Dark Chocolate Couverture

Dark chocolate is a combination of cocoa solids and cocoa butter, as well as sugar or sweeteners. There’s no rule about how much cocoa solid a dark chocolate should have, which is why you’ll find chocolates with everything from 45%, right the way up to 90% cocoa solids. As long as there is no milk or dairy alternative added, a dark chocolate can be as sweet or as bitter and intense as you like! 

Our range of dark couverture chocolates comes from the best dark chocolate brands, including Callebaut, Valrhona, Cacao Barry, Luker, Schokinag, Stewart & Arnold, Veliche and Vanova. Featuring a variety of cocoa percentages, flavour profiles and specifications, including dairy-free and vegan options, as well as kosher, halal, fairtrade and organic. And with seventeen single origin chocolates from nine different countries, across Africa and South America, we’ve got something for every taste, preference, application and requirement.  

With eleven brands and over seventy dark chocolate couvertures to choose from, you’re bound to find your next house dark chocolate grade, and you might even discover a new favourite!

Use the filters to find the best dark chocolate couverture for your needs, or chat to one of our friendly team who’ll be happy to help you choose!
