Unsweetened Chocolate (or Baking Chocolate) Chocolate without sugar is exactly what its name suggests. It is a pure chocolate liquor created solely from cocoa beans that have been pulverised. Because it is not intended for standalone eating, it is sometimes known as baking chocolate.

Cocoa Powder The cocoa butter has been removed from cocoa powder, which is similarly made of 100% cacao and no sugar. Despite being highly bitter, cocoa powder is frequently used in recipes.
