Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a healthy dessert recipe?

Of course! Chocolate contains great health benefits and I think all food is good in moderation.

Do chocolate and orange go together?

Yes, with the citrusy tang of the orange complementing the richness of the chocolate, it is a perfect match! The darker the chocolate, the better, for this flavor pairing.

What is the best melting chocolate?

These Dark Chocolate Melting Wafers will melt well and be perfect for dipping. They also set up nicely to hold up when storing leftovers (if needed). You can also use regular baking chocolate chips that will work well, be delicious for this recipe and accessible at any grocery store.

Can the chocolate set at room temperature or do they have to go in the fridge?

Melting wafers will set up quickly even at room temperature. Regular chocolate chips will take longer, however, setting them in the fridge goes much faster.

How do I store leftover orange slices?

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
