Ghirardelli Classic White Frappe, 3 Lb Can This instant

This can is great for making coffee shop frappe's. The texture is awesome and it tastes like my local coffee shop. You just need cold coffee, milk, ice, flavoring and the Ghirardelli powder and you can save yourself $3.50 by not going to the coffee shop. I am very pleased.Get more detail about Ghirardelli Classic White Frappe, 3 Lb Can.

Ghirardelli Sweet Ground Chocolate, 3 Lb Can Immediately

2010-01-22T14:23:00.001-08:00

I've been using Ghirardelli Sweet Ground Chocolate since I started baking/cooking 47 years ago, as did my Grandmother before me. I can't imagine using anything else. When a recipe calls for Cocoa, I always use Ghirardelli. Anytime I share a recipe that calls for cocoa it's always with the caveat that other products (like Hersheys, Nestles etc.) will NOT give the results that the person is after. A Cocoa Divinity Cake made with Ghirardelli Sweet Ground Chocolate is to die for, and the Ghirardelli Brownie recipe makes the absolute BEST BROWNIES in the world, either mix or from scratch. No good kitchen should be without it! Get more detail about Ghirardelli Sweet Ground Chocolate, 3 Lb Can.

2010-01-20T14:23:00.001-08:00

This is the best instant hot chocolate out there. It taste just like homemade - even better than some of those fancy coffee shops. It is a very rich hot chocolate and doesn't give that watered down taste. I now have a very hard time drinking anything else besides this. I am not a coffee drinker, so I take these packets with me whenever I think they might come in handy. I fixed little giftbags for Christmas last year to give to the kids' teachers and they talked about how much they enjoyed the hot chocolate also.

Ghirardelli White Chocolate Sauce, Case (6 Bottles) Buy Now

2010-01-19T14:22:00.001-08:00

I found this sauce to be underwhelming in flavor, all sweetness with a less than lovely aftertaste. I tried smaller and smaller amounts in my espresso and could never get a comparable result to using the ghiradelli chips. Also, the companion pump didn't keep it's prime and had to be pumped several times to be reprimed every day and so the amount released was inconsistent which made it difficult to "measure" easily. (1 pump, 1/2 pump, etc)
One ounce in an espresso was VERY strong and not pleasant, and a half ounce is just sweet without a white mocha flavor.Get more detail about Ghirardelli White Chocolate Sauce, Case (6 Bottles).

Ghirardelli Chocolate Cocoa Powder, Superior 10-12% Cocoa, 25-Pound Package Decide Now

2010-01-17T14:22:00.001-08:00

I go through about a pound of unsweetened cocoa powder per month just eating it by the tablespoon as a snack and I'm so glad I found this. Even though it's lightly Dutched with a ph of 6.8, this dark reddish brown cocoa is really chocolatey and noticeably acidic. The word "Superior" is actually part of the product name rather than simply a descriptive. Ghirardelli's natural cocoa is called "Merritas" ( ph 5.5 ) and "Sunrise" is more heavily Dutched ( ph 7.5 ). [...] I think this cocoa will work nicely in any capacity, from baking to hot cocoa. My order arrived in about one day via FedEx home, originating in Lewisberry, PA. And many thanks Pumpkin King for sharing your product images!

Save Ghirardelli Chocolate Frappe Classico, Double Chocolate, 50-Ounce Can

2010-01-13T14:23:00.001-08:00

I used to buy a mocha frappe every single day at my local coffee shop. Needless to say, it was expensive. I had tried many different ways of making it at home and none of them worked until this product. The consistency of it is perfect and it doesn't melt before I'm done drinking it. Just like the ones I get at the cofffee shop, it stays thick until the very last drop. The chocolatey flavor is perfection in my opinion... and I'm very picky, having tasted many of these over the years.

Also, one of the problems that I used to have trying to make mocha frappe's at home was that the ice would never get very well blended because my blender is a cheaper one, and I couldn't afford to buy a nice one like those in coffee shops that cost hundreds of dollars. With Ghirardelli frappe mix I don't have that problem anymore. Even with a cheaper blender all the ice gets perfectly blended.

I'm not even sure just how much money I've saved since I stopped visiting the coffee shop every day and started using this product, but I know it's a huge amount. Get more detail about Ghirardelli Chocolate Frappe Classico, Double Chocolate, 50-Ounce Can.

