THE BIGGEST CHOCOLATE HAMPER EVER

The Different Types of Chocolate

Chocolate comes in different forms, tastes, shapes, and sizes. There is white chocolate, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, sweetened, unsweetened, and many many more. One of the most famous chocolate brands out there is from Dairy Milk, Reese’s, and Hershey’s that are available all around the world. What if you found out that you get your chocolate delivery at your doorstep and not just one chocolate but a whole hamper?

The most popular chocolate in the UK voted for in a recent poll is Cadbury’s Dairy Milk (which can of course be found in a number of our most popular hampers! We’ve gone into a little more detail below about the 3 most popular chocolate types in the UK. Milk, Dark and White.

Milk Chocolate

The holy grail of chocolate! The most popular kind in the world. Did you know that it only actually contains between 10 and 40 percent cacao? The rest is mainly made up of sugar and milk to create this delicious chocolate taste. This added sugar gives it a much sweeter taste.

Dark Chocolate

The taste of dark chocolate is much more bitter than that of milk chocolate. There is much less sugar and contains an emulsifier like soy lecithin to preserve the texture. There are different strengths of dark chocolate right up to 99%! Now from experience we can confirm that it is very bitter. A number of well known brands have also introduced flavours to dark chocolate.

White Chocolate

Did you know that technically white chocolate is not a chocolate at all? It contains a blend of sugar, cocoa butter, milk products, lecithin and vanilla. It contains absolutely no chocolate solids which is the reason we cannot call it a chocolate. Who remembers those awesome Milky Bars?? One of our favourites.
