Conclusion on classification
Asumming that the endpoints expressed in loading rate WAF are acceptable ( as the TOC measurements cannot express actual concentrations) and are used for classification purposes and that cocoa powder is really biodegradable, then the substance is not classified as 'dangerous for the environment' under DSD/DPD and 'hazardous to the aquatic environment' under CLP.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
