What is meant by non-alkalised cacao powder?

Non-alkalised cacao powder is cacao that has not been treated with an alkalising agent (a food-grade alkaline solution), a process known as Dutch processing. Alkalisation is commonly used to reduce cacao's natural acidity, resulting in a darker colour and a milder chocolate flavour.

Since Satopradhan Vegan Cacao Powder is non-alkalised, it retains its naturally rich chocolate flavour, earthy aroma, natural brown colour, and authentic cacao character. It is simply made by roasting, pressing, and finely grinding organic cacao beans—without the additional alkalisation step.
