Chocolate noir

Chocolate noir, commonly known as dark chocolate, is a type of chocolate characterized by a high cocoa content and minimal added ingredients like milk or sugar. It offers a rich, intense flavor with bitter and aromatic notes, emphasizing the natural qualities of cocoa beans. Typically containing more antioxidants and health benefits than milk chocolate, noir varieties range from semi-sweet to bittersweet, with origins rooted in traditional chocolate-making. Its balanced bitterness and complex flavor profile make it popular for both eating on its own and using in culinary applications.
