About Bitter chocolate

Bitter chocolate, also known as unsweetened or dark chocolate, contains a high percentage of cocoa solids, typically 70% or more, and little to no added sugar. Originating from cacao beans harvested in regions like Central and South America, it has played a central role in traditional cuisines and rituals for centuries. Rich in antioxidants such as flavonoids, bitter chocolate is celebrated for its potential heart health benefits, aiding in improved blood flow and reduced inflammation. It also contains magnesium, iron, and fiber. However, its strong, unsweetened flavor can make it less appealing to some, and overconsumption may lead to unbalanced calorie intake due to its fat content. Despite its healthy components, moderation is key. Bitter chocolate pairs well with desserts, savory dishes, or enjoyed on its own by those who appreciate its robust, complex taste.
