Talk:Dutch process cocoa

message: Asserting that Dutch process chocolate is superior in taste seems an awful lot like relating a subjective thing as fact. Should that line not be changed to emphasize that it is an opinion (albeit a widely held one) -198.187.174.15 (talk) 20:55, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

message: As far as i know dutch cocoa powder is the right name, never heard of a distinction of chocholates, only about the distinction in the cocoa powder. Dutch cocoa powder contains about 20 percent cocoa-butter as contrary to the cheaper ordinary, or semi-skimmed cocoa powder that contains only 10 percent cocoa-butter. I know, this is personal research/primary source, sorry for that, but this should at least indicate that the article needs reliable (secondary) sources, as what the article says about the dutch cocoa containing less cocoa-butter is probably incorrect.94.21.25.82 (talk) 15:39, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

message: 1. this article seems orphaned as it is full of incorrect ideas about its alleged topic and it has not been corrected for years. 
2. the problems are already listed on this talkpage for years. everyone knows dutch COCOA POWDER, no such thing as "dutch chocholate" exists. chocholate produced in holland is just the same generic chocholate as all over the world.
3. another remarkable discrepancy that the article fails to correspond the cocoa powder distinction all over the world: theres the dutch one (20% cocoa butter content) and the other, the cheap residues that contain about half of that. while the article states theres a process of alkalization it doesnt even try to add any information about this process which should be the sole most important section desribed give that the whole article is written around the statement, that exacly this process makes dutch cocoa powder different from "neutral/unmodified/generic cocoa powder" - while noone has ever seen this "normal" cocoa powder because such product is not sold in the market. 
4. the article should be renamed "cocoa powder" and then make a distinction between the dutch, the lowered cocoa butter type, the instant (50% and up sugar content added)band only after these described might it go as far as state, that theoretically one could get a "real 100%" cocoa powder by crushing beans at home.
5. the topic of desroyed nutrient content is of high interest but should be more precise with citations.

The name article title Alkalized cocoa is more logical than Dutch process cocoa in my opinion for the following reasons:
* Alkalized cocoa was invented in the Dutchland, but is now used worldwide. For example, I just bought a package of organic cocoa powder and the text "acidity regulator (E510, potassium carbonate)" is written on it, not "Dutch process cocoa"
* Non-aklalized processed cocoa is also manufactured in Dutchland. --Bawanio (talk) 09:02, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

message: The first paragraph says Dutching reduces bitterness but the rest of the article is about pH, aka acidity or sourness.
