Pairing Chocolate

WWC’s Guidelines to Pairing Chocolate

Chocolate Aromas like Fine Wine. Explore this guide to pairing chocolate with food & drinks.

Depending on the cocoa bean varietal, region of growth & production process, chocolate can and most likely will have a completely different taste.

Depending on the origin, some chocolates pair better with some food and drink than others.
