Dutch Process Cocoa Powder and the low FODMAP diet
Dutch process cocoa powder is treated with alkalizing agents to neutralize acidity and deepen flavor. The alkalization removes tart compounds while preserving starch structure and minimal carbohydrate content. This smooth profile digests efficiently without introducing fermentation triggers or digestive challenges. Bakers prefer it for consistent color and milder taste in sensitive recipes.