While the price for this 3lb tub is outrageous (I bought mine online for $11), Ghirardelli's white chocolate powder is the ONLY way to go for white mochas. My recipe: I use a Starbucks Barista and espresso pods from www.podhead.com (Bristot).

in an 18oz glass...

Mix:
2oz espresso brewed with 1 pod (not quite as strong, but more economical than brewing 1.5 oz using 2 pods)
3T Ghirardelli white chocolate powder

Add:
Whole milk to your desired dilution (I add about 10oz)

Top with ice and, if desired, whipped cream.

Most importantly, experiment to find your perfect ratio of espresso to powder to milk.Buy Ghirardelli White Chocolate Ground Case, Six 3-Pound Cannisters!

Ghirardelli Chocolate Limited Edition Peppermint Bark Squares, 8.31-Ounce Candy Cane Tins (Pack of 2)

2009-05-14T22:22:00.001-07:00

This Ghirardelli Peppermint Bark chocolate has 3 component to it which makes it taste very interesting as you take a bite at it. Chocolate layer (available in milk or dark or 60% dark), white chocolate layer, and peppermint crust. It's kind of unorthodox to use peppermint (or replace mint) with chocolate (as you might be tired of the peppermint candy cane), but they didn't put too much peppermint crust so it is good. but enough to give the kick of the mint taste (and mintier than the regular mint chocolate)

If you like mint or peppermint, there is a good chance that you will like this peppermint bark chocolate (maybe not at the first bite). This is perfect for the holiday time, after dinner and dessert.

I like the Dark Chocolate version compare to the Milk chocolate version because the white chocolate layer is already milky and sweet, as well as the peppermint crust, so the dark chocolate will give more balance and reduce the overall sweetness of this chocolate

If you like this chocolate, you might want to try the after eight mint chocolate which is also very good. You might also want to try (if you haven't already) the Ghirardelli Mint Chocolate (Dark Chocolate with white mint filling). It's really good.

The candy cane tins that comes with this chocolate is really cool (though I like the ornament ball tins better). This item is perfect as a gift and it is limited edition too.Buy Ghirardelli Chocolate Limited Edition Peppermint Bark Squares, 8.31-Ounce Candy Cane Tins (Pack of 2)!

I don't even make them from scratch because this is just as good and easier (at least to me) and I always get compliments on them when I bake some up to share.

Ghirardelli Chocolate 60% Cacao Dark Chocolate with Caramel Squares, 5.25 oz Bag

2009-05-06T22:22:00.001-07:00

I love dark chocolates, the darker the better. However unlike the many other Ghirardelli dark chocolates this one isn't good.

The chocolate itself doesn't melt smooth, has bad mouth feel, and is absolutely flavorless. The chocolate actually reminds me of the poor tasting choco-bits in some ice creams, just waxy and lacking of flavor. And it doesn't even taste the same as their regular 60% chocolate. If Ghirardelli would have used the same chocolate as their other filled delights then it would actually taste really good.

The caramel filling is the only redeeming quality of the chocolate. Smooth, full flavored, and not overly sticky (like some chocolate makers tend to use).

Overall this is a poor quality chocolate that is waxy and flavorless with the only good thing being the caramel filling. Ghirardelli really dropped the ball on this one and am a bit surprised that they allowed it out on the market.

My recommendation, buy a different flavor or brand, this is definitely not Ghirardelli at their best.

Pros:
Caramel filling tastes great.

Cons:
Waxy, doesn't melt well.
The chocolate itself is flavorless.Buy Ghirardelli Chocolate 60% Cacao Dark Chocolate with Caramel Squares, 5.25 oz Bag!

Ghirardelli Classic White Chocolate Sauce

2009-05-05T22:22:00.001-07:00

I bought this sauce at my local Smart & Final to make my Iced White Mocha's I LOVE so much. I would normally spend $4 for a venti white mocha and my husband decided to get me my own Espresso Machine. Well I was excited and ready to go with my clear plastic cups and lids and my white chocolate sauce. Unfortunately, this was just awful. I knew it wasn't going to be good when I poured the sauce and it was a transparent yellowish tone, not the thick white sauce I normally see the barista squirt into my cup. So I poured it back into the bottle thinking I needed to shake it up but it didn't change. It tasted awful. Even my 4 yr old son who enjoys white mocha's with me all the time (Decaf,of course) didnt want anything to do with it. Thankfully my 6 yr old who hasn't had as many white mocha's as my son and I gave it a thumbs up so hopefully she can finish off this stuff so its not a complete waste. I just ordered Torani's white chocolate sauce With a pump so I hope that is exactly what I am looking for. Good luck!Buy Ghirardelli Classic White Chocolate Sauce!

