Rich and flavorful with a deep yet balanced bitterness, this Valrhona Guanaja 70% dark chocolate has set the standard for gourmet dark chocolate since 1986. Guanaja is the worlds first bittersweet chocolate made with 70% cacao. With low sugar and cocoa butter to mask imperfections, the heightened cacao content puts the chocolate flavor front and center, requiring chocolatiers to blend this product with absolute precision. The result is an intense, richly bitter chocolate whose flavor blossoms to reveal an aromatic range of warm notes, floral tones, and hints of nuttiness, with and exceptionally long-lingering finish. A touch of real vanilla helps to balance the bittersweet chocolates flavor. Its blend of cocoas comprises flavors typical of chocolate from Trinidad, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Ghana, Cote dIvoire, and Madagascar.
Valrhonas proprietary feve format features an oval shape with an indented center. This shape is suitable for a variety of applications, making this chocolate a versatile addition to your menu. Melt the feves down for use in chocolate sauces, cake batters, buttercream frosting, chocolate beverages, or candies and truffles, or use the melted chocolate to create molded shapes or coat fruit, nuts, and other morsels. Try roughly chopping the feves to use in chocolate chunk cookies or rich dark chocolate brownies! This Guanaja 70% cacao dark chocolate is ideal for creating gourmet molten lava cake, bourbon whiskey truffles, or extra-rich flourless chocolate cake. You can also serve one or two pieces of chocolate alongside dessert coffee as an elegant conclusion to your meals or on charcuterie boards for something slightly sweet. When pairing with wine, opt for rich reds with dark cherry notes from Bordeauxs left bank to complement the nutty and fruity chocolate, Australian Shiraz / Grenache blends to highlight the chocolates tangy and creamy nature, or a sweet, lightly sparkling Moscato dAsti to cut through the intensely dark chocolate with effervescent citrus and peach. Consider pairing this chocolate with bold, bitter, full-bodied beers like double chocolate stouts to balance the chocolates complexity and intensity or dark India pale ales to sweeten and soften the chocolates finish.
