Organic Dark Chocolate with Candied Orange
What it is
This is a small bar of organic dark chocolate. It is made with 72% cocoa solids, which gives it a rich, intense chocolate flavor. Embedded within the dark chocolate are pieces of candied orange peel. The orange peel adds a sweet and slightly chewy texture, along with a bright citrus note that complements the deep cocoa. It is a simple yet elegant confection.
How people cook with it
This chocolate is perfect for a small treat or as an addition to a cheese board.
- Enjoy as a personal indulgence.
- Serve with coffee or tea.
- Pair with aged cheeses.
- Use as a small gift.
To best enjoy this chocolate, allow it to come to room temperature for a few minutes before unwrapping. This helps the flavors and textures to fully develop. You can break off a small piece to savor slowly, letting it melt on your tongue to appreciate the interplay of the dark chocolate and the sweet, zesty candied orange. It is also a delightful addition to a small dessert platter, perhaps alongside some fresh fruit or a dollop of cream.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to milk chocolate, this dark chocolate offers a more profound cocoa taste with less sweetness. The candied orange pieces provide a distinct citrus counterpoint that is not found in plain dark chocolate. Its small size makes it ideal for a single serving.
Who it is for
This chocolate is for anyone who appreciates the sophisticated combination of dark chocolate and fruit.
How to keep the rest
To preserve the quality of the remaining chocolate, keep it in its original wrapper or an airtight container. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and strong odors. Avoid refrigerating, as this can affect the texture and cause the chocolate to bloom.
