Cocoa powder: is a light brown, unsweetened, pulverized powder with an intense chocolate flavor. Slightly acidic, it is best used in recipes with baking soda. Most familiar is the cocoa powder used in chocolate milk such as Yoo-hoo, or Nestle’s chocolate powder mix which also comes in strawberry. Starbucks is known to use a white chocolate powder as well. Some confectionary treats are sprinkled with cocoa powder to add a hint of chocolate or simply for visual enjoyment. A good example would be to be used as dirt for gummy worms.
