Cocoa Powder 22/24% 1 kg — MIO

Cocoa Powder 22/24% MIO: the intense heart of pastry and gelato

Cocoa Powder 22/24% MIO is an alkalized cocoa with a high cocoa butter content (22/24%), designed for pastry and gelato professionals seeking deep colour, rounded aroma and perfect solubility. 1 kg bag, 10 kg carton, manufactured by Innovaction S.r.l. and distributed in Switzerland by LAPA.

What is 22/24% cocoa powder

The 22/24 figure indicates the residual cocoa butter content in the powder, between 22% and 24%: a "high-fat" cocoa, richer and smoother than low-fat cocoas (10/12%). This fat content ensures a darker colour rendering, a full flavour and better dispersion in liquids and fat-based masses. The product is alkalized (Dutch process): a treatment that reduces the natural acidity of the bean, softens astringent notes and intensifies the colour towards deep browns, ideal for professional uses where uniformity and intensity are decisive.
