What is it about / Product description

Biova Organic Cocoa is a finely ground, roasted cocoa powder from controlled organic cultivation with a strongly reduced fat content of 10–12%. The beans come from Uganda and the Congo and are carefully selected and processed.

Thanks to the strong de-oiling, the cocoa powder dissolves well in liquids and is ideal for precise dosing of aroma and colour. Gentle roasting supports a full-bodied, clear cocoa profile and makes the organic cocoa highly versatile in professional kitchens.

Use the de-oiled cocoa powder for hot chocolate, desserts, pastries or as an aromatic ingredient in patisserie. Biova Organic Cocoa also adds an intense, finely tart cocoa note to muesli, shakes or savoury sauces.

Origin

The cocoa beans for this powder come from Uganda and the Congo, regions with a tropical climate and fertile soils. These conditions promote a pronounced aroma and consistent quality of the raw cocoa.

Cultivation / Production / Harvest

The cocoa is grown according to organic guidelines, harvested by hand and then fermented and dried. After roasting, the beans are ground and strongly de-oiled before the fine powder is packed for Biova.

Special features

The strongly de-oiled cocoa powder with a fat content of 10–12% is particularly free-flowing and easy to dose. It is suitable for applications where an intense cocoa flavour with reduced fat content is required.

Differences in origin and processing

Cocoa beans from Uganda often bring fruity notes, while cocoa from the Congo tends to be robust and earthy. The combination and targeted roasting by Biova result in a harmoniously balanced aroma profile.

Taste & aroma

The powder has an intense roasted cocoa aroma with subtle tart and slightly nutty nuances. In taste, Biova Organic Cocoa is full-bodied, chocolatey and clear, without excessive bitterness.

• For preparing hot chocolate, cocoa drinks and shakes
