please I want to know how cocoa powder taste, if it is salty, sugary, or whatever.


Also, can I take the cocoa powder raw? like lick it raw?

Slightly bitter.

Like coffee, pure cocoa powder is
bitter to taste.

You need to add more milk & sugar to
enjoy its natural goodness & high protein
content.

Regular cocoa drinks like ovaltine™ and
Bournvita™ only contain about 20% cocoa,
while about 70% is just malted grains powder.
and then some small sugar & milk.

In foreign countries, cocoa powder is very
expensive.

Pure cocoa powder has a slightly bitter taste.
Possibly the one you bought was sweetened.
Normally they should indicate if it is plain or sweetened
Amel Susan pure cocoa powder is the one I use

Oluji Cocoa is the best 100%
locally produced cocoa powder for now.

High protein & allows you control
the sugar in your drink.

I presently have some. why will you want to taste it raw?
here is how I prepare mine for breakfast;
*get cocoa from either from the farmer or get it while it's still fresh,
*cut them open, dry the seed for some days,
* grind the dried seed into fine powder,
*whenever you need to use, just fetch a table spoon full of coca powder,
*pour it into a hot cup of water, and keep it stirring,
*add your original cow milk(from Fulani women) keep stirring.
*that's all.




you can take it with banana.
