Dark Chocolate tasting
Facilitator: Željko Filipin
Premise
Provided were 4 samples of chocolate of differing cocoa content: - 50% - 70% - 85% - 95%
Instructions
Željko explained that the order in which you taste each affects the perception of sweetness. Starting with 95%, if you follow up with 85% it would taste much sweeter than if you tried 85% first. It was noted that it is important to let the chocolate melt, rather than to chew it.
