Yes you can substitute Drinking Chocolate for Cocoa Powder in cakes and puddings just remember to add a little less sugar than the recipe asks for as the Drinking Chocolate is sweetened .... Another tip in making Chocolate Sponges/Cakes/Muffins is to replace the milk with Chocolate flavoured milk or even Banana or Strawberry milk

Yes, you can get away with that substitution in a pinch.

The exact substitution is 1 ounce of unsweetened chocolate = 1 tablespoon of butter (or shortening) plus 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder.

Yes, as baking cocoa is just cocoa for cooking. The only difference between the two products is that baking cocoa has no sweetener.

Baking cocoa has more of the fat in it. You may need to adjust the recipe fat content.

Baking Chocolate, or rich-flavored powdered hot-chocolate mix.

To an extent. But cocoa powder is very bitter, and it will not give the exact same taste or texture to the cake are regular chocolate would.
