70% to 79% Chocolate Bars

The sweet spot of dark chocolate. In the 70% range, cacao and sugar are in harmony—enough sweetness to round the edges, enough cacao to deliver depth and personality.

This is where you’ll find the widest range of flavor expression: red berries, caramel, citrus, nuts, and florals, all shaped by origin and craft.

If you’re exploring bean-to-bar chocolate, this is often the best place to start—and the range many makers consider their signature.
