I give my icings, fillings, pies and puddings “that chocolaty taste” of Runkel’s without bothering to grate chocolate. Runkel’s All-Purpose Cocoa is the finest quality chocolate, already a powder, all ready to use!

You need no special recipes. Just use three level tablespoonfuls (¾ oz.) of Runkel’s All-Purpose Cocoa instead of each “square” (1 oz.) of cooking chocolate. It not only improves the flavor, but saves ¼ the cost.

Interesting Dessert Book, “The New Cocoa Cookery,” will be sent you gratis upon request.
