DESSERT BOARDS
For sheer indulgence, make Chocolate Provisions the centerpiece for a dessert board. Brownies, cupcakes, shortbreads, cookies, and profiteroles provide an ideal backdrop for all of the Scharffen Berger Chocolate flats. And don’t forget, Smore’s! Our flats are perfectly portioned for a sophisticated adult treat.

WINE
While pairing chocolate and wine (especially red wine) is a classic notion, creating a combination that allow both components to shine is the fun part! Below are some pairings to help you navigate these two indulgences and bring out the best of each.
41% Milk Chocolate
Compare and Contrast: Our sweetest, creamiest chocolate will be a great balance against a dry sparkling wine. While Brut Champagnes are the classic of this category, Proseccos and Cavas would also be great options.
Like with Like: The creamy texture of our milk chocolate is perfect with a rich Chardonnay or a white Burgundy.
70% Dark Chocolate with Sea Salt
Compare and Contrast: It’s time to enter the often-neglected world of dessert wines. Port wines are made by adding neutral spirit to a red wine mid process, which halts the fermentation process while the wine still contains a powerful punch of natural sweetness.
Like with Like: A full-throttle red wine would stand up to the 70% bitterness. A Petite Sirah is an outstanding and brawny wine or Italy’s Valpolicella Ripassos.
82% Dark Chocolate
Compare and Contrast: Bordeaux’s Sauternes are among the world’s most coveted sweet wines and make the perfect pairing for the 82%
Like with Like: An extra dark chocolate is a natural fit with extra dark red dessert wines. A vintage port would provide a decadent experience or a Banyuls from France’s Rhone Valley.

BOURBONS AND WHISKEYS
Chocolate Provisions marry up stylishly with Scotches and Whiskies, and Bourbons.
41% Milk Chocolate = high rye bourbon
70% Dark Chocolate with Sea Salt = Wheated Bourbon
82% Simply Dark = high proof bourbon

BEER PAIRINGS
41% Milk Chocolate = darker beers like Stouts and Porters, especially an Oatmeal Stout
70% Dark Chocolate with Sea Salt = the earthy hoppy flavors of Pale Ales, IPA’s and Hazy ales are perfect with the sea salt inclusion
82% Simply Dark = Belgian Ales
