Natural Cocoa Powder (Scharffen Berger)

The only American chocolate company founded in the last fifty years, Scharffen Berger has returned to the basics of chocolate making. By using a blend with a large number of bean varieties and appellations, they produce chocolate with dense, complex fruitiness and a long softly acidic finish. Above all, its taste is of cocoa beans and the places they grow. Scharffen Berger Natural Cocoa Powder has the flavor of rich, dark chocolate. Nothing is added to the exceptional cocoa — no milk or alkali (the chemical in Dutch-process cocoa). Scharffen Berger hand-selects ripe, well fermented cocoa beans from tropical regions around the equator, which are then roasted, blended, ground, and pressed into this delicious powder.
