I’ve been recently gifted by Girl Friday with a years subscription to monthly gift boxes of Amedei’s assorted products . Is this the sort of dark chocolate you use or is yours a local product ?

Ghirardelli dark was always my go to for known quality chocolate . At work I just keep a few Hersheys Dark Chocolate Bars in my locker.

Working in NYC, I have a nice selection of dark chocolates to choose from. I favor the Green & Black 85% and the Endangered Species 88% (I hate the name but the chocolate is good).

The Amedei and Ghirardelli brands are good too - just keep it over the 70% threshold or it becomes too much like milk chocolate.

The Hershey's dark chocolate has way too much sugar (21g per serving). You want to stick to under 10g per serving. When you get to the 85% cacao level, you are down to about 5g. That's the level I prefer to be at.
