Chocolate & Chai

Is chocolate powder and cacao powder the same?

Cocoa is not inferior to chocolate in any way. The opposite is true. Two primary components of chocolate are cocoa solids (from which the taste is derived) and cocoa butter (where the rich texture comes from). Unlike cocoa butter, which is mostly absent from cocoa powder, cocoa solids make up the majority of cocoa powder.
