Description

Callebaut 10/12 Natural is a non alkalized cocoa powder with 10 to 12% cocoa butter, packed as four 4 pound bags in a 16 pound case. It is the classic American baking cocoa: light brown, naturally acidic, and the right partner for any recipe that leans on baking soda for its lift.

Without alkalizing, the cocoa keeps its native pH of 5.0 to 6.1 and its bright, fruity, slightly sharp chocolate flavor, the kind that reads as pure cocoa in a devil's food cake, a red velvet, or a classic brownie. The low fat content means the powder carries flavor without adding richness, so it works where you want chocolate taste but control over fat: gelato and sorbet bases, meringues and macarons, chiffon and angel food, dry mixes, and rubs or coatings. In batter, its acidity reacts with baking soda to give a tender, open crumb and a lighter brown color than a Dutch process cocoa.

Callebaut Extra Brute Cocoa Powder is the alkalized, high fat alternative with a deep red color and rounder flavor, also sold in a 13.2 Lbs case. From Cacao Noel, Black Cocoa Powder goes to the far end of alkalizing for a near black color, and Cocoa-Sec Humidity Proof Cocoa Powder is a dusting cocoa that won't melt or streak on moist surfaces.

Instructions

Application
  • Sift with the dry ingredients for cakes, brownies, cookies, and muffins. Natural cocoa is acidic, so pair it with baking soda for leavening unless the recipe says otherwise.
  • Whisk into gelato, sorbet, and ice cream bases, or into hot liquid for sauces and drinks, to dissolve the powder fully before freezing or serving.
  • Fold into meringue, macaron, and chiffon batters where a low fat cocoa keeps the structure light.
Storage
  • Store in a clean, dry, odor free area at 12 to 20°C (54 to 68°F) with relative humidity below 70%.
  • Keep the bag tightly closed between uses; cocoa powder absorbs moisture and odors readily.
