Dark chocolate bar is crafted from roasted cacao beans, sugar, and sometimes a touch of vanilla or emulsifier. With its roots in Mesoamerican cuisine, dark chocolate has long been valued for its rich, slightly bitter flavor. Typically containing 70% or more cacao, it is less sweet than milk chocolate and rich in antioxidants, such as flavonoids, which may support heart health and improve blood flow. It also provides minerals like iron, magnesium, and zinc. However, dark chocolate is calorie-dense and often contains added sugar and fat, albeit in smaller amounts compared to its sweeter counterparts. To enjoy its benefits without overindulging, moderation is key. When choosing a dark chocolate bar, opt for varieties with minimal additives and higher cacao content for maximum nutritional value.
