Hi,
this is in regards to the question above regarding the 90% dark chocolate. You should be able to use it in anything which calls for unsweetened chocolate - there are a lot of recipes for that. I just made a batch of espresso brownies this weekend (twice actually) using unsweetened chocolate, from an internet recipe. Came out absolutely yummy (thats why had to make it twice in 3 days!)

Daughter mistakely bought block of 90% callebaut chocolate. What does one make with this block. Hate to waste it, but it can’t be eaten plain. Where to find recipes using this 90% dark chocolate?

Hi Bea, I’m crazy for beetroot and have never made dessert with it, so I am eager to try this.

p/s: I mentioned your brownie in my beetroot post.

I’m looking to start a food cart with Quinoa and related gluten and wheat-free menu.
Your blog has made me even more determined to get started.

[...] Ok, now you know why I like beets but you’re probably still wondering why I would decided to combine them with chocolate and turn them into a muffin. Well I can’t exactly take all the credit for the idea. Once I realized that I no longer hate beets, I couldn’t wait to find some new recipes to try out. I started scouring the internet and was surprised to find numerous recipes for Chocolate Beet Cake. WHAT??? I certainly wasn’t expecting that. But the recipes are everywhere. Then I made another discovery. One of my favorite food blogs, La Tartine Gourmande, also featured a Chocolate and Beet recipe. I decided that if Bea thinks it’s a good combination, then it probably is! [...]

Ah sorry, I am getting it now. I corrected the instructions. You of course need to add the beets. Thanks Gustavo and Maureen.

Gustavo is right — there are no instructions for the shredded beets.

Hi Alanna,

Nice recipe of yours! Looks good!

Hi MM,

Yes the beets and chocolate are unsual but really, if you are not told about the beets when eating, you might not be able to tell!

Hi Gerald,

Yes you get dirty hands, that’s for sure. But I just love beets, so

Hi Gustavo,

Beets in all forms, great choice!
