Rio Caribe is the absoltule classic cacao for baking and is the bean Ottolenghi uses to make his brownies with.

It pairs particularly well with spirits like rum, cognac and whisky.

For sweet recipes, simply adjust the ingredient quantities as follows.

If a recipe asks for 100g dark chocolate, simply put in 70g of cacao and an extra 30g of sugar.
