questions?
What does 20–22% cocoa butter mean?
Our powder contains 20–22% cocoa butter for a more intense chocolate flavor and more consistent results when baking.
What is alkalized cocoa powder (Dutch process)?
Alkalized cocoa powder — also known as Dutch-process cocoa — is treated with natural salts after fermentation. This softens the cocoa's acidity, creating a more intense, rounder chocolate flavor, a darker color, and better solubility in milk and water. Surfstr is a premium alkalized cocoa powder with 20–22% cocoa butter, no added sugar.
What is the difference between alkalized and natural cocoa?
Natural cocoa is more acidic and lighter in color; alkalized (Dutch-process) cocoa is milder, darker, and dissolves better. Thanks to fermentation and alkalization, Surfstr also goes further: about 10g per cup is enough, where standard cocoa needs around 15g.
Is Surfstr really sugar-free?
Surfstr is 100% pure cocoa powder with no added sugar, no sweeteners, and no flavorings. It contains only the sugar naturally present in cocoa.
Where does the cacao come from?
From West Africa, Rainforest Alliance certified. Sun-dried and traditionally fermented in banana leaves.
How much do I need per cup?
About 10g per cup—roughly 30% less than standard cocoa for the same intensity.
What certifications does Surfstr have?
The cocoa is Rainforest Alliance certified. The powder is vegan, halal, kosher, and gluten-free. Surfstr is a member of 1% for the Planet, and we publish a lab certificate (COA) for every batch.
What can I use Surfstr cocoa powder for?
For baking cakes and brownies, for hot chocolate (about 10g per cup), and for smoothies and desserts. The 20–22% cocoa butter makes baking results more consistent and more intensely chocolatey.
How do I store the cocoa powder?
Dry, cool, and protected from light — ideally in the resealable original pouch. That keeps the aroma fresh for a long time.
Where do I find the lab certificate (COA)?
