The 70% Cocoa Dark Chocolate EXCELLENCE Bar (3.5 oz) from Lindt is another high-quality dark chocolate, offering a slightly milder yet rich experience compared to the 85% cocoa variety. Here are its key features:
- Cocoa Content: 70% cocoa, making it a bittersweet chocolate. This percentage strikes a balance between the intense cocoa flavor of darker chocolates and a slightly sweeter taste, with moderate sugar content.
- Flavor Profile: With 70% cocoa, the chocolate offers a deep cocoa flavor that is rich yet smoother than higher cocoa varieties like 85%. It may have nuanced notes of fruit, coffee, and toasted nuts, depending on the specific batch and origin of the beans used.
- Texture: Lindt’s Excellence range is known for its silky-smooth texture, and this bar is no different. The chocolate has a firm snap and a smooth melt that delivers a luxurious mouthfeel.
- Health Benefits: Like other dark chocolates with high cocoa content, this bar provides antioxidants, iron, and magnesium, and it is lower in sugar than milk chocolate. It is also considered a heart-healthy option in moderation due to the benefits of dark chocolate’s flavonoids.
- Versatility: This 70% cocoa bar is perfect for those who want a rich but not overwhelmingly bitter chocolate. It’s ideal for snacking, pairing with wine, or using in baking and desserts.
This bar offers a great option for those who enjoy a balanced combination of bitterness and sweetness in their chocolate.
