What makes good chocolate 'good'?

A

Expert Answer

Quality chocolate contains a high percentage of cocoa solids and cocoa butter (not vegetable fat replacements), uses quality beans, proper conching (smoothing), and minimal additives. The snap when broken, smooth melt, complex flavor notes, and glossy finish indicate quality. Personal preference for origin and percentage varies.
