What bakers say
Based on 125 verified reviews
It doesn't taste like coffee at all in the final product, but it beefs up the dark chocolate flavor.
Tracy
It also adds a richness and a depth of chocolate flavor to my chocolate donuts and brownies (don't tell my kids there is coffee in their dessert).
OK
I added 2 tsp of this espresso powder to the batter and it was delicious! It was a lot easier than making a cup of coffee.
Casey
I'm not much of a baker, but I do enjoy making hot cocoa for my family. This 'secret ingredient' is a must for my recipe.

We've got answers
How does espresso powder enhance chocolate flavor?
Espresso powder works like magic with chocolate - it doesn't make your desserts taste like coffee, but rather deepens and intensifies the chocolate flavor. The compounds in coffee enhance the natural notes in chocolate, creating a richer, more complex taste experience. Just a teaspoon can transform good chocolate desserts into unforgettable ones, without anyone detecting the coffee itself.
How much espresso powder should I add to chocolate recipes?
For most chocolate cakes, brownies, and cookies, we recommend 1-2 teaspoons per recipe. Start with less if you're new to using it - you'll be amazed how even a small amount enhances chocolate's depth. For more intense chocolate desserts like flourless chocolate cake or dark chocolate truffles, you can use up to a tablespoon for remarkable richness without adding coffee flavor.
Is this the same as instant coffee?
While they may look similar, our espresso powder is specifically crafted for baking - it's more concentrated, has a richer flavor profile, and dissolves more completely than instant coffee. It's made from 100% coffee beans that are brewed and dried to an ultra-fine consistency perfect for incorporating into recipes without grittiness.
Is your espresso powder gluten-free?
Yes! Our espresso powder is tested and verified gluten-free per FDA standards (<20ppm). While it is processed in a facility that also handles wheat products, we implement strict protocols and testing to ensure gluten levels remain well below FDA requirements. We provide this transparency about our production environment while maintaining rigorous quality standards, making this powder suitable for most gluten-sensitive bakers.
Does your espresso powder contain caffeine?
Yes, our espresso powder contains approximately 70mg of caffeine per teaspoon. Since most recipes call for 1-2 teaspoons distributed throughout the entire dish, the caffeine per serving is typically minimal. However, if you're particularly sensitive to caffeine or baking for someone who is, you may want to consider this when deciding how much to use or when enjoying your chocolate treats in the evening.
