Best Brand Dark Chocolate?!
Replies

Green and blacks. They do a whole bunch of flavours - Mayan, extra dark, chocolate with pieces of cherry or ginger in... Delicious! It's located with the organic/ natural produce in my local store0

Ritter with whole hazelnuts! Yum0
-
OH God every time I think of hazelnuts and chocolate I think of Nutella! My weakness. LOL0
-
I love Trader Joe's Pound Plus 72% dark. YUM.0

Hershey's Special Dark Sugar Free Chocolate is the best!! It has Maltilol & Polydextrose as sweeteners (sugar alcohols), and also has all of the regular fat & protein contents that any other chocolate would have. Watch out for the amount that you consume in one day, as some people can have a reaction that causes gas, cramping, and/or diarrhea. To keep myself out of wolfing them all down, I freeze the package & take out one at a time to thaw. I found mine at CVS Pharmacy, but probably would be available at a variety of other stores, as well. I hope this helps! MJStory0

lindt 85% cocoa is great for you0

I love Lindt Dark Chocolate Truffles....I could eat an entire bag if I wasn't careful. I keep a bag in the freezer for those desperate moments.:ohwell:0
-
I think I'll buy several and do a taste test! In moderation, over several days of course!0

I love this one!!0 -
now i fancy some dark chocolate!0

Lindt - any of their dark chocolates are good, though the 85% is a bit strong for me.
The dark choc with chili is great, so is the sea salt one. I'm not a fan of their Blueberry intense - it just tasted like almonds to me, definitley no blueberry flavour that I could pick.
I've had the Dove dark squares but I think they are just sweet and well... dull. Lindt has a much finer texture
If you every see Whittakers dark chocolate, do yourself a favour and don't buy it!
(Scary that I know so much about dark chocolate!!)0 -
Just love dark chocolate - 70% and above ideally, Green & Blacks Mayan Gold (?) is my favourite I think - gently spiced orange just rounds the bitterness of the chocolate (Co-op Orange & Spice Fairtrade dark chocolate - no % given - is a reasonable substitute) But whatever chocolate takes your fancy a friend suggested breaking it up into its squares and pop it into a storage container and keep it in the freezer, makes it last longer as it slowly melts in your mouth and it's out of sight, not sitting there beckoning/calling to you every time you go to the cupboard/fridge!0

I have also heard that a little bit of salt brings out the flavor. I wonder if that is actually factual though.
Ghiradelli makes a dark chocolate with almond and sea salt that is AH-mazing.0 -
Endangered Species brand. My favorite is Black Panther - 88%. Not for everyone. The less sugar, fat and salt you eat, the more you taste the actual food - so you're more likely to enjoy really dark chocolate if you eat pretty cleanly.
That is true - a true indulgence for me is salted dark chocolate or salted dark chocolate with almonds - but I try to stick to super dark because two squares are immensely satisfying. I was referring to just general salt in your diet. Of course we need some, but too much salt just makes you want more - especially because a person becomes used to food tasting salty, and then plain or herb seasoned food doesn't taste good to them.0 -
I like Lindt, which is around 62%. Ghiradelli has something like 86% cacao.0

Trader Joe's has some dark chocolate bars that are 100 calories. They are good and 100 Calories seems like the perfect treat. I have always preferred dark chocolate to milk....on of my good habits I guess
I like Giradelli, 70 %. I tried the 80% (I think it was 80%), but it wasn't for me. A little too bitter!0
