Get the ultimate deep, rich colour for your baking with Callebaut’s Black Cocoa Powder. This premium cocoa powder is heavily alkalised (or “dutched”) to create an intensely black powder with a smooth, non-bitter taste.

🌑 Natural Deep Black – No food colouring needed!
Unlike gel colours, black cocoa won’t stain your teeth and is a fantastic natural alternative for colouring buttercream, fondant, or cake batters.

🧁 Perfect for Baking & Decorating
Ideal for black buttercream, Halloween treats, cookies, and dramatic chocolate cakes. It doesn’t have a strong chocolate flavour like regular cocoa but gives your bakes a striking finish.

⚠️ Baking Tip:
Black cocoa is neutral and won’t react with baking soda. Always use the type of cocoa your recipe calls for—swapping natural cocoa with black cocoa is usually fine, but not the other way around!

Weight: 500g
Brand: Callebaut – trusted by professional chocolatiers and bakers.

    Brilliant - Perkynana Flavour

    Very hard to get banana flavouring that really works at all in NZ, so thrilled this one works brilliantly. It has that "fake banana" flavour you get in most sweets, my ice-cream tasted like Perkynana! Used 1 tsp per litre of ice-cream, so will need to come back for more pretty soon. Also, despite it being bright yellow, I'll need to add some yellow food colouring to get it beyond the very palest of lemon. But 11/10 for doing the key job!

    Needed a treat

    Needed a treat and found the best treat for myself and the family. Didn't really want to share but the cupcakes are far too good not to share. Best cupcakes ever.
