Ingredients:

1. Organic Chocolate Liquor: The primary ingredient in Equal Exchange Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips is organic chocolate liquor, also known as cocoa mass or cocoa liquor. It is made from ground cocoa beans and provides the intense chocolate flavor and richness to the chips.

2. Organic Sugar: Organic sugar is added to sweeten the chocolate chips and balance the bitterness of the cocoa. It enhances the overall taste and adds a touch of sweetness to the chocolate.

3. Organic Cocoa Butter: Cocoa butter is the natural fat extracted from cocoa beans during the chocolate-making process. It helps give the chocolate chips a smooth texture and contributes to their rich flavor.

4. Organic Vanilla Extract: Organic vanilla extract is included to enhance the flavor of the chocolate chips with its warm and aromatic notes. It adds depth and complexity to the overall taste profile.

5. Sunflower Lecithin: Sunflower lecithin is a natural emulsifier derived from sunflower seeds. It is added to Equal Exchange Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips to improve texture and prevent the chocolate from separating during melting or baking.

6. Organic Cocoa Powder (Optional): Some varieties of Equal Exchange Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips may contain organic cocoa powder for an extra boost of chocolate flavor and color. Cocoa powder is made by grinding roasted cocoa beans into a fine powder and is often used in chocolate products for its intense cocoa taste.
