Chocolate There is nothing any better than a good piece of chocolate. Its rich, its creamy, its smooth, and it makes us feel so-o-o-o good for a few moments of course, that is; until the guilt of the calories kick in. Chocolate happens to be one of my favorite sweets. The wonderful creamy milk chocolate, bittersweet chocolate, white chocolate, or even my personal favorite a silky dark chocolate, the choices are hard. I sat down this weekend to really think about, and compare the differences. I compared my two favorite types of chocolate, milk chocolate, and dark chocolate.

The higher the percentage of the chocolate, because of the cocoa and less milk fats it contains, the more expensive the chocolate will become. This is where we get the different types of milk chocolates, such as the great Hershey Kisses, or the wonderful creamy Ice-Cube. They are both different types of milk chocolates. A milk chocolate is just that, cocoa, some kind of milk fats, and sugar. It may have from 15% to 35% true cocoa in it to make this type of chocolate. The dark chocolate, on the other hand is a strong, somewhat bitter, deep chocolate flavor, a lower amount of sugar and milk fats, and more cocoa butter, and flavor enhancers such as vanilla, chili peppers, orange and mint.

The Dark chocolate not only tastes better it is healthier for you by far. After my comparison I would have to say by far my favorite has to be the 70% Ghirardelli Dark Chocolate, but don’t let me stop you; you be the judge. Have some fun, take some time out of your busy schedule, sit back and enjoy a taste test for your self.
