Baking soda is an alkaline compound that can only be separated chemically.Baking powder however is a mixture of baking soda and an inert starch, usually cornstarch. Cornstarch absorbs moisture in the baking powder, prolonging shelf life and preventing premature reactions in the baking soda. Baking soda and cornstarch can be separated using conventional means, as it is not a compound.

Baking soda is required to leaven the baked product. Either baking soda or baking powder would need to be included in the batter regardless of the use of cocoa powder.
