Why is black cocoa black?

Black cocoa is not colored - it is its natural color.

Of course, the black color of Oreo cookies is also due to black cocoa!

The dark color of cocoa is the result of the alkalization process - the alkalization process, in addition to neutralizing the acidity of cocoa, gives it a darker color, is also responsible for a milder taste of European cocoa compared to the American cocoa, and black cocoa is nothing more than ultra-strong cocoa with a pH of 8.
Most of the cocoa available in Europe is alkalized cocoa, or Dutch processed cocoa in English - unlike the American cocoa superbrands, because brands such as Hershey's or Nestlé wUSA make unpadded cocoa, boasting that the beans they use do not require deacidification. Dutch cocoa is not Dutch cocoa, but just alkalized cocoa, i.e. one with a pH value of 7.

The process of alka (l) isation, or Dutch-process, consists in rinsing cocoa beans with a potassium solution, as a result of which their natural acidity is neutralized - in contrast to cocoa treated in this way, which has a slightly darker color and delicate flavor devoid of bitterness and acidity, natural cocoa is made from powdered previously roasted cocoa beans, without a potassium bath.

Does black cocoa taste like 'regular' cocoa?

If you think about it carefully, traditional cocoa is a bit sour - black cocoa, i.e. the one subjected to a strong process of alkalisation, does not have this hint of sourness, but it is intensely bitter and more cocoa than the traditionally associated cocoa flavor - you can say, that cocoa bitterness covers itself and somehow dominates the taste, which we usually define as cocoa.

Is black cocoa less caloric?

The process of alkalising or 'blackening' cocoa does not affect its caloric content or nutritional profile - it has the same amount of calories, fat, protein, fiber and carbohydrates as traditional brown cocoa. Average cocoa has approx. 20% fat, and skim cocoa contains 10% -12% fat, My Body Genious black cocoa has 11% fat.
