Amy Guittard is the Chief Marketing Officer at Guittard Chocolate Company and the great-great-granddaughter of the company’s founder, Etienne. I’m particularly inspired by Amy’s commitment to quality sourcing and sustainability — she’s always traveling to origin to meet with farmers, buyers, and traders! What a life!

While I love many chocolate producers, I always choose Guittard when I can because of its high-quality, excellent flavor, and broad availability. I am particularly obsessed with the Akoma Organic Chips, which are, as far as I’m concerned, the best chocolate chips available to buy. —Samin

GUITTARD CHOCOLATE x GOOD THINGS BAKING BUNDLE

Stock your pantry with some of the Good Things Samin recommends  - including chocolate, because in her words “quality cocoa and chocolate make all the difference in baking.”  She recommends Dutch-process cocoa for the darker, smooth flavor, and chocolate chips for when you want your cookies to have intact chip-shapes of chocolate distributed throughout the cookie and baking chocolate like bars, wafers and disks with a higher percentage of cocoa butter to encourage melting. This bundle includes some of Samin’s favorite chocolate products; Guittard Cocoa Rouge, Guittard Organic Akoma 55% cacao Baking Chips, and Guittard 64% cacao Baking Wafers to help you bring to life her recipes (and yours).
