My family uses two kinds of chocolate for baking.
We use the Ambrosia chocolate chips sold at Costco. These cost $16.99, weigh 160 ounces, and contain 43% cocoa. That works out to 25 cents per ounce of cocoa mass.
For dark chocolate we use Trader Joe's 72% Pound Plus bars. These cost $4.99, weight 17.6 ounces, and contain 72% cocoa. That works out to 39 cents per ounce of cocoa mass.
Chocolate prices are on the rise. I wonder how these numbers will change in a year or two?
Good to see you around again. hope all is going well with you guys. We have been wondering.
ReplyDeleteWe get the pound plus bars from TJ's and when I can't get there the smaller Aldi bars (I am not sure what the price difference is though I think it is significant-- if I am remembering correctly the Moser Roth bars we buy either the 70% or 82% 4.41oz is $2.78 or $3.25 or something like.)
