What is another word for semisweet chocolate?
Pronunciation: [sˈɛmɪswˌiːt t͡ʃˈɒklət] (IPA) 
Semisweet chocolate is a popular baking ingredient, known for its balanced sweet to bitter taste and smooth texture. However, there are various synonyms that can be used when you can't find semisweet chocolate in the market. Bittersweet chocolate is an excellent substitute as it has a higher percentage of cocoa solids and less sugar, which makes it slightly less sweet than semisweet chocolate. Dark chocolate is another great alternative, the only difference being that it has a richer chocolate flavor. Milk chocolate is also an option but is much sweeter and contains less cocoa solids than semisweet chocolate. Similarly, unsweetened chocolate is a stronger substitute, as it has no added sugar, and is typically used in recipes that call for semisweet chocolate.
