baker's chocolate

Pure cocoa block

Baker's chocolate is unsweetened chocolate used in baking, containing only cocoa solids and cocoa butter with no added sugar.

It provides intense chocolate flavor that the baker controls by adding sugar separately.

The name comes from its use in baking, not from any brand, though Baker's is also a major chocolate brand: The recipe calls for two ounces of baker's chocolate.
