When I discovered a chocolate as a child I was immediately hooked up. I mean I wanted to have chocolate treats for breakfast, lunch and dinner. But my mother wouldn't let me of course. I love all types of chocolate and I enjoy every moment eating it. One time my mother tried to make her own type of chocolate but it wasn't that good. The art of making different types of chocolate treats is probably best left to the professionals.
However, any baker who has a family member who loves the addictive candy will attest that the dream of making the perfect chocolate creation is a dream that few have mastered. The art of eating chocolate is a skill easily mastered by people everywhere. It takes little more than an initial exposure to the popular sweet to acquire a taste for it.
There are different types of chocolate and a sophisticated palate knows the good from the bad. Professional and novice confection enthusiasts know that even the least sophisticated palate will detect if the wrong type of chocolate is used. Chocolate comes in many forms: unsweetened, semi-sweet, bittersweet, milk chocolate and white chocolate. For those who are up to the challenge, here are different types of chocolate that are appropriate for different creations.
Baking chocolate is typically used for making such classic treats as cakes, brownies and cookies.
This type of chocolate has a distinctively chalky taste and texture in comparison to the other types of chocolate. However, it is ideal for baking these kinds of desserts because it works great together with other ingredients that provide smooth texture like eggs and butter. The baking chocolate is designed exclusively for baking but it isn’t one of the types of chocolate used for eating in its pure state. You don’t want to eat it alone.
Cocoa powder is one of the types of chocolate used for recipes that result in frostings and sauces. The popular form of the sweet treat can commonly be found in drink mixes. The dry powder is usually mixed with either hot or cold milk to make cocoa beverages that remain favorites for children and adults alike. Cocoa is sweet enough by it self but you can add some sugar if you like.
White chocolate is not really chocolate at all because it contains no cocoa.
However, it is included in the different types of chocolate. The white form of the treat has the texture and consistency of the dark version but the basic ingredient, cocoa is missing from this version. White chocolate is ivory-colored (white chocolate made with vegetable fat is white-colored) and is rich and creamy. It's sweet and subtle flavor complements other ingredients in baking.
The various types of chocolate mentioned here are a just a few available for eating, drinking and baking needs. With a little experimentation and innovation in the kitchen, you may develop a new type of chocolate to share with the world.
I hope you will do better than my mom and that you will develop the type of chocolate that you will like and enjoy .
