I see, so you’re the kind of person that likes dark chocolate. Totally understand that!

I'm fond of white, dark and regular dairy milk chocolates. I used to trend more dark chocolate but there was this crunchy Cadbury Caramilk that took my fancy but they seem to have stopped and I haven't really found a chocolate to replace it. Plain old White is alright but it lacks texture and feels too sweet without something inside to complement it. I find I'm also feeling the same about regular Dairy Milk as well these days as well, so maybe I'm just getting less tolerant of pure sugar 😄
I meant any kind of white chocolate but yeah that kind has more sugar than dark and even milk chocolate. Don’t get me wrong: if any kind of chocolate’s placed in front of me I’ll eat it but I’ve been trending more towards semi-sweet or dark chocolate rather than white or milk as of late.

White chocolate shouldn’t even be allowed to be called chocolate, to be honest, I doubt it is even in the states, but it somehow gets away with it very cleverly, considering “white chocolate” is its own product. Milk chocolate is a bit (a lot :oops2:) better, but 60%+ chocolates are the best (I doubt milk chocolate can even manage 10% :oops2:)

I favour dark chocolate only for the iron content, since I have some degree of iron deficiency. Good brands find ways to balance out the flavour without sacrificing cocoa content. My favourite brand is Guylian Belgian chocolate sea shells but I also like chocolatiers who experiment with unique flavour combinations.

I like chocolate with a filling as well. My favourite are the ones with chocolate butter on the inside :manger:

Yeah about that, I find that dark chocolate with some kind of other flavor like chili or orange is really good, like these:

Yeah it’s nice when dark chocolate has some other flavoring to it. I recently tried several bars from Chuao that had pretzels and toffee, honeycomb, and one that tasted like smores. They all were delicious and they lasted me awhile, which is great! :D

Chilli tho? I'm a little afraid to try that, even though I like a lil spice in regular contexts

I think it’d be one of those flavours that sound weird but taste great :D

Can confirm. Chili and chocolate go very well together.

Been trying some different chocolate bars. I think I’ve gotten up to 70% now. I think I’ve come to love the combination of dark chocolate and orange together. :D
