Aduna Organic Super-Cacao Powder | 100% Pure Raw Cacao for Heart Health & Energy Support | Natural Vegan Source of Magnesium, Flavanols & Iron | Superfood for Hot Chocolate, Smoothies, & Baking | 275g

Purchased following the 5-star review by another who had purchased three different types of cocoa powder makes, who suggested this was the highest quality. Cocoa powder flavouring is good, if not very strong, so only a very small amount (probably a teaspoon or less) required when making a large vegan hot chocolate.Cost effectiveness versus other cocoa powders is unknown, but it's very cost effective versus "pre-made" hot chocolate sachets sold in the store, especially given only a very small amount of powder is required, and quite a lot comes in a bag. Preparation isn't too complex either, you just need to include sugar.Vegan recipe for mocha-style hot chocolate:In the cup:1) Put in less than a teaspoon's worth of decaf coffee2) Put in roughly a teaspoon's worth of cocoa powder3) Add 1 to 2 teaspoon's worth of brown sugar (raw sugar cane)4) To about less than halfway, add boiling water and stir to fully dissolve contents5) Fill to top with either hazelnut (recommended) or almond milk. Soya milk can work, but hazelnut and almond complement the flavouring far betterTest flavouring. For the next time:If too sweet, add less sugar.If too bitter, add less cocoa powder.If chocolately but unsweet, add more sugar.If coffee taste is strong or overpowering, add less coffee beans.If bland or watery, either add less boiling water, or add more cocoa or coffee beans.If too nutty, reduce milk and add more boiling water. If boiling water had been previously reduced due to lack of flavour, add more coffee beans/cocoa.You should eventually find the mixture ratio that is calibrated to your preferred tastes.

I'm new to got chocolate drinks but as a first ingredient this is good. Also used in cakes successfully

Great taste. For chocolate drink with a sweetener. Or for cooking highly recommended

This cocoa powder tastes delicious. To use in hot or cold beverages, fantastic to use for baking a tasty chocolate cake.

Why did you choose this product over others?:For Vitality Energy level:Great

Really nice - delicious in a drink and it has lot's of health benefits

It’s ok and probably better for you than the usual chocolate drink, just a bit of a faff to make. My wife has gone back to Cadburys. Worth a go though and given a decent try will probably be beneficial.

Prefer using this to grinding up a block of cacao paste. Less gritty and blends well with milk.
