If it's unsweetened cocoa (like Hershey's) there is no dairy and it's perfect for baking. Solid chocolate is a trigger for IBS due to the high fat content - cocoa powder has had the fat removed, and, as a bonus, the caffeine in chocolate is tied to the fat, so there's almost zero caffeine in cocoa powder as well.

Thus the fabulous chocolate cakes that are possible for IBS!
