Learn all about chocolate pairings with this handy infographic

With over 600 unique flavour compounds, chocolate is one of the world’s most complex and dynamic ingredients. As delicious as it can be on its own, it can be paired with other flavours to create a whole new taste experience.

Hotel group Swissotel recently released an infographic that provides a guide to some of the best pairings that can be made with chocolate. The guide looks into the history of white, milk and dark chocolate and explores how these different types can be matched with other (sometimes very unexpected) flavours. Who would have known that white chocolate and caviar is a match made in heaven?

The infographic also outlines how chocolate is made – from bean to bar – and what kind of chocolate that is most popular in different countries.
