Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chunks

"The great baking debate: Chips vs. Chunks vs. Chopped – chocolate, that is. We like to engage in all discourse around baking, especially when it comes to chocolate, but to do so knowledgeably, we needed to create Trader Joe’s Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chunks. Made from 58.9% cocoa, a higher percentage than our chips, these chunks balance rich, dark chocolate with the perfect amount of sweetness. Unlike chips, these chunks are not formulated to hold their shape, so they melt more easily, thus covering more territory (in cookies, let’s say). And because they are irregularly shaped, you can expect some “chocolate debris” from chunks, but significantly less than if you were to chop the chocolate yourself. In summary, Trader Joe’s Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chunks promise premium chocolate flavor, are easily prepared and measured, and melt smoothly & quickly, which makes them exceptional for baking and candy making. They are also sensational for snacking. You don’t need to bake to enjoy great chocolate, after all. Made for us by an esteemed French-Belgian chocolate company that now produces product in North America, our Chocolate Chunks are of the same caliber that high-end bakeries and notable candy manufacturers use. We think our customers deserve the best; price included. So... which are better? Chunks, chips, or chopped? Well, the fun part is, that’s still up for debate!"
