MOQ: 1 container

Cocoa Cake

Semi-pressed cake from butter extraction — for drinks, baking and feed.

After part of the butter is pressed out of cocoa liquor, the remaining solids form press cake — milled into powder for beverages and bakery, or used directly in feed compounding.

Supplied in food-grade bags for container shipment, with residual butter content and fineness agreed per order.

Minimum order: 1 shipping container. We handle bulk orders only. Please contact us to confirm the appropriate container size, product loading capacity, availability, and shipping arrangements.

Background & commercial significance

Press cake is as old as the cocoa press itself: once butter became valuable for chocolate and cosmetics, the leftover cake became the world’s cocoa powder — the base of drinking chocolate, bakery mixes and compound coatings.

Common uses & applications
