List of chocolate-covered foods

This is a list of chocolate-covered foods. Chocolate is a typically sweet, usually brown, food preparation of Theobroma cacao seeds, roasted and ground, often flavored, as with vanilla. It is made in the form of a liquid, paste or in a block or used as a flavoring ingredient in other sweet foods.

Chocolate-covered foods

  • Breakaway – a brand of biscuit with a chocolate coating produced by Nestlé
  • Chocolate bar – many varieties have a chocolate coating
  • Caramel Apple – Although traditionally covered in just caramel or caramel and nuts, chocolate is often added, sometimes in decorative patterns.
  • Chocolate-coated marshmallow treats – produced in different variations around the world, with several countries claiming to have invented it or hailing it as their "national confection". The first chocolate-coated marshmallow treat was created in the early 1800s in Denmark.
  • Chocolate marshmallow pies – two cookies sandwiching a marshmallow center and covered in chocolate, sold under various names in various places.
  • Chocolate-coated peanut – peanuts coated in a shell of milk chocolate. They have a reputation in many countries of being food eaten in movie theaters. In some countries, they are also known as Goobers, which is the earliest and one of the most popular brands of the product, made by Nestlé. Goobers were introduced in the United States in 1925 by the Blumenthal Chocolate Company. Nestlé acquired the brand in 1984. A large number of other brands also exists.
  • Chocolate-covered almonds – many places on the internet claim that July 8 is (American) National Milk Chocolate with Almonds Day, while November 2 is National Bitter Chocolate with Almonds Day.
  • Chocolate covered fruit – such as strawberries, cherries and bananas
  • Chocolate covered cherry – variations include cherry cordial (candy) with liquid fillings often including cherry liqueur, as well as chocolate covered candied cherries and chocolate covered dried cherries.
  • Chocolate-covered prune – chocolate-covered prunes or plums are a typical Polish delicacy.

They are usually only slightly sweet, especially the dark chocolate kind, and the intense, bitter flavor of the coffee beans can be overwhelming for non-coffee-drinkers.
