Dairy free, good chocolate flavor, great price!

Better than other high end brands, this variety is excellent for baking or just snacking.

YUM!

Simply the best dark chocolate chips ever.

I use these for chocolate mousse and for chocolate ice cream. Guittard is an excellent chocolate for both purposes, high quality and tasty! A bit expensive, but to me worth the premium.

Although the package says "baking chips," they are not the same size as "baking chips" of other vendors (such as Ghirardelli). Flavor is okay; I've had better, I've had worse. These are not "extra dark" in flavor. The texture is nice, and they are creamy when melted. But the taste is more semi-sweet than dark chocolate. I also don't care for the vanilla notes. Although I love vanilla, when I want chocolate flavor I want a pure chocolate flavor. I much prefer the taste of Scharffen Berger’s Dark Chocolate for baking--or even just plain eating right out of the bag.

I've been a Nestle's semi-sweet chocolate chip girl all my life but the Guittard chips take my cookies to a whole new level. They taste exceptionally delicious and rich. The price is usually a bit more expensive but they are worth every penny. I sometimes add a few to my hot chocolate for a deeper, more intense chocolate flavor. Give them a try. They'll become a pantry staple for you as well.

As the self-proclaimed queen of dark chocolate, this is the #1
