MANILA, Philippines — Everybody loves a good chocolate cake. Who doesn’t? It is just a matter of preference — sweetish white chocolate, creamy milk chocolate, or lightly bitter dark chocolate.
While most kids prefer the sweet variants of chocolate, most adults enjoy the well-rounded full flavor of dark chocolate, which is actually the variant that is good for heart health. Dark chocolate helps lower blood pressure and increase blood flow, enhance brain function, and supply powerful antioxidants to the body.
Harnessing the power of dark chocolate, Chef Jackie Ang Po created this recipe of Decadent Chocolate Cake using Beryl’s Dark Chocolate and Arla Butter for everyone to enjoy.
