I always wondered what darker chocolate would be like when first ingredient on the list isn’t sugar… Powered milk is sweet by itself, but without all the sugar I think 50% cocoa content might be more powerful than in 50% chocolate we have here in Europe.
Do you really not have dark chocolate bars where you are? It’s pretty easy where I’m at to get 70% chocolate bars, and even 80% and 90%. You might have to go to a specialty shop for them but they’re just in the grocery store where I’m at.
It’s delicious, complex and depending on the origin or blend it can be fruity, dark, earthy, bitter, slightly spicy or taste like coffee. Proper dark chocolate has a kick of caffeine in it too. Hope you get a chance to try it!
We do all the way to 95% I believe was the highest. But they all contain tons of sugar regardless. Lessy obviously with that much cocoa, but still. The ingredients for this one didn’t mention any sugar…
Unsweetened chocolate is sometimes called “baking chocolate” and you can usually find it where the spices and chocolate chips are found at the grocery store. You could always try getting some and melting it in the microwave or double boiler, then adding some dairy or non dairy milk products to see how it is without added sugar.
My mom would always tell me that I wouldn’t like the baker’s chocolate she would use in baking when I’d ask to try a piece.
Then, one day, she decided to just let me try it, probably expecting me to be grossed out or something. But I love dark chocolate and liked it anyways, even if it didn’t exactly match my expectations at the time.

I think you might have missed it, but they mentioned 35% unrefined cane sugar.

I definitely want to eat this bar right now.
To be clear, this product is still 35% (natural cane) sugar (by weight, I assume).
