CHOCOLATES

There are cacao plantations in China and it should therefore be possible to find good Chinese dark chocolate made in China. This chocolate made by Shanghai Golden Monkey Food Co. Ltd. in Shanghai but was purchased in Tibet a few weeks ago (thanks to Grete). It is made with ”cocoa butter substitute” instead of cocoa butter, which affects the flavor and texture. The texture and flavor is somewhat waxy. The flavor is chocolatey with a weak hint of a unpleasant extraneous flavor, possibly related to the fat mixture added. This chocolate if probably fine for cooking.