Yeah,

it's great chocolate. But it is also not shipped across an ocean. I prefer my chocolate with a more minimal carbon footprint.

I love that extra 2% of chocolate over the normal 70%. That makes ALL the difference. Whatever.

It is my favorite chocolate. It could be a tiny bit cheaper though, given that it isn't shipped from Europe.Buy Ghirardelli Chocolate Intense Dark Twilight Delight™ 72% Cacao, 3.5-Ounce Packages (Pack of 12)!

Ghirardelli Chocolate Limited Edition Peppermint Bark Squares, 9.3-Ounce Packages (Pack of 2)

2009-04-30T22:28:00.001-07:00

This Ghirardelli Peppermint Bark chocolate has 3 component to it which makes it taste very interesting as you take a bite at it. Chocolate layer (available in milk or dark or 60% dark), white chocolate layer, and peppermint crust. It's kind of unorthodox to use peppermint (or replace mint) with chocolate (as you might be tired of the peppermint candy cane), but they didn't put too much peppermint crust so it is good. but enough to give the kick of the mint taste (and mintier than the regular mint chocolate)

If you like mint or peppermint, there is a good chance that you will like this peppermint bark chocolate (maybe not at the first bite). This is perfect for the holiday time, after dinner and dessert.

I like the Dark Chocolate version compare to the Milk chocolate version because the white chocolate layer is already milky and sweet, as well as the peppermint crust, so the dark chocolate will give more balance and reduce the overall sweetness of this chocolate

If you like this chocolate, you might want to try the after eight mint chocolate which is also very good. You might also want to try (if you haven't already) the Ghirardelli Mint Chocolate (Dark Chocolate with white mint filling). It's really good.

if this coffee tasted like it smelled, i'd pay out the nose for it. the truth is that this coffee doesn't really taste so wonderful. It smells fantastic. I buy the whole bean and my krups grinder/coffee maker goes off at 4am and the smell gets me out of bed with a smile!!! The actual coffee taste is a let down. You'd probably get a better chocolate/caramel flavor for a lot less by letting a rolo melt in your folgers and stirring it up.

Ghirardelli Sweet Ground Chocolate Cocoa Case, Six 3-Pound Cannisters

2009-04-28T22:27:00.001-07:00

While not the absolute best cocoa I've used, Ghiradelli is one of the finest that is readily available. I recommend using it as a matter of course instead of the ubiquitous Hershey's, which has a harsher flavor. This cocoa is mild yet rich in flavor, smooth tasting. I use it all the time for baking, and people notice the difference, even if they don't understand why my brownies are better than average.

This product, despite the "sweet" in the name, is not a hot chocolate mix. If you go to the manufacturer web site, you'll find some high quality recipe for its use.Buy Ghirardelli Sweet Ground Chocolate Cocoa Case, Six 3-Pound Cannisters!

2009-04-24T22:48:00.001-07:00

Oh, sure. It's terrific in cookies but, if you really want a treat, try using Ghirardelli's Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips to make a truly delicious hot chocolate!

You can take 1/4 cup of chips and melt them in a microwave in 1/2 cup milk. Stir. Then add another 1/2 cup milk, although the truly decadent will use half-and-half. Add a pinch of cinnamon, a pinch of chili powder (yeah, you heard me), and two pinches of instant coffee. Wow!!

Ghirardelli has been making exceptional chocolate in the USA for over 150 years. They take it from the beans all the way to the finished product. Their chocolates are smooth (not grainy). Very nice!

Highly recommended!

I'm amazed at how lovely this new product from Ghirardelli Chocolate is and how well it melts, even in the microwave; just be careful to watch and not let it burn because it continues melting even after the heat source is stopped. I had seen it online for $7 a bag, so was thrilled to see Amazon offer it for a great price and since I share my goodies, this is a no-brainer. For the past couple months, I've been immersed in baking, particularly chocolate goods, and I've been surprised at the easy flourless chocolate cake recipes I've discovered. My friends all agree that the last one I baked using this chocolate ranks among the best of late. I've also baked wonderful chocolate 3 layer bar cookies after substituting the home dried cherries and finely chopped pecans for the recipe's raisins and walnuts. Just had one with a cup of tea and the chocolate radiates and enhances the cherry flavor. I prefer using unsweetened chocolate in baking because I can add my own organic sugar instead of the refined sugar usually used in sweetened chocolate, even bittersweet. I'm now thinking of preparing a batch of chocolate ice cream with this. Great stuff.Buy Ghirardelli Chocolate 100% Cacao Unsweetened Chocolate for Baking, 10-Ounce Packages (Pack of 6)!

