Cocoa powder

November 19, 2009 • Hello. I am currently out of the country and unable to respond to comments and e-mails. Rest assured, however, that future posts have been scheduled so new recipes will go live almost everyday during my absence. I'll be back soon with lots of stories and photos. Ciao for now! ~ Connie

Hershey’s cocoa powder

Although Ghirardelli is far better, it isn’t as widely available and it’s really too expensive. I grew up with Hershey’s cocoa — not for baking, mind you, because no one baked in my family, but as a breakfast beverage. When I started taking an interest in baking, I chose Hershey’s cocoa powder because I love its dark and rich quality. I’ve experimented with other brands (Ricoa sucks for baking) but always went back to Hershey’s.

    An inexpensive but satisfactory alternative is Bensdorp Cocoa. Other Malaysian-made cocoa powders (like JB Cocoa Sdn.) are also recommended.
