given Bensdorp the highest ratings, so I gave it a try. After opening the package, the aroma jumped right out at me and the color was gorgeous. Went to work making a chocolate layer cake with a chocolate buttercream using less sugar in the buttercream and I used salted butter. A bailey's irish cream mousse for a filling and I had made one of the best cake's we had ever tasted! Even better than the local gourmet cake bakery offers. The cake was so tender, moist and rich with chocolate flavor that it was to die for. And the buttercream with Bensdorp blew us away. Even my neighbors, whom I gave slices to, called or texted me to say that they had never had a cake as delicious as this one. I was told the cake part could stand on it's own but the filling and frosting sent this cake into the stratosphere of flavor. Bensdorp makes the finest dutch process cocoa on the market and I am a customer for life and hope to turn other's into Bensdorp customers. This high fat cocoa is hands down, bar none, the best cocoa I have ever tasted! Do yourself and your cocoa products a great favor, get some right away!

Delicious cocoa at a wonderful price. Way cheaper than buying it at the grocery store, and I'll have enough for a long, long time. I'm planning to store an extra bag in my basement pantry so it keeps for a good while.

I've ordered this a couple times now and am very pleased. It's always perfect and delicious! I love that it's 22-24% cocoa fat.

This has a great cocoa flavor that’s balanced with just the right amount of cocoa butter to give it a rich texture especially when making hot chocolates. One caveat, though: I found heating it with milk over the stovetop for a few minutes to be easier on the stomach than mixing it with warm or hot milk.Through trial and error, I learned that allowing it to simmer for at least a few minutes helps with not only digestion but flavor as well. If you have the time, let it sit for an hour to overnight in the fridge to give the cocoa flavor a chance to fully bloom. Doing so also helps you use less sweetener as the sweetness seems to be more pronounced after a resting period.

This cocoa is amazing and cheaper than some many others with subpar products.I use this in my own mud/wtr recipe and it’s is the best product I’ve tried yet for this.Very rich in flavor and adjusted the recipe to use LESS because it has such a rich flavor and texture.

I didn't know there is such a huge difference when it comes to dutched cocoa powder. I got it when it was on sale and with prime shipping and it lasted me a long time. More importantly, it completely elevated my baking projects so much that the recipients can't get enough of anything I make with it. Everybody noticed the difference. I use it in mirror chocolate glaze, chocolate mousse, brownies, chocolate cakes, entremets, yogurt cake, tiramisu... you name it. It delivers consistent performance, intensity and quality. You will not regret it!

I use it to reduce my consumption of acidic coffee (acid hurts my tummy). I make chocolate/mushroom powder, chcolate/cinnamon, and mocha. I’ve also used it t make puddings. It’s fantastic. Exactly what I hoped for. A rich, smooth dark chocolate taste without near as much acidity. It’s not the least expensive, but 2 lbs of it for almost drinks lasts me about 4-5 months. So the price is fine for me.
