Zartbitterschokolade - what is it in english ?

[Armadeus]

I'm going to make a chocolate flavour gugelhupf from a german recipe. Looks a bit like a bundt cake in shape. It asks for 'zartbitter' chocolate. Just struggling over what it means. Is it just dark chocolate or something specifically german ? Or a chocolate with a very high percentage of cocoa solids like 80% ? Hope someone knows ! Thanks in advance !

Unsweetened dark chocolate with high cocoa content

70% chocolate would be fine.

It's dark chocolate with a cocoa content between 50% and 70%.

Thanks everyone. Will nip to lidl to see if they have some

Please OP, you must share this recipe, it sounds delish.

Zartbitter is dark chocolate, I normally take the Green and Black ones, you should try and get baking chocolate.

Can you post the recipe? It’s aeons that I did a Guglehupf and never with chocolate.

🤣🤣🤣 this has made my day - thank you!

@reluctantbrit can't link but try www.einfachbacken.de for Schoko-gugelhupf. Looks lovely 😋

Ritter sport makes it and you can but it in London or probably online. It's basically 50% dark. Lindt dark will work fine.

I did guffaw at gugel it, v good.
