February was the calendar-dedicated month of love, but why not keep that feeling spreading throughout the year? They say the quickest way to a person’s heart is through their belly, so let’s talk about making a love recipe.

Get ready to find out just how far and adventurous you can go with your chocolate love. Crank your food game up a notch with dark chocolate–even better, add some orange zest-zing to make any dish top-tier.

February was the perfect scapegoat when it comes to chocolate indulgence. Thats what Valentine’s Day is for, right?  But, why would anyone ever need an excuse to eat chocolate, especially, dark chocolate?  As a super source of anti-oxidants, dark chocolate can boost mood and focus, reduce stress, and fight harmful radicals, all without the jittery feeling coffee leaves behind.

A love recipe for any meal

Do you ever wonder why chocolate and citrus pair so well together?  Don’t think your food adventure ends with just chocolate–the bitterness of dark chocolate with the acidity of fruits brings out other notes of flavor that might get lost without chocolate’s help. If you are looking to bring new excitement to your meals, shave dark chocolate and orange zest on top to really give your tastebuds a treat, plus get additional health benefits. Remember, oranges give your body calcium, as well as vitamin A and C.

A passionate connection between citrus and cacao births new levels of flavor for a wide range of dishes, sweet or savory.
