deZaan celebrates 115 years of innovation with an advanced range of cocoa powders
In 1925, deZaan introduced its first black cocoa powder. One hundred years later, the producer offers one of the broadest and most advanced ranges of black and dark cocoa powders, suitable for use in cookies, cakes and biscuits, chocolate ice creams, and cereal base mixes.
The result of decades of innovation, its cocoa powders meet the highest standards for color, flavor, and performance at scale. This allows professional chefs to create products with intense flavors and colors while controlling costs. For comprehensive support, deZaan offers everything from formulation advice to supply chain clarity and flexible solutions.
One of deZaan’s goals is to champion ethical and sustainable production. Through Cocoa Compass, its ambition is to create an environmentally positive, professionalized, and quality-focused cocoa supply chain of farmers who earn a living income and whose children have access to education.
