Hi Terri! After doing a little research, I believe this cocoa powder is gluten-free – but we can’t speak to this definitively. If you have a serious allergy, I would recommend reaching out to the company, just to be safe. Happy baking! 🙂

For the Bensdorp, is it gluten free? It’s not listed on the bag that is it.

In reply to Debbie. Hi Debbie! We haven't tried that, but it should definitely help! Alternatively, use up what you have in hot chocolate, smoothies, and other non-baking recipes, and grab some high fat cocoa that Tessa recommends on this page just for baking :)

I have an unknown brand of Black Cocoa powder 10/12, how do I increase the fat content when baking with it? would I mix another higher fat cocoa with it?

In reply to Ellison. Hi Elly! You are correct, each cocoa discussed actually has their fat percentage next to their name in parenthesis, Hershey's is the lowest at 10%. I hope that helps

Hi there ! Great cocoa coverage ! I’m actually looking for the lowest fat cocoa powder for drinking purpose . I have heart condition and requires special dietary needs as requested by my doctor .

Would you suggest that the Hershey unsweetened brand has the lowest fat percentage ?

Thanks much
Elly

In reply to Terri C.. Hi Terri! I wouldn't suggest doing that as that would start altering the proportions and science of the recipe. It's best to stick to a recipe as close as possible. Hope that makes sense!

If you want to avoid dryness with using a less fat content cocoa, could you simply add more fat, like butter or oil to the recipe?
