Blommer Black Cocoa Powder

I stumbled across Black Cocoa, the type, through random chance, and it has a VERY strong taste that suits my baking style. Note; like all unsweetened Cocoa, it is VERY bitter; plan recipes accordingly. Also; it leaves stubborn stains when spread accidentally; I found it useful to put down paper towels to limit spread. This particular package is filled right up to the brim, so the first measures out tend to be messy. Totally worth it for the depth of deep chocolate taste that results. This brand and packaging work well for me, though I have ordered other brands of black cocoa with satisfying results. If you like DARK chocolate, and bake with cocoa, I heartily recommend you try this stuff. How it would work as a beverage I can’t say, except you’s want a lot of sweetener.

This cocoa is very good, slightly less bitter which makes it seem “sweeter “

I went through the 1 pound container already and ordered the 2.5 pound. Great to use in black chocolate cake and cupcakes. I also used it to make black buttercream frosting successfully. Tastes great. My family said the cake (for a birthday) and the cupcakes (for Halloween) were decadent and delicious, some of the best they've ever tasted. My only warning would be to to sift before using as it tends to form clumps, and is a bit lumpy right out of the container.

Excellent

Before I start I just want to say I took a star off because when I opened the lid the container didn’t have a freshness/safety seal. However! I still used it lol. This cocoa powder has an incredible Oreo-like taste and it’s very black. Perfect! I used it to create a mascarpone icing for a birthday cake, and the recipe can be found on a blog called “Buttermilk by Sam”. Highly recommend.

Love this cocoa! I use for all my Oreo themed baked goods creations and get great compliments! Just the right amount of dark chocolate flavor - but delicious and smooth not bitter tasting. It is VERY dark (yes, could be considered black) - and if you have white marble counters like I do - be aware of this, lol! I always run it through a sieve into my recipes because like all cocoa, it clumps. I will have to order the larger container next time - my recent conversion trials of an Oreo brownie recipe to a vegan version - are using it up fast!

I have been drinking Beck's Criollo for a couple of years and was disaapointed that I couldn't find it anywhere over the past couple of months. I tried a couple of lighter cocoas that were just awful. One try of each and in the trash they went. Then I ordered this black cocao - and WOW! The taste is super rich, and it makes the milk in the hot chocolate taste like melted butter. All hot choc enthusiasts should try this!

This is simply the best ever. Last a long time in cupboard, stable, very decadent and tasty.
