Gerbs Dutch Cocoa Powder - Dairy Free & Vegan
CANADIAN DUTCH COCOA
Dutched cocoa is darker, milder in flavor, and more dispersible than Natural Cocoa. Alkalized or “Dutch Cocoa” is produced by adding an alkali to neutralize the natural acids – this process is called “Dutching” – developed in 1828 by Coenraad Johanness van Houten, the same man who developed a hydraulic press for separating cocoa solids and cocoa butter which revolutionized the chocolate production industry. Available in Fair Trade, and from an allergen-free facility.
STORAGE OF GERBS
We strongly recommend storing in an airtight (dark colored/opaque) container in a cool, dark environment like a pantry or kitchen cabinet, away from direct exposure to sunlight or excessive heat like an oven. The amount of times you open the container and let in the harmful effects of oxygen will only increase the likelihood of rancidity; thus we encourage you to not empty more than 1 pound of product at a time. YOU CAN FREEZE IT TOO!
SAFETY IS OUR GOAL
Our goal is to give the Allergy Community relief in the battle of living with food allergies. All of our raw ingredients are processed, packaged, handled, stored, and shipped by trained staff in our family owned & operated facility in Johnston, Rhode Island on dedicated non-GMO, Vegan, and Kosher Equipment. No co-packers. No co-manufacturers. For anyone with a mild to severe food allergy or a family with one, we wish to assure you that this is why Gerbs handles all aspects of production & operation, and we are among a handful of companies in the world who can state this.
