I thought I read in a post somewhere on here that you could use the Dark Cocoa in bc to make black icing. I cannot find it anywhere. I have looked at Kroger, Wal-mart and Food Lion. Where are you guys finding yours? Thanks

I buy mine from Meijer, but I dont think they probably have them in TN. It really is a better cocoa in my opinion. I just buy the hersheys brand, but you could probably find some in a gormet food shop or maybe amazon might have it.

Oh by the way, you can just use regular cocoa to make black icing too. It just doesnt get as dark (and doesnt taste as yummy IMO) as the other. you may just have to use a tad more black coloring.

I've been having this same problem. While on vacation in Florida I picked up some Hershey's Special Dark Cocoa because I haven't seen it here at home and my husband loves everything and anything dark chocolate. I used it to make a yummy (and VERY dark without even trying) frosting for my dark chocolate cakes from scratch. (hubby won't eat BC anymore). But, I've run out and can't find it ANYWHERE. Let us know if you find it!

you can probably ask your local grocery store if they can get it in for you. A lot of them will.

You can find the Hershey's Special Dark on Amazon, 6 for about $23 I think

Food Lion finally got the Hershey's Special Dark. I ran in last night to pick up some creamer and there it was. I was so excited.
