Hi everyone

I was just wondering, when it comes to using chocolate in baking is it best to use a high cocoa one (which usually has a lot of fibre) or a sugar free chocolate? I know sugar free sounds better but I've noticed this type usually has a much lower fibre count.

    Do you have a recipe you are considering?

    This might help a bit

    I have a great great sugar free chocolate that I use these days (Lily's chocolate, sweetened with stevia and erythritol). But before finding Lily's I tended to use a higher % chocolate and add my own sweetener. You have to experiment though - the texture sometimes seemed different for me.
