Review: Dutch unsweetened cacao powder - I use it mostly for cakes and cookies, biscuits etc. It is so good and chocolaty I was never tempted to try another brand. Not easy to find in the UK other than on the internet so as a last minute purchase with no time for looking up French groceries on line (no doubt a bit cheaper?!?!) I was happy to find this offer on desertcart. It arrived by post in just a few days and very well packaged. It is always the excellent product I have known for years.
Review: Hot choc Supreme - The best in flavour smoothness, ease of use, and finally end-product - the supreme hot-choccie for a night-watch. Or any time. Tot of rum added doesn’t go amiss.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What are the proportions to make a cup of hot chocolate?**
A: Depends on how you like it’s strong or not. I use 2 full teaspoons for 10 oz whole milk. If skim milk or 2% maybe a little less.

**Q: What is the expiration date for this product?**
A: Hello,
the expiration date is december 18th 2023

**Q: Is this "Dutch processed" as called for in recipes?**
A: Coenraad Johannes van Houten was the chemist and chocolate maker known for the treatment of cocoa mass with alkaline salts to remove the bitter taste and make cocoa solids more water-soluble; the resulting product is still called "Dutch process chocolate".(from Wikipedia).

**Q: Is this cocoa very dark?**
A: It is 100% cocoa.
