What Dutch processing brings to your baking

Ways to use and flavor ideas

• Frostings and ganache: glossy, smooth finishes that hold their shine
• Dessert sauces and ganache: blends smoothly for a silky texture
• Pairing notes: try with vanilla, a pinch of salt, or espresso for enhancement

Tips for best results

• Sift before measuring to prevent lumps and ensure even color and texture
• Replace part of natural cocoa with Dutch-processed for a darker hue and smoother sweetness
