What is Recoa?
Recoa is a precision-fermented cocoa powder substitute crafted from sustainable, bean-free inputs — delivering the rich colour, flavour depth, and functional performance of cocoa without the supply chain volatility or allergen concerns of traditional cocoa.
Available in four variants — R1100, R3100, R5100, and R7100 — Recoa covers the full spectrum from mild natural to intense black, making it a versatile choice for chocolatiers, beverage manufacturers, bakeries, and confectionery brands alike.
Why Recoa?
Two compelling reasons to make the switch
Cost-Competitive at 1:1 Replacement
Recoa is designed as a true 1:1 drop-in replacement for conventional cocoa powder — same dosage, same process, no reformulation required. This means your cost savings start from day one.
With cocoa prices at historic highs driven by supply chain disruptions, EUDR compliance pressure, and climate volatility, Recoa offers a stable, competitively priced alternative that doesn’t compromise on flavour, colour, or functionality.
✅ Direct 1:1 substitution — no recipe changes needed
✅ Predictable pricing, independent of cocoa markets
✅ No conching or additional processing steps required
Fat & pH Customization
Recoa is available across a range of alkalization levels and pH values — from natural (pH 5.4–5.8) to very highly alkalized (pH 7.5–8.5) — giving formulators precise control over colour depth, flavour intensity, and functional behaviour.
With a consistent 10–12% fat content across all variants, Recoa integrates seamlessly into compound coatings, bakery premixes, beverage powders, and frozen dessert recipes without modifying your existing fat balances.
