Aisling 2012-10-15T03:38:01Z 2012-10-15T03:38:01Z <p>Ghiradelli's is the darkest I have ever seen and they are 60%. You may have to chunk up a bar of chocolate. </p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/155792/best-place-to-buy-very-dark-80-chocolate-chips/155802#155802 Answer by MG for Best place to buy very dark (80%+) chocolate chips? MG 2012-10-15T03:45:49Z 2012-10-15T03:45:49Z <p>You can get a 90 or 95% Lindt bar, there's hardly ANY sugar in there. Then just chop 'er up. </p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/155792/best-place-to-buy-very-dark-80-chocolate-chips/155805#155805 Answer by MiMintzer for Best place to buy very dark (80%+) chocolate chips? MiMintzer 2012-10-15T04:42:03Z 2012-10-15T04:42:03Z <p>Whole Foods carries 70% dark chocolate mini chunks. I also wish that I could find darker chocolate chips for my trail mix. Anything less than 85% is too sweet. And I dislike chopping up mine own...too messy and not uniform size.</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/155792/best-place-to-buy-very-dark-80-chocolate-chips/155808#155808 Answer by Michelle for Best place to buy very dark (80%+) chocolate chips? Michelle 2012-10-15T05:36:52Z 2012-10-15T05:36:52Z <p>If you're the hands-on type, it's possible to make your own chocolate chips/chunks to toss into trail mix. Mix together cocoa powder, a little bit of coconut oil, and as much sweetener as you want into a saucepan. Pour onto wax or parchment paper and chill. Then chop up into chunks. :)</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/155792/best-place-to-buy-very-dark-80-chocolate-chips/155819#155819 Answer by Kaia for Best place to buy very dark (80%+) chocolate chips? Kaia 2012-10-15T06:55:03Z 2012-10-15T06:55:03Z <p>I buy raw cocoa nibs (unsweatened) and raw cocoa beans. You are 100% sure there is no sugar/sweeteners/dairy/conservants. So its actually 100% dark chocolate. And I love them in my paleo trail mix or just on their own as a treat. </p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/155792/best-place-to-buy-very-dark-80-chocolate-chips/159316#159316 Answer by tbunchylulu for Best place to buy very dark (80%+) chocolate chips? tbunchylulu 2012-11-03T12:45:03Z 2012-11-03T12:53:57Z <p>I have searched and only found Sweet Earth Chocolate chips 65%. At least they are soy free. They cost $39.25 for a case of 8 12 oz. packages. I am about to order a case because my Whole Foods only carries 42%.</p> <p>Edit: I spoke too soon...Sunspire also has 65%. It could have trace amounts of soy due to shared machinery, but I am not going to worry about his. Vitacost sells 9 oz bags for $5.83 apiece, no bulk purchase required, but more expensive.</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/155792/best-place-to-buy-very-dark-80-chocolate-chips/159326#159326 Answer by Maria E for Best place to buy very dark (80%+) chocolate chips? Maria E 2012-11-03T13:37:05Z 2012-11-03T13:37:05Z <p>The other day I made a recipe that called for chocolate chips, but I substituted them for small pieces of 85% chocolate and it turned out great! Maybe you could just buy Lindt and cut them up yourself?</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/155792/best-place-to-buy-very-dark-80-chocolate-chips/159328#159328 Answer by Hemming for Best place to buy very dark (80%+) chocolate chips? Hemming 2012-11-03T14:09:22Z 2012-11-03T14:09:22Z <p>Scharffen Berger makes cocoa nibs, cocoa powder and 99% dark chocolate all of which are unsweetened. It's possible to get in Denmark so it must be readily available everywhere else :)</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/155792/best-place-to-buy-very-dark-80-chocolate-chips/159341#159341 Answer by Janknitz for Best place to buy very dark (80%+) chocolate chips? Janknitz 2012-11-03T16:08:35Z 2012-11-03T16:08:35Z <p>You could always melt a chocolate bar of your preferred percentage and "pipe" it out into uniform chocolate chips. Sound messy and fun. </p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/155792/best-place-to-buy-very-dark-80-chocolate-chips/190528#190528 Answer by gayle for Best place to buy very dark (80%+) chocolate chips? gayle 2013-04-09T21:42:07Z 2013-04-09T21:42:07Z <p>I have no problem finding dark chocolate, chips or bars, it's hard to find them reasonably priced without soy. </p>
