Know Your Chocolate

*Unsweetened Chocolate is pure, unadulterated cocoa, also known as bitter or baking chocolate.

*Semisweet and Dark Chocolate is pure cocoa to which sugar and other ingredients have been added. The bitterness of a particular variety depends on the percentage of pure chocolate it contains. The more pure chocolate, the more bitter it will be.

*Milk Chocolate is pure cocoa mixed with sugar and condensed milk to give it its signature rich sweetness. It’s used to make most candy bars.

*White Chocolate isn’t a true chocolate because it isn’t made from cocoa beans. But it does contain cocoa butter, which gives it its smooth, creamy texture.
