At Velour, we pride ourselves on crafting exquisite dark chocolate that not only tantalises your taste buds but also embodies the essence of luxury and wellness. Today, let's embark on a delightful journey to uncover the lesser-known facts about dark chocolate and debunk some common myths along the way.

Myth 1: Dark Chocolate Is Bitter and Unpleasant


Fact:ย One of the most persistent myths about dark chocolate is its bitter taste. While it's true that dark chocolate has a more intense flavour compared to milk chocolate, the bitterness is a hallmark of its purity and quality. High-quality dark chocolate, like ours at Velour, balances bitterness with a complex profile of flavours ranging from fruity to nutty. Our expert chocolatiers ensure that each little chocolate is crafted to perfection, offering a smooth and satisfying experience without overwhelming bitterness.


Myth 2: Dark Chocolate Is High in Caffeine


Fact:ย While dark chocolate does contain caffeine, the amount is relatively low compared to coffee or tea. An average serving of dark chocolate contains about 20-30 milligrams of caffeine, whereas a cup of coffee has around 95 milligrams. So, you can enjoy a piece of our luxurious dark chocolate without worrying about it keeping you up at night.


Myth 3: Dark Chocolate Is Unhealthy


Fact:ย Contrary to popular belief, dark chocolate is packed with health benefits. Rich in antioxidants, particularly flavonoids, dark chocolate can help improve heart health by reducing blood pressure and improving blood flow. Additionally, it contains essential minerals like iron, magnesium, and zinc. At Velour, we use only the finest cacao beans, ensuring that our dark chocolate is as nutritious as it is delicious.


Myth 4: Dark Chocolate Causes Acne


Fact:ย There is no scientific evidence linking dark chocolate consumption to acne. In fact, the antioxidants in dark chocolate can contribute to healthier skin by protecting it from damage caused by free radicals. So, you can enjoy our sumptuous dark chocolates without fearing any skin damage.


Myth 5: Dark Chocolate Is Not for Desserts


Fact:ย Dark chocolate is incredibly versatile and can be used to elevate a wide range of desserts. From rich, decadent cakes to elegant truffles and even savoury dishes, dark chocolate adds depth and sophistication to any recipe. Our premium dark chocolate bars are perfect for both snacking and cooking, allowing you to explore endless culinary possibilities.


Conclusionย -ย At Velour, we believe that dark chocolate is more than just a treat โ€“ it's an experience. We invite you to savour the luxury and discover the truth behind these common myths. Indulge in the richness of our carefully crafted dark chocolate, and let every bite transport you to a world of elegance and flavour.
