Dark Chocolate
When you want to make the tastiest, most delicious dark chocolate treats, you need to start with the best baking chocolate in the world, and lucky for you, we carry an impressive selection right here at Gourmet Food World. Whether you’re a professional chef looking for the best value, or a weekend baking warrior looking for premium ingredients, we have something for everyone. Make the best cookies, tarts, cakes and desserts you’ve ever made with our pistoles and callets, the perfect way to measure and weigh baking chocolate. We even offer whole blocks that you can chop to your liking.
The cacao content on your baking chocolate can make or break a recipe – some confections need high amounts of cacao, like 70% and above, to bake properly and to temper to perfection. We have a great array of dark bittersweet chocolate in different cacao percentages, perfect for all sorts of applications, like ganache, coverture, frosting, truffles and more. But it’s not all about the cacao content, it’s also about the flavor and the terroir. We source our chocolate for prestigious chocolatiers like Valrhona and Cacao Noel, who in turn search around the world for premium cacao varieties from places like Madagascar, Africa, and South and Central America. Each type of dark chocolate variety has a distinct flavor profile, from spicy to zesty, citrusy and floral, aromatic and intense to mild and subtle. Each will infuse your confections and treats with that particular flavor and personality and will match any chocolate creation you dream of. For an easy way to create instant dessert, we offer an array of dark chocolate cups and shells. Perfect for the caterer and hospitality industry, these ready-made vessels make creating the perfect dessert a breeze. Just fill them with ganache, mousse, ice cream or whatever your pastry creativity desires. No need to be a professional baker to make professional-looking chocolate desserts!
