Smooth and flavorful. This is my go-to for making dark chocolate ice cream and chocolate lava cakes. The packaging here is quite good as well (sealed foil packets inside sturdy cardboard box). Review: Best ever for hot cocoa - I used to bake, but nowadays my interest in cocoa powder is for hot cocoa, which I consume a fair amount of in the wintery months. I used to buy Droste Cocoa exclusively. Some years ago when I bought some Hershey's to compare, Droste beat Hershey's so badly I returned the Hershey's to my local supermarket for a refund, it was that terrible. After decades of nothing but Droste I decided a few years ago to try some other high end cocoa powders. I bought an 8.8 oz package of Valrhona locally and decided that I liked Droste more. I then bought a kilogram of Pernigotti through desertcart, and determined that it was superior to Droste and my absolute favorite. I have maybe 25% of that kilogram left. Recently I bought a kilogram of Callebaut cocoa powder from desertcart, decided it wasn't bad, but not as good as Pernigotti. Out of curiosity a week or so ago I again tried the Valrhona, of which I had a few ounces remaining. Lo and behold I like it far better than the Pernigotti or the Callebaut! It's far far smoother, less abrasive than the others, the experience far more pure and pleasing. It's my absolute favorite now. I don't have any Droste at the moment to compare it with, but I plan to buy a box when I visit my local grocery in a few days, however I'm pretty sure I will prefer the Valrhona and likely purchase the 3 kilogram package from desertcart. I have a formula for hot cocoa that makes it possible to prepare quickly, easily and accurately every time. I have a small digital scale (about 1 kilogram maximum) in my kitchen that I utilize rather than volume measurements when cooking, when practical to do so, which is most of the time. My formula for hot cocoa mix is this: By weight: 1 part cocoa powder 2 parts white sugar 3 parts nonfat dry milk powder I add a mere dash of salt (optional), put these in a large covered container and shake to mix it all well and store in tightly covered containers. When I want to make a cup of hot cocoa I do this: By weight: 1 part hot cocoa mix (made by the above formula) 3 parts water brought to the boiling point Stir well and enjoy. I'm finding that when using Valrhona cocoa powder the result is the most pleasing, but I find it a bit on the sweet side, so I think I'm going to modify the recipe to increase the proportion of cocoa powder. The other high end cocoa powders mentioned need more sugar to compensate for their relative harshness. By contrast, Valrhona is very mellow. - - - - Edit next day: I figured it out. Buying 3 kilograms here now is at 1/2 the price of what high quality cocoas cost locally, including Valrhona. I'm in, just ordered (I'm running out, not an option)! - - - - Edit the next day: I bought an 8.8 oz package of Droste Cocoa, just as I have done dozens of times before, to compare to Valrhona, Callebaut, Pernigotti to make sure. Yes, Valrhona is much the superior cocoa. I will never again buy a package of Droste or the others. Hopefully, the 3 kilograms I'm about to receive is as good as the little that remains of the 8.82 oz box I bought probably a couple of years ago. ## Features - Valrhona 159 Cocoa Powder 20/22% from OliveNation, Unsweetened Dutched Cocoa for Baking and Cooking, Rich Red Mahogany Color Cocoa Powder - Premium Dutch Processed Cocoa Powder with Rich, Red Mahogany Color, Finely Ground Texture, and Delicious Intense Chocolate Taste - PERFECT for Creating Delicious Chocolate Desserts, Hot Cocoa, Ganache, Decorative Dusting, Frosting, Puddings, and More - Sugar Free Cocoa Powder with 20 to 22% Cocoa Butter means that the fat and calorie content is easy to use and adapt to any baking recipe - Packaging Note: For your convenience OliveNation will sometimes re-package products into smaller size containers.

What's the average shelf life?** A: I have kept natural cocoa for close to 3 years in airtight tin in cool basement. (I ordered 50 lbs. at once.) See David Lebovitz blog. He know his stuff! http://www.davidlebovitz.com/2010/02/cocoa-powder-faq-dutch-process-v/ **Q: What are the package sizes? It shows a case. Is this one 3 kg package or three 1 kg packages or???** A: Three 1 kg packages. This looks like the original Valrhona package. There are some re-packaged cocoa powder which carries the same name, but a bit cheaper. I would avoid those as some claimed the powder was stale. **Q: Has this cocoa been repackaged, or is this the way Valrhona has packaged it?** A: The way Valrhona has packaged it. **Q: Is this the real valrhona?** A: Hello, Thank you for your message. Yes that is real 100% cocoa powder. It works good for all your baking need as well as a great hot cocoa, cocoa bombs etc. If you have any other questions please let us know. Thank you and have a great day WWC ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The price is justified by the quality. *by A***. on January 3, 2026* This is excellent cocoa powder. Smooth and flavorful.
