We love chocolate. And by ‘love’ we mean ‘are obsessed with’. But sometimes we like to take a walk on the wild side and have our choc fix remixed by dipping, pouring or melting it with something unexpected.

 

Here are favourite freaky chocolate combos:

 

1. Jalapeno peppers

Sweet, melty goodness with a serious kick. Get the recipe here.

 

 

2. Bacon

 

Chocolate Bacon Sticks

 

Bacon with maple syrup? Whatever. If you want to take your cured pork to the next level, go chocolate or go home. Recipe here.

 

 

3. Parmesan

 

Chocolate Parmesan

 

Forget sprinkling parmesan on your spag bol. Combine it with dark chocolate for a serious flavour explosion. Recipe here.

 

 

4. Beef jerky

 

Chocolate Beef Jerky

 

Yeah, sure, this sounds a bit gross. But trust us, that coming-together of sweet and salty is to die for. Get it here.

 

 

5. Sun-dried tomatoes

Not everyone loves sun-dried tomatoes. But we do. Particularly when they are dipped in chocolate. Make your own by following this recipe.

 

 

6. Broccoli

Getting your five-a-day shouldn’t be this good. And, yes, they are good. Like, amazingly good. Get the lowdown here.

 

 

7. Quinoa

It doesn’t much more ‘superfood’ than quinoa. And it doesn’t get much more ‘super-duper food’ than quinoa and chocolate. Recipe here.

 

 

8. Crisps
