If you're baking and the recipe calls for unsweetened cocoa, don't substitute. Even if you reduce the sugar, it won't be cocoa-y enough and potentially won't bake properly. Believe it or not, there is not very much cocoa in ready-to-drink cocoa.

pure cocoa is just that
Check the ingredients usually they will say if sugar is added.
The popular ratio to add sugar is one to one.
example: one cup cocoa add one cup sugar.
If your recipe calls for an equal amount of sugar then you add regular cocoa or unsweetened ( same thing)
There is however different quality's of cocoa I like to use fryers Cocoa for baking.
Good luck

Are you talking about cocoa mix that you add to milk or hot water?
Otherwise cocoa and unsweetened cocoa are the same thing.

If you use cocoa instead of unsweetend cocoa, you will have to modify the amount of sugar in your recipe, so it is not too sweet. That is all...
