Pairing is a matter of taste, but I find these are some particularly delicious ways to enjoy coffee and chocolate together:
- Coffee and biscotti are a classic coffee pairing, with chocolate biscotti being amongst the most popular types. Pair Chocolate Almond Biscotti, Chocolate Coconut Layered Biscotti or Triple Chocolate Biscotti with espresso drinks or Ethiopian coffees, or pair White Chocolate and Ginger Biscotti with Colombian coffee.
- For dark chocolate, I suggest espresso drinks, Indonesian, Brazilian, Ethiopian, Guatemalan and dark roast coffees.
- Milk chocolate is delicious with many coffees, especially Colombian, Kenyan, Sumatran, Yemeni, Ethiopian and Kona coffees.
- White chocolate is harder to pair with coffee, as its delicate flavor can be overwhelmed more easily, but it can work with Colombian, Costa Rican and Yemeni coffees.
- Brownies are great with full-bodied coffees from Indonesia or Guatemala.
- Cakes and cupcakes are classic coffee foods. Chocolate-iced chocolate cake and chocolate pound cake are fantastic with chocolaty Guatemalans. You may also want to try chocolate mousse cake with Arabica coffee and vanilla-iced chocolate cupcakes with Colombian coffee.
- Chocolate-dipped fruit pairs well with most African coffees.
