Depends. Cocoa powder may be for Hot Chocolate, it has sugar in it and not very much flavor. Baking cocoa is just chocolate and bitter.

To make chocolate you need cocoa butter (sold in health food stores), sugar, lecithin (a natural emulsifier - chocolate would be granular without this - also sold in healthfood stores), and cocoa liquor (cocoa beans that have been roasted, fermented and blended. Not necessarily a liquid. Not the same as cocoa powder). Some times milk powders and vanilla are added.
