One of the lowest calorie black cocoa powders out there, less intense flavour than other brands I’ve tried but still does the trick

I have just got this and I eagerly opened the packet. That's where the bother began. It isn't the finest of powders, it is black and it literally gets everywhere. It is the colour of Coal and it has big lumps in it like Coal. Getting it out of the packet and into a smaller container for ease of dispensing was flipping awful. As I said, this stuff gets everywhere. I don't know how it tastes yet. I don't bake with it, if I did it would need sifting and I literally couldn't be bothered with that carry on. I got it into an old Coffee jar and intend to get it out of that. I use it for the health benefits in my overnight Oats with Cinnamon and Turmeric. I can't imagine what it will resemble with this stuff in it. Now, I knew it was Black when I ordered it, so that was my fault. I'll see what it tastes like soon enough and report back on that. I feel really unfair knocking a star off because it clearly says it is Black Cocoa, but it is far from a powder and a pain in the backside to use so far.

Made several cakes with this now. No food colouring needed & a great flavour. It would be nice to have directions on the packaging as unless you understand how this particular cocoa works-you may get underwhelming results. A quick “how to use” will direct you. Basically different types of chocolate have different pH so need different carrier agents. If using this in buttercream icing, it’s best to SIEVE it into a fat (butter) & combine to emulsify. It will then give you a uniform & deep black colour. I do the same with cakes. I tried it with flood icing but not had the best success & prefer gel colouring by colourmill. Combines with whipped cream. Biscuit mix. Yet to try meringue & milkshake. Great quantity for price. Will buy again when I eventually run out! Also, it does not stain teeth after eatting!!

It's not that black its not dark enough. I have used other brands where the Cocoa powder is pretty much black and this one isn't.
