About this deal

White chocolate: 1/2 chocolate takes approximately 45 seconds to melt on high heat. Heat in 15-second intervals instead of 20. To put all these numbers into context, every item in our dark chocolate collection contains at least 70% cocoa, making our 70% Dark Chocolate Batons ‘bittersweet’. This percentage lets the cocoa bean’s rich and satisfying notes shine through and highlights the flavour subtleties that come with different types of cocoa beans. At 70% cocoa solids, chocolate has a deep and indulgent cocoa flavour profile without being too intense. This blind taste test proved that sometimes go-to brands are our go-to’s for a reason. Such is the case with iconic Nestle Toll House Chocolate Chips. White chocolate contains no cocoa solids at all. It gets its delicate flavour from cocoa butter instead, making it the sweetest of all chocolate types. At the other end of the scale, dark chocolate tends to have the highest levels of cocoa. To be considered dark, chocolate must have at least 35% cocoa solids. This is why you need a bowl that’ll cover the pot’s opening entirely for the double boiler method. That way, the steam can’t get in.

The range of ‘sweetness’ in semi-sweet chocolate varies greatly from bar to bar. Alongside sugar percentages, the amount of cocoa solids in a chocolate bar can determine whether it is considered semi-sweet. Ultimately, the higher the cocoa content, the more bitter the flavour. As well as being a great option for baking chocolatey goods, semi-sweet chocolate also makes an excellent treat on its own. With so many variations, you’re sure to find a bar that appeals to your personal tastes. How to store it Before our team even tasted these chips, many testers were oohing and aahing. Josh Rink in the Test Kitchen had this to say: “This chip is the prettiest to look at: nicely shaped, dark color and absolutely no flaws.”

How We Tested

Note: chocolate will continue to melt from the residual heat in the bowl. So, stir it well between intervals and stop microwaving when just a few lumps are left. With a cocoa percentage of 35 to 65%, semi-sweet is actually the sweetest of the dark choc brigade.

Flavor: As always, flavor is the category that matters most. A semisweet chocolate chip should walk the line between milk and dark chocolate. Rich cocoa flavor (which can naturally include vanilla, coffee or even fruity notes) should be present—nothing artificial.Next up, we have bittersweet dark chocolate, which has a cocoa solid content ranging between 65 and 80%. Looking for the perfect balance of sweetness and cocoa depth? Read on to learn all about semi-sweet chocolate. You know that these Nestle chips are so much more than picture-perfect morsels, though. These chips have a deep, rich chocolate flavor with hints of creaminess that push this chip to the slightly more milk chocolate end of the semisweet spectrum. There are no off-tastes or artificial notes here—just smooth, delicious chocolate. The stove is my preferred method for melting chocolate chips. It’s slow but results in beautifully glossy chocolate. Originally, chocolate chips were made of semi-sweet chocolate, but today there are many flavors. These include bittersweet, peanut butter, butterscotch, mint chocolate, white chocolate, dark chocolate, milk chocolate, and white and dark swirled chips.

If you’re dairy intolerant, you can still enjoy the creamy richness of ‘milk’ chocolate with our Free-from Batons for Milk Chocolate Lovers. With 45% cocoa solids, you get a real depth of flavour and, because we use rice flour to replace the milk, these batons create a luxuriously smooth finish. Produced in a dedicated allergen-free space, you can be sure there are no traces of dairy, gluten, nuts or wheat. These batons are vegan friendly, too! How to use semi-sweet chocolate These chips gained high marks for their deep chocolate flavor; a taste reminiscent of the dark chocolates in your favorite box of Valentine’s Day candy. You won’t get a lot of sweetness in these chips, but there are some tasty vanilla notes. And if you’re not quite sure which is your favourite kind of chocolate, why not try a little of each? Our Everything H Box and Everything Sleekster offer some of our best-selling recipes to suit every mood. So, if you ask me how to melt white chocolate chips, I’ll always recommend the double boiler method.Stiamo lavorando attivamente per trovare una soluzione.
