Measuring 25g of cocoa powder without a scale
No scale? 25 g of cocoa powder is about 0.29 cup, or roughly 5 tablespoons using standard US measuring cups and spoons. Spoon it in and level off the top instead of scooping, which packs in extra.
At 25 g of cocoa powder (about 0.29 US cups), you're in single-bake territory: a modest tray of brownies, one round of chocolate cupcakes, or a batch of about a dozen cookies. It's roughly three tablespoons heaped, so a kitchen scale beats a measuring cup here, where a few grams swing the chocolate intensity noticeably. This is also the typical dusting-and-flavoring amount for a small mug cake or a single-layer loaf rather than a full celebration cake.
