High Quality Chocolate
If you want to be sure that you are buying good quality chocolate the first thing you want to look for is 50 to 70 per cent cocoa solids in the contents. This should be listed on the wrapper. Cheap chocolate usually contains about 10 per cent. Another thing to look at is the sugar content. High sugar content in chocolate is a good indicator of bad chocolate. Good quality chocolate will usually contain about 30 per cent sugar. Also, try to avoid chocolates with vegetable fat and artificial flavors.
