Bittersweet chocolate is a variety of chocolate with a cacao percentage of around seventy percent. The high cacao content makes the chocolate flavor deep and less sweet, with a slightly dry or crumbly texture. With its strong chocolate flavor and smooth texture, bittersweet is our go-to chocolate. We use it for most baked goods and desserts and for dipping and coating. Try it in our Rich Chocolate Tart, Ultimate Flourless Chocolate Cake, and Triple Chocolate Mousse Cake.

Bittersweet Chocolate Day- Another Reason to have Chocolate!

As noted, chocolates with a cocoa percentage of 70 or higher are the healthiest types. Dark chocolate is best for you because it's the least processed chocolate, which means it contains the highest percentage of flavonoid-filled cocoa bean.

Flavonoids possess a number of medicinal benefits, including anticancer, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral properties. They also have neuroprotective and cardio-protective effects. These biological activities depend upon the type of flavonoid, its (possible) mode of action, and its bioavailability.
