For baking, it can be finely chopped and added to cookies, brownies, or muffins to impart a rich chocolate flavor. Melting the chocolate carefully allows for the creation of smooth ganaches, glazes for cakes, or drizzles for desserts. It also pairs wonderfully with fruits like strawberries or raspberries, enhancing their natural sweetness with its slight bitterness.
