A bit of history about the Original dutched cocoa method and the man behind it.
Van Houten was a Dutch chemist, and in 1828 he invented a method to press cocoa. By pressing it with Alkali Van Houten separated the cocoa butter, making the matter soften up enough to produce cocoa powder. This dutching process made chocolate highly digestible which was unlike the current chocolate known at that time. This resulted in opening up a whole new market for chocolate and Van Houtens’ vision of making the rich taste of cocoa accessible to everyone, was the very beginning of chocolate mass production.
