Details

HERSHEY'S natural cocoa powder adds a rich chocolate flavor to cakes, brownies, and other pastries, making it an excellent addition to any bakery! Cocoa powder comes from the cacao bean, a fully fermented bean of the tropical Theobroma cacao plant. Once cocoa butter has been extracted from the cacao beans, the remaining dry substance called cocoa powder, or simply cocoa, has a distinct taste. Commonly used in many confections, natural cocoa powder can help to create an endless variety of chocolate-flavored treats. It has a light brown color and a soft, floury texture. It is best suited for use with baking soda, rather than baking powder, when baking.

HERSHEY'S natural cocoa powder can be used to create irresistible chocolate cobblers, decadent chocolate sauces, or smooth chocolate frostings. Add milk and marshmallows, and warm your customers up with a cup of frothy, creamy hot chocolate. Whether baking cookies, cakes, or macaroons, cocoa powder is a staple in any ice cream shop, bakery, or restaurant. Satisfy customers of all ages, and your chocolate-lovers among them, with this rich cocoa flavor!

Hershey Foodservice is a leading North American manufacturer of chocolates, confections, toppings, and baking products. It all started with Milton Hershey, who began producing milk chocolate in 1905 in the town that now shares his name. Though chocolate was once a luxury for the rich, Milton Hershey helped make it more accessible and affordable for everyone, and Hershey's Foodservice products are now known the world over. Hershey, Pennsylvania is known as Chocolate Town USA and for good reason; as soon as you offer Hershey's Foodservice products at your business, your customers will recognize a brand that stands for nothing less than quality, freshness, and great taste!

Attention CA Residents:

Customer questions about this product

What is the difference between Dutch cocoa and natural cocoa?

At first glance, Dutch-processed cocoa is darker in color than natural cocoa powder. Though both types of cocoa powder are acidic, Dutch cocoa powder has been washed in a potassium solution to neutralize its acidity, which produces its dark, rich color. Natural cocoa powder tends to have a lighter color because of the acids left intact. Most cocoa powder you will find in American grocery stores is natural cocoa powder. In terms of baking, Dutch cocoa powder is often paired with baking powder, whereas natural cocoa powder is usually paired with baking soda.

I have always been a big fan of HERSHEY’S! I just made HERSHEY’S rich chocolate cheesecake and it turned out so good! Definitely don’t skip the chocolate wafer base - it pulled the cake together. I finished off by dusting it with coco powder. It was quick and simple to make.

Great value and efficient shipping. Product arrived quickly and was exactly what I expected. I’ve use this product for years, but I have never found a good price on the bolt version. More than met my expectations.

Bought this when our regular brand was out of stock and been happy with it. Not quite as dark in color but still tastes great and does an excellent job!

The best source for this product! This isn't a stock item from our food broker, but this source is more convenient. It ships faster and it is cheaper too!

I use this cocoa powder to make my chocolate buttercream as well as my Smores Pie. They both always turn out great with no tiny clumps of cocoa powder.

I'm using this as a consumer (I eat about 100g of cocoa a day), and this is excellent! It's a little different than the brand sold in the grocery store, but I actually PREFER this to that if you can believe it. More economical and the nutrition is on-point - only 10 calories per tablespoon, while most cocoas are 20+. This is far better tasting than natural cocoas which tend to very bitter. I have ordered 25lb cases 3-4 times now from WS, and will continue to do so. Orders are always processed and shipped quickly, and I think I contacted their customer service once about a year ago with good results.

This cocoa is amazing! It is super dark and rich, and makes our treats so decadent and tasty! It was pretty lumpy...but it's totally worth sifting! BEST COCOA EVER!

Hershey's natural cocoa powder is fantastic for making chocolate milk shakes with. It has a natural tasting chocolatey flavor and does not taste too artificial.

This is the best baking cocoa that I have ever found. I bake the most delicious goodies with this! You just can't beat Hershey's chocolate in the USA. Good value for your money too. Strongly recommend for anyone looking to bake some of the richest chocolate flavored goodies.

The best cocoa powder we've found. Hershey's products helps with so many of our cupcakes and cakes we produce. Probably would never use another brand.

I was surprised to get this in a bag with a zip type for a closure, but it worked although it was a bit awkward to dump into a container without kind of making a mess. Still it is less than buying it from other sources.

Gave this 5 stars based on the product itself. This ships in a cardboard box that is lined with a plastic bag. Can be quite messy but otherwise pleased with the value.
