CFI Cocoa Powder Standard is a food grade cocoa powder with a smooth, rich flavour and a warm dark colour, suited to everyday baking and hot cocoa recipes. It is a straightforward, versatile cocoa ingredient for confectionery, cakes, desserts, and drinks. This is a pure cocoa powder ingredient, not a sweetened instant chocolate mix. It is a practical choice when you want a balanced cocoa profile that works across a wide range of recipes.

♡ Why we love it: This is the kind of reliable cocoa powder that fits easily into everyday baking and pantry use. It gives you rich chocolate flavour without overcomplicating the recipe, which makes it a lovely all-rounder for both bakes and warming drinks.

CFI Cocoa powder?

The use of the CFI acronym in the product description, referring, I assume, to Cape Food Ingredients, is misleading, as CFI usually refers to Cocoa and Forests Initiative. Is this product ratified by the Cocoa and Forests Initiative?

Hi Gustav,

Thank you for your feedback.

We appreciate you bringing this to our attention.

To clarify, CFI in the product name refers to the Cape Food Ingredients brand and is not intended to refer to the Cocoa & Forests Initiative. This abbreviation is applied across our website to all Cape Food Ingredients products.

That said, we can confirm that, as per Cape Food Ingredients, this cocoa powder is produced in conformance with the Rainforest Alliance Sustainable Agriculture Standard.

We understand how the abbreviation could be interpreted differently and appreciate you taking the time to point this out.
All the best,
Essentially Natural Team
