Best Baking Chocolates of 2025

"This chocolate is perfect for making mold candies. I've created Dubai chocolate bars, filled bon bons, and chocolate-covered pretzels with it. Tempering is a breeze; I heat it to 40°C and cool to 35°C while adding chopped callets. It sets beautifully at room temperature and has a wonderful snap when bitten into. The flavor is simply delightful, and I highly recommend it. That 5 lb bag will disappear quickly!"

"After trying various brands, I always come back to Callebaut. It melts smoother, has a great texture, and sets flawlessly when making chocolate candy. I've found it has a wonderful flavor profile with no bitterness. I was pleasantly surprised when my second order arrived three days early!"

This chocolate is worth the price for anyone seeking quality!"

“As a baker, I always seek the best quality ingredients, and these did not disappoint! The flavor was excellent and not chemically tasting, resembling pure white chocolate. I was very impressed with the packaging; they came in a box with ice packs to prevent melting. Great value—I'm skipping the Wilton candy melts from now on!”

“While the product arrived slightly melted, I was still able to work with it. Next time, I'll use ice packs for shipping to keep the chocolate intact. Overall, I was happy with my purchase.”

"I absolutely love these semisweet chocolate chips. As a chocaholic, I keep these in my pantry for cooking, but I primarily eat them as chips instead of indulging in candy bars. Since I've started enjoying these, I've lost 25 pounds over the last 4 months, thanks to cutting out candy bars. They truly satisfy my chocolate cravings and are perfect for baking too!"

"I think this is the best snacking chocolate available, but I'd prefer it to be 65% cacao instead of the 70%, which is a bit too bitter for my taste."

"Living on a remote island in Alaska, I've had to learn to do things quickly! I taught myself how to make truffles, and I find that Ghirardelli chocolate tastes the best. Plus, it’s a great price!"

"For my holiday baking, I always choose Ghirardelli chocolate. Its taste is incredibly rich and addictive, making it my go-to choice every time."

“Since my local stores only stock white chocolate around the holidays, I had to order these online. I didn't intend to buy so many, but they melt well and now they're in my freezer for future gourmet desserts.”
