There's been a lot in the press lately about the health benefits of chocolate - but remember they are referring to high quality, fine chocolate - so always look for products that are made by the best chocolatiers using natural ingredients. The higher the cocoa content (shown as a %) the lower the sugar content. Dark chocolate in the medicine cupboard is not such a frivolous idea and you can check out the many articles on chocolate and health on the web.
The very first chocolatiers were chemists and alchemists making medicines that evolved into chocolates as we know them today.
Although we at Chocs Away have absolutely no medical qualifications whatsoever, we are always fascinated to read of the many new research programmes into the healthy properties of chocolate - and it does seem feasible that a piece of fine quality chocolate might be better for us than a bowl of steamed pudding and custard to satisfy our craving for something sweet.
