"I like dark chocolate but not more than 70%. Can't you just use it in cooking, make hot chocolate drinks wit it or bin it?"
I might try it in a hot chocolate drink but I think it might need sugar to make it palatable. I like 75% cocoa chocolate but this sooooo bitter |

" that stuff is not nice!
Anybody like it? Anybody got any ideas of how to use it up?"
Love it but most can’t eat it like that.
Use it to make anything chocolate. Truffles, ganache, low carb brownies...anything that requires chocolate can have that. A couple of squares stirred into a gravy is divine. |

It’s got no sugar in it. Anything below that percentage has sugar. Don’t be afraid of aspartame, the scaremongering was started by the sugar industry. |

Yeah, I knew it had no sugar I just didn't realise that it was quite that bitter  |

"cocoa... Send it here I eat every day as part of a smoothie
It's nice in coffee if you like it Arabic style... A little earthy and gritty"

"I only like chocolate over 80% cocoa
I'd never seen 100% in any shop. The very lovely LisaB45 found a bar & posted it to me
Oh god, it was heavenly "
Do you like it? I found it very bitter on the tongue, not pleasant at all.
Montezuma sell it plain and with sea salt. |

Use it in spag bol or lasagne
Trust me it works really well"
I'm probably going to be making a bolognese sauce or a ragu in the week. I think I'll try that and possibly low carb brownies |

Love it
I don't have a sweet tooth
Choice of dessert, I usually opt for cheese
Pretty sure, this one was from Montezuma too |

I don't have a very sweet tooth, especially since I've had to restrict carbs a bit but this was unpalatable to me.
This one was from Marks. Luckily I bought an 85% bar too  |

Hiya, yes it was Montezuma, and yes it is delish! Word of warning..just have one square at a time, let it melt in your mouth, and drink lots of water with it  |
