I am trying to make my own lowfat cocoa and have a recipe that calls for Dry Milk Powder and unsweetened cocoa powder. Does anyone know if there are Mexican brands of both of these items and if so where I can find them?

If you have at least seen the imported Dry Milk Powder somewhere let me know that, although a Mexican brand of both items would be far less costly.

Thanks for your assistance.

I buy my dry milk powder at Soriana, but I am sure it is available at walmart and superlake. If you want fat free, try Nestle Svelty it comes various sizes. I have also seen lactose free powder by Alpura. So you have lots of options.

I buy my unsweeten cocoa powder at Mama Coneja the abastos in Guad.

I buy my unsweetened cocoa at Gallina Feliz across the street from the abastos.
Ir is easier to love Mexico than to understand it.

I am not 100% sure, but I think I have seen cocoa powder at the little kitchen tienda next to Gossip's restaurant. I expect she will bring you some if they don't already carry it.

MtnMama is correct. Unsweetened cocoa powder is at the store next to Gossip's. I saw it there today.

I really like Svelty brand of powdered milk. It's called Svelty Total Digest. It is lactose free, supposedly has probiotics and is fat free. I get it in large green cans at Costco but you can buy it locally too.
