I don't know, Pam, but it is the best that I've purchased. Their customer service is great, so you should get a response from them soon. Hope this helps!

I'm sorry- I've used mine up and cannot refer to the bag.. perhaps you should contact the company? best of luck.

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 is. The consistency should b different. Cocoa butter seems harder and lighter in colour

i have never ordered the can, so I can not compare. I would recommend you phone Lavazza in NYC, that is how i learned it was available on Amazon. they told me they were changing packaging..so, maybe that is all it is. Sorry I could not help more

No. This is not dutched. This is the same Natural Cocoa you'll see in most grocery stores.

The package says "100 % pure. Crushed Butter obtained from the Cacao bean....This edible pod is a stable fat....." It continues to list all the reasons this product is good for on the outside of your body. I use this for soap, lotion and salves. It has a very strong chocolate aroma. It is very hard. It is cream colored. It smells like chocolate but I have never eaten it. I tasted the dust for you. It tastes like dry oil. No chocolate flavor, just aroma.

Dear Eric... As Criollo is grown of Spanish origin, it is possible that this Silk Road Cocoa is of that variety. However, since only 5% of the Cocoa market is Criollo, I would find it not likely. This variety often has undertones of Vanilla, Tobacco, or other unique flavors. I do not find any unusual flavors in this Cocoa. I am however, very satisfied with the results and quality of this Cocoa. It is beautifully deep and dark with a fine texture. We use a lot of it for the medicinal qualities in Raw-Paleo-Vegan desserts and find it to be very effective, particularly when mixed with Ginger, Turmeric, and other stomach-calming, ailment-relieving spices. Try the traditional Spanish recipes which use Cocoa as a spice in main dishes, rather than in sugary desserts. Or use it in Raw desserts with Raw Honey.

I found this to be a very good Cocoa. The brand said Frontier so I assume it was frontier, organic and fair trade as well.

mine is not yellow...are you sure you ordered the white oil and not the one that comes with yellow/orange color/butter flavored?I have ordered two of the white oil and both are pure white, actually clear when melted...great stuff...it does not taste or smell like coconut like you think it would...it is not the same smelling stuff that you get for sun tanning! I use this for everything: cooking, skin, in my pets food...you can pay a lot more for small containers called organic or 100% pure but this is the same and a great quality and you can not beat the price...definitely NOT CRAP as someone stated. mine is not yellow...are you sure you ordered the white oil and not the one that comes with yellow/orange color/butter flavored?I have ordered two of the white oil and both are pure white, actually clear when melted...great stuff...it does not taste or smell like coconut like you think it would...it is not the same smelling stuff that you get for sun tanning!

Yes, it is the same cocoa. The Pernigotti from WS did indeed have vanilla in it. I found this online because WS didn't regularly stock and the price went up greatly. I use quite a bit of this cocoa (breakfast every morning) so I buy the 3 kilo box...even cheaper.

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

I don't know. The package doesn't look familiar, but, if I purchased it, I used it up months ago. Did I rate it? I can't remember. I'm sorry not to have more information for you. I know there are often questions about these products; one of the cacaos I am using now and liking has gotten good reviews except for one person, who tried to contact the company and ask why it tastes like Hershey's cocoa, and they didn't respond; the company, out of Arizona, also doesn't say the source. I've heard both good and bad about the "halla . . ." company--I wish you success in finding information; with cocoa it is always bewildering--I want raw, but some of the raw cacaos I have gotten have seemed full of chaff-- I don't know.

Best hot cocoa ever! They don't carry it in store anymore, but I just found it on Costco's website..it's now just under 2lbs each container..2 pack for $29.99, free shipping.

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.

The ingredient list states: Cocoa, Cocoa processed with Alkali.... It doesn't specifically list dairy...

Not that I am aware of.There is nothing stated on the label. However, on a matter this serious I would contact the manufacturer or distributor. Here is a phone number from the package- 908-531-3291. The product comes from Ecuador, so they may not know either.It is an excellent cocoa butter. I used it for candy making.

The pouch says that it is non-alkalized. From the online research I did, this is NOT dutched cocoa.

That confused me, too. I think it's the same thing and they just changed the name. The bottle is the same and the ingredients are the same. Just be sure it says, "Brunette". One of the ingredients should be cocoa or some cocoa derivative.
