Is this dutch processed cocoa powder?

Absolutely NOT. It is 100% dark chocolate cacao and very good stuff. I've been drinking it for more than 10 years, first purchasing it in expensive little cans when Mr. Scharffen and Mr. Berger were the owners. It does not taste like it has been changed since then. This is a good buy from Amazon, but you could go to Scharffenberger online and buy and try a small can to see if you like it before investing in a 4# bag.

Absolutely YES! It imparts such a wonderful deep chocolate taste to your baked goods. To get a totally amazing explanation of how to use both raw, natural cocoa powder and dutch process cocoa powder in baking, go here: http://www.joyofbaking.com/cocoa.html.

No, it is not an onyx cocoa. It's a dark brown, but a bit reddish like some other dutch cocoas.

No, I do not think it is, because it is Dutch processed which means it is alkalized. Lavado is a process where the cacao beans are washed but not fermented.

Yes - it's a powder. Ingredients: Sugar, cocoa (cocoa solids 25% minimum), salt and flavouring. Add hot milk and enjoy!

I just tasted it and it seems unsweetened. I haven't used it for baking yet so I can't really know for sure. The label says 100% pure cocoa so I am assuming it is pure cocoa without any additives...sugar or otherwise.

There's no nutritional information on the label and definitely no information on flavanoids. This is a top quality natural processed cocoa powder, so I imagine the content is pretty high; especially compared to Dutch processed cocoa powders. I don't know why your interested in flavonols or what exactly you are looking to get from a cocoa powder. I do believe Scharffen Berger to be the best quality natural processed cocoa powder currently being made and Valrhona to be the best quality Dutch processed cocoa powder.

It is a fine powder and sweet. You can make cocoa, sprinkle it on ice cream or ... They also make one that is a dark chocolate and not sweet. Our market dropped this so I buy it here.

I bought the organic Rapunzel cocoa powder in my local health food store. I did not realize, at the time, that it is non-alkaline. Later I read that when cocoa is non-alkalized it loses most of its benefits. I checked the Rapunzel label and sure enough it is non-alkalized. I'm looking for another brand now.

My pleasure to be of service ;-)BTW, since it's been 8 mos since my post, I thought I'd look at their website to see if they added the clarification that their cacao powder is not Dutch Processed, and they didn't change a thing. Oh well... I suppose they feel that their explanation of the extraction process they employ is sufficiently clear...http://www.navitasnaturals.com/products/cacao/cacao-powder.html

No, But.... Just three ingredients are listed: "SUGAR, COCOA (PROCESSED WITH ALKALI), VANILLA POWDER." -- the "But" is that is says right below the ingredients: "MANUFACTURED ON SHARED EQUIPMENT PROCESSING PEANUTS, TREE NUTS, MILK, EGGS, SOY AND WHEAT/GLUTEN."
