What Flavors Go Well With Chocolate?
ByWhen baking or working with chocolate, what are the best flavor combination? Chocolate goes very well in these combination:
- Fruity chocolate pairings include Chocolate & Raspberry, Cherry, banana, apricot, coconut, pear or orange. However, be forewarned that chocolate with orange (though fabulous!) is a distinctive taste. It is more well-known in Britain than in North America.
- Nutty chocolate pairings include Chocolate & Chestnut, Hazelnut, Almond, Walnut, Peanut, Peanut Butter, and Pecan. Chestnut and Hazelnut are often used with chocolate in Northern Italy. Pecan is often combined with caramel and chocolate.
- Other fun things to combine with chocolate includ honey, coffee, mint, meringue, cocoa nibs, spices such as ginger or cinnamon, liqueurs, marshmallows, toffee, caramel, and even lavender.
