My local Woolies has started selling home brand cocoa again in the box but when I looked it said it was a product of Germany. Wasn't the original Dutch? Is it the same or will it be a lesser quality?

"Dutch" is the process in which it is made. It has been treated with an alkali to neutralize its natural acidity. 
And yes, it was a Dutchman who developed the process  ;). It is made in all parts of the world, using thee "Dutching" method.

I couldn't find it in my local Woolies today, so I asked a staff member. They looked it up on the computer and said something along the lines that it wasn't on order because the tag had been deleted. He changed the computer and said that it should be in store next week.

Jen, is it a new box with a long expiry date? I've been monitoring the Woolies near my house for more than a month. Nothing! :(

I haven't bought it before BB so not sure about the packaging, it has an expiry date march 2016.
I use to only use Cadbury cocoa till I joined the forum lol. Then bought the Dutch cocoa, but can find that anymore.
Maybe if you ask at your woollies they will get it in. The box I found was at karrinyup.