This chocolate is so easy to work with for making homemade molded chocolates. We have used it for years for our traditional chocolate making at Christmas. It melts easily in the microwave, and it molds beautifully. The molded chocolates have a nice shine and a crisp bite. I was very disappointed when I could not find it locally, so hurray for Amazon. And this price is great. Direct from Ghirardelli's, it's $10 a box!!

For a great chocolate treat, mix some rice krispies in some of the chocolate and fill a nice-sized mold halfway. Lay a small piece of caramel apple wrap in the mold and then fill the remainder with plain chocolate. Voila! a home-made $100,000 bar.

If they bundle into a package and get this down to roughly $5.99/can then it rivals the Ghiradelli shop online site. We use this to make homemade mocha coffees with our Cuisinart burr grinder.

Ghirardelli Chocolate Sweet Ground White Chocolate Flavor, 3.12-Pound Can

2009-04-18T22:47:00.001-07:00

Easy to use and good flavor. This product is a fine white powder, with clearly visible sugar crystals, that mixes very easily with the espresso and frothed milk for our white chocolate mochas. Product has a good flavor when mixed according to directions: not too sweet. Be aware, this is a flavored powder, probably not white chocolate at all, because it contains no cocoa butter, which I believe is used to make white chocolate. White chocolate isn't chocolate at all. The first three ingredients of this product are sugar, partially hydrogenated coconut oil, and corn syrup solids. You decide whether the price for this is a good value, or whether this is really a white chocolate product or, as the label states, "SWEET GROUND WHITE CHOCOLATE" followed by the very important word, in smaller print, "FLAVOR." We will continue to search for the perfect white chocolate flavoring for our mochas, but we are pleased with this one. Buy Ghirardelli Chocolate Sweet Ground White Chocolate Flavor, 3.12-Pound Can!

I was worried about the can size - but the three-pound is really just as convenient - it barely takes up more space than the one-pound cans on my kitchen counter. (Granted, if I were keeping it in a cabinet, it would be a tighter fit - but still, it's not as bulky as one might expect.) And the chocolate, of course, is wonderful. Ghiradelli makes the best!

My two favorite flavors of Ghirardelli chocolate squares are these Dark Chocolate with Caramel and the Dark Chocolate with Raspberry, but these are the best in my opinion. I find the chocolate to be very firm and the caramel to be very creamy, less sweet than others I've had. They are as pleasant as many creme caramels I have had, the burnt sugar flavor coming through. Some of the squares actually were broken with the filling oozing out, but I rather enjoyed these as long as they didn't stick to the wrappers. I'm not fond of licking the candy off the wrapper and discard those. For this reason, I cannot give these a 5 star review. I find that the wrappers are very easy to remove by simply tearing down the center seam and the confection can easily be popped into the mouth or nibbled while holding onto the chocolate inside the half wrapper. These are especially good with a cup of strong coffee. I have found that young children who like milk chocolate and/or candy bars were not fond of these. They didn't mind the raspberry filled dark chocolate, but these were more of an "adult" taste that they didn't favor.Buy Ghirardelli Chocolate Squares 60% Cacao, Dark with Caramel, 5.32-Ounce Packages (Pack of 6)!

I'm certainly not a confections expert, but I do love chocolate, and especially raspberry chocolates of all types and varieties. I can honestly say that these Ghirardelli raspberry filled chocolates are some of the best I've ever had, and are easily the best widely available in the US. I have had better (an Italian import that I cannot remember the name of), but they weren't that much better.

As another reviewer noted, the filling does contain actual raspberry seeds, and while some might not like that, I personally enjoy it. It lets me know that the filling I am consuming is made from real raspberries, not some boiled down concentrate with artificial flavors.

These are slightly expensive, but their worth the price in my opinion. Not too sweet, not too gummy, perfect served alongside coffee or as a petite desert after a meal. They also go well with a dark chocolate cake or brownie and ice cream.

I also enjoy the Ghiridelli shop in the gas light area of San Diego when there on business. Mama mia that place smells so delicious! However, this particular hot coco mix is simply too rich and overly sweet. Almost on the undrinkable side of things. My kids actually dislike it for this reason and prefer Swiss Miss packets.
