Frequently Asked Questions
Salted chocolate is dark chocolate made with a higher percentage of cocoa solids, less sugar than milk chocolate and finally added salt - usually sea salt, flaked salt or pink Himalayan salt.
Salt on brownies and chocolate adds complexity to the flavor and enhances the sweet vs. savory contrast. Salt can make a treat more satisfying than a regular unsalted one by triggering a more wholesome flavour response.
The most discerning choco-holics think salt makes dark chocolate taste better, yes. See it's part science and part salivation; salt reduces your tongue's taste receptor activity specifically for bitter compounds, making dark chocolate taste smoother and less harsh than it would taste on its own. At the same time, salt ions will actually wake up other taste bud regions, promoting a more complex and full-mouth flavour. Maybe the science can explain why this bar is always, always our best-selling chocolate.
