About Chocolate en polvo
Chocolate en Polvo is a powdered cocoa product commonly used in desserts, beverages, and baking. Typically originating from Latin American cuisine, it is made from ground cocoa beans after removing most of the cocoa butter. It often contains additional ingredients like sugar and sometimes milk powder or flavorings, depending on the variety. Unsweetened versions are rich in antioxidants, including flavonoids, which support heart health and have anti-inflammatory properties. Cocoa powder is also a source of essential minerals such as magnesium, potassium, and iron. However, certain types of Chocolate en Polvo may have high levels of added sugar, reducing its nutritional benefits and potentially contributing to weight gain or blood sugar spikes. For a healthier option, opt for pure, unsweetened cocoa powder and moderate its use in recipes to enjoy its rich flavor without overindulging in less nutritious additives.
