It came shipped with ice packs to keep it nice and cool, thiswould be especially handy during warmer months. Also the packaging in itself isvery nice. The package is re-sealable to keep it fresh. Very easy to open andseals very well. The smell upon opening is awesome so you will want to openand close it several times!I cannot believe how finely and evenly this chocolate is grated. When grating myown that is always an issue. This takes all the hard work out of using gratedchocolate. I love to bake and I find grated chocolate to combine so well withrecipes. Since it is so finely grated it melts really fast. No more in and out of themicrowave forever and tons of stirring,. I only had to microwave it twice, stirringin between. We made brownies to start with this chocolate and they turned outso divine. They had a deep rich chocolate taste and were super moist. I love thevery subtle hints of orange and cinnamon. It really just adds another depth offlavor.This chocolate will really come in handy this holiday season.

This a very rich chocolate. When making hot chocolate it is 1 to 1. In other words for 1/2 cup of chocolate you mix it with 1/2 cup of hot water. The proceeds go to Williamsburg VA to keep our history alive.

Infused with 8 spices like anise and cinnamon, along with vanilla and orange flavors, this fast-melting grated chocolate is a unique flavor experience. You can use it for hot chocolates, cakes, ice cream, or any other chocolate treat.The first night I received this chocolate, I used it to make a cup of hot chocolate following the easy recipe found on the American Heritage Chocolate website. The chocolate melted quickly and evenly into the milk. The aroma was spicy and comforting. I could really taste the spices blended into the chocolate and the bitterness of the 57% cacao was perfectly balanced. The red pepper adds just a pop of heat as well.I haven’t tried it in baked goods yet, but I suspect the spices will still come through nicely after baking.American Heritage Chocolate Finely Grated Chocolate offers way more flavor than just traditional dark chocolate and is a great choice to add a twist to chocolate items.

So what's betterthan a delicious homemade recipe for dark chocolate covered espresso beansthat are not only amazing but are also totally Keto friendly?This American Heritage Chocolate Finely Grated Chocolate is absolutely perfectfor my dark chocolate espresso bean recipe. The finely grated chocolate meltedso easy and smooth in just a matter of seconds in the microwave. I have literallynever had chocolate melt so easy!Here's how I did it. Add 1/4 cup of the finely grated chocolate and 1 tsp ofvegetable shortening in a small mason jar and place in the microwave for 15seconds. Remove from the microwave and stir and heat for another 10 seconds.The result was an incredibly smooth, easy to dip, melted chocolate sauce.WOW! This American Heritage dark chocolate was so good! The chocolatesauce turned out perfect all by itself, without any added sweeter. I could hardlycontain myself from eating the sauce directly off the spoon. From now on,anytime I need to make anything with melted chocolate I am definitely getting thisfinely grated chocolate. No more chunky, burned or ridiculously slow to meltchocolate troubles here. From now just delicious, smooth, absolutely perfect darkchocolate.

My morning mocha will never be the same again. Just two spoonfuls of this lightly spiced dark chocolate completely transform it from routine to revelatory. The blend of cinnamon, anise, citrus, pepper, and nutmeg is subtle, well-balanced, yet powerfully aromatic. It's like a little taste of the holidays, any day! It's very finely ground so it's a snap to incorporate. I just add it to the bottom of my mug before pulling a shot of espresso, and the heat of that melts it instantly. There's just enough sweetness that I don't need to add any extra sugar, but I don't like my mochas particularly sweet, so your mileage may vary. This is just perfect as is, with a tiny splash of almond milk to lighten the brew.The list of ingredients is short and sweet; all real foods you'd find in any pantry. It's "accidentally" vegan and dairy-free (kosher), too!If I can ever spare enough to bake with, I seriously want to play around with making some easy fudge... But I can barely keep this around the kitchen. I need to buy it in bulk!This post was sponsored by AMERICAN HERITAGE® Chocolate as part of an E-Commerce Review Program.
