Chocolate & Cocoa

Substitutes for Chocolate Powder 50% in gelato

Chocolate Powder 50% is a sweetened dark-chocolate powder, roughly half sugar and half cocoa mass (about 50% cocoa). In gelato it delivers cocoa flavour, cocoa-butter fat, and a heavy dose of sucrose in a single dry ingredient, so it must be counted in the sugar balance rather than treated as a neutral flavouring.
