Fat content, and why it matters
Fat content varies between each type of cacao powder. A high fat content creates a more rounded mouthfeel and less astringent flavours. A low fat content means the natural bitterness and fruit flavours of the cacao have a much stronger presence, with a lower level of sweetness. This powder has a very low fat percentage of 10-12%, which is quite uncommon among cacao powders. As such, the cacao flavour and natural bitterness will be more present.
