Cocoa powder for dusting
Description
Cocoa powder for dusting is a finely ground, intensely brown powder with a distinct, slightly bitter taste and a deep chocolate aroma that adds an elegant, dry texture and an attractive color contrast to dishes. Its flavor is more concentrated than that of chocolate, with earthy and slightly tangy notes, making it an excellent complement to sweet and creamy baked goods and desserts. Nutritionally, cocoa is a source of antioxidants (flavonoids), magnesium, iron, and fiber, and in moderate amounts, it can support the circulatory system and improve mood by stimulating endorphins. In the kitchen, it is used for dusting desserts, beverages (cocoa, coffee with foam), cakes, truffles, and fruits, as well as for finishing creams and ice creams. It should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry, and dark place, away from strong odors; the product is best used within a few months to maintain its aroma.
