Most importantly, they both provide an energy boost and are often considered an indulgent treat.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>How to pair coffee with chocolate?<\/h2>\n<p>In caf\u00e9s and coffee shops, it is becoming increasingly common to serve <strong>coffee with a little chocolate praline.<\/strong> But which one to choose? Dark or milk chocolate? Bitter or sweet? It all depends on the type of coffee.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If you choose a <strong>full-bodied coffee with a strong flavor<\/strong> &#8211; for example, a predominantly Robusta blend &#8211; you can pair it with a sweet flavor with a hint of vanilla. Milk or white chocolate provides a pleasant contrast to the bitterness of the coffee, thanks to the recognizable taste of milk and cocoa butter.<\/li>\n<li>When the <strong>coffee is delicate or aromatic with hints of spices<\/strong> &#8211; as is the case with some Arabica &#8211; 70% dark chocolate is recommended, because the intense flavor reinforces and enhances that of the coffee.<\/li>\n<li>Don&#8217;t know the blend? 60% dark chocolate is versatile and goes well with <strong>any type of coffee,<\/strong> both at the caf\u00e9 and at home, no matter the extraction method.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3378 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.biepi.net\/wakeup\/content\/uploads\/chocolate-coffee-perfect-match-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.biepi.net\/wakeup\/content\/uploads\/chocolate-coffee-perfect-match-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.biepi.net\/wakeup\/content\/uploads\/chocolate-coffee-perfect-match-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.biepi.net\/wakeup\/content\/uploads\/chocolate-coffee-perfect-match-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.biepi.net\/wakeup\/content\/uploads\/chocolate-coffee-perfect-match-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.biepi.net\/wakeup\/content\/uploads\/chocolate-coffee-perfect-match-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.biepi.net\/wakeup\/content\/uploads\/chocolate-coffee-perfect-match-450x450.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.biepi.net\/wakeup\/content\/uploads\/chocolate-coffee-perfect-match-800x800.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.biepi.net\/wakeup\/content\/uploads\/chocolate-coffee-perfect-match-1360x1360.jpg 1360w, https:\/\/www.biepi.net\/wakeup\/content\/uploads\/chocolate-coffee-perfect-match.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>More ways to enjoy coffee and cocoa together<\/h2>\n<p>In addition to the classic praline, we can suggest other ways to prepare a chocolate-flavored coffee. For a bitter note, use <strong>cocoa powder.<\/strong> You can sprinkle it on the bottom of the cup before pouring your coffee or on the foam of your cappuccino or latte macchiato.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Do you prefer a sweeter aftertaste? Then you can put some <strong>chocolate shavings<\/strong> in the cup, pour in the coffee and wait for it to dissolve. Stir if you prefer an even-tasting drink, leave it at the bottom instead if you like to be surprised by your last sip.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>The most famous coffee and chocolate pairing: tiramisu<\/h2>\n<p>The origin of the recipe is disputed among different regions, restaurants and cooks, but <strong>tiramisu<\/strong> is certainly the best known and most popular Italian dessert all over the world. There are many versions of it, the classic one involves dipping Savoiardi &#8211; a special type of spongy, crumbly biscuit &#8211; in <strong>coffee prepared with a Moka pot.<\/strong> Between each layer of cookies, a generous layer of mascarpone cream is spread, and once you get to the last one, top the dessert with a <strong>generous sprinkling of bitter cocoa.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>What is your favorite pairing?<\/p>\n<div class=\"cats\"><span class=\"cats__title\">Categories<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.biepi.net\/wakeup\/cat\/tips-tricks\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Tips &amp; Tricks<\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Coffee and chocolate have many things in common: they are both made from the seeds of a tropical fruit, which are dried and then roasted..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":3372,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[16],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v16.1.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Coffee and chocolate, a perfect match - Wake up!<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"How to pair coffee with chocolate?
