I want to bake a cake and the recipe calls for 8 oz of bittersweet chocolate, what brand should I look for? Would it be Dairy free because its bittersweet?
thanks

it should be CF, but always check the ingredients. I'd vote for scharfenburger, or green&black myself, but chocolate is a lot by preference. dagoba is good too, but check the link I posted about their recall of three particular flavors. hershey's would be fine as well, though I've never liked their dark chocolate - the texture always seemed off to me.

I use Baker's (Kraft) unsweetened chocolate squares, and I sweeten as needed.

this is a fantastic gluten/dairy free bittersweet chocolate, no need to add anything to this one!
