Ghirardelli Chocolate Chocolate Recipes

Chocolate is wonderful alone but it can become a true culinary experience when savored with different foods and beverages. The range of flavors that complement chocolate is amazing! Some combinations are classic—coffee, red wine, almonds and caramel with chocolate are a few tried-and-true pairings. Others are more unexpected, such as salty snacks or favorite fruits. It’s fun to experiment with taste profiles and figure out what combinations you like best.

Matchmaking Principles
Complementary Pairings: Choose food and beverages that harmonize with the flavor of chocolate

Contrasting Pairings: Opposites can attract...bring out flavor and textures through counterpoint

To get you started, we’ve come up with some suggestions. But don’t be limited by our choices—go ahead and be daring and creative! The best chocolate pairing is the one YOU like best!
