Whats better chocolate?

[Celerity]

Hello all,

While being a nice all around gent, and master Honda Craftsman, I also enjoy the delights of Culinary arts.

I'm making batches of chocolate truffles. And it's real tough and messy to actually create chocolate from raw ingredients. So I'm taking a quick poll to see what the preferred chocolate is amongst you choco-fiends and candy monsters.

Godiva is of course some damned good chocolate, but it's sold like bricks of fucking gold. They are stamped and packaged and cost like 40 times what the rest do. My friend's family is the Guittard family, but I regard their chocolate as nothing more than cocoa flavored wax.

If you have another suggestion for a company that sells chocolate plain and in bulk, let me know.

Thanks !

Word travels fast

But now I know how it travels.


Off topic, but it's my topic so I'll threadjack it:

Sue's new diet is a real bitch to cook for. no sugar, no sodium, no meat, no dairy. I can steam vegetables, and that's about it.

Just read about it in Clayton's bbq party thread. *shrug*

Ah, I see that now.

Too many forums to keep track of here !

you don't want my pics, do you

Godiva = Kraft
Ghiradelli = Over priced choclate, which is not all that good to begin with, and I am from where it was invented.
Guittard's = Tasteless choclate, that comes with a high price.
Lindt = Best on the list

My personal recomendation is See's, although many may disagree, their dark choclate is some of the better well priced choclate out there.
