I genuinely enjoy the process of making colourful, delicious food. But I do allow myself an occasional piece of chocolate – today I had a pastry. If I fancy something, I’ll have it.
Caramelized white chocolate is a mind-blowingly simple and delicious technique that will silence all the alleged white-chocolate haters out there.
I’m not a fan of grilling meat, since that tends to dry it out, and I find grill marks leave a bitter taste. A good steak house will offer different options for preparation, and I would ask them to broil or pan-roast the steak and finish it with butter. It ends up a dark chocolate color and stays very juicy.
I’ll say it’s not easy to keep yourself between 100 and 112 pounds every day of every month of the year. Especially for women. I’m a woman; once a month I retain water and I crave chocolate and sugar. Those are the toughest days.
Food-wise, oh man, I tend to really indulge on vacation because a lot of my friends are incredible chefs. One friend makes an eggplant parmesan that is heavenly and melts in your mouth, and another makes a chocolate pudding that I can’t resist.

I love ice cream, and I love chocolate.
I don’t mind cheese with a nice glass of port, but I prefer chocolate.
I think anyone can bake, but I don’t think I can bake well. I sort of feel like baking is just, like, chocolate and butter and sugar, and that is always nice, so I think anyone can bake, you can put those things together, and it will come out all right. The next level of that, I definitely can’t do.
When it comes to the chocolate, I allow it every single day, but I only get 200 calories worth. So I work it into my daily calories. It’s a candy bar. But I usually only need it after dinner.
Digital Chocolate has 60% of its developers in Finland where the sun never sets in the summer and there is nothing to do outside in the winter, so we are very productive!
Look at bread, and see it as a Dairy Milk Cadbury’s chocolate bar, and say to yourself, ‘OK, you don’t need that.’ Bread is bad.
When I look in the mirror, I see my late mother: I have her nose, her dark eyes – I call them chocolate eyes – I have her colouring, and my hair is greying the same way, although I use colour and she didn’t.
Chocolate is not cheating! After a salty meal, you need a little bit of sweet. This is living, not cheating.
The thing is, when I feel like I have to lose weight, the opposite happens. I remember stuffing loads of chocolate on the plane to the shoot, and I thought, ‘Why don’t you have the courage to show up in a body that’s natural, not overly worked out?’
I eat chocolate and I love sweet treats.
I still remember the first time I was on stage. It was for a short play, ‘Dilnaz and the Chocolate Cake.’ And the only reason why I did it was because we used to rehearse with real chocolate cake.
Ontologically, chocolate raises profoundly disturbing questions: Does not chocolate offer natural revelation of the goodness of the Creator just as chilies disclose a divine sense of humor? Is the human born with an innate longing for chocolate? Does the notion of chocolate preclude the concept of free will?
Venice is like eating an entire box of chocolate liqueurs in one go.

At school, when everyone would sell sweets and chocolate, I’d always take it that step further. I’d hustle as hard as I could to get the new Air Forces, to go and chill with the posh kids and the white girls who were around my area.
For the scene where I had to taste dirt, I was ready to do it for real. But our amazing art team said it would hurt my teeth and created fake dirt out of chocolate on ice cream Pig Bar.’
Every day, without fail, I eat some dark chocolate.
Caramel gives chocolate a run for its money.
A chocolate cake can include almond praline or blackberry, and a vanilla one can have cinnamon, cappuccino, or pistachio… Each is distinctive, and I bake only to order.
I do really good banana bread. And I make a chocolate cake with fudge icing that’s bloody delicious.
Sometimes a girl’s gotta have some chocolate!
While a lot of milk chocolate just so happens to be poor quality, milk chocolate itself is not the problem.
My life just got taken over by my cooking. If you don’t have any discipline, which I don’t, you can make 10 gallons of chocolate mousse, take a spoonful and another and another, and you won’t realize you’ve eaten like five servings of it. It’s just what you do.
I’m not a chocolate man. I’m Skittles, anything made by Wonka. You know, I like candy, not chocolate.
I’m a big potato chip girl. I don’t like chocolate and cakes and all that, but I have to have my potato chips. I’ve got bags in the back of my car right now! But I never beat myself up about it, because, look: You can’t give up every damn thing. You need something in your life that you like just because you like it!
When I made ‘Chocolate,’ no one had made suspense thrillers for a long time.
Chocolate’s good for ya – high cocoa content chocolate is.
It started in middle school. Once, a group of girls locked me in the janitor’s closet. Another time, a girl spilled chocolate milk down a dress I made. Girls would try to trip me in the hallway.
If I had to give up cheese or chocolate, I’d give up chocolate in a heartbeat.
I’m a big kid. I love drinking chocolate milk. I’m not afraid to watch some cartoons once in a while when I’m with my nieces and actually be attentive.
Ice cream was my undoing, and six chocolate milk shakes in a row were nothing to me at one time.
When I was a child, I used to eat sugar Frosted Flakes with chocolate milk, but I digest, I mean digress.
My kids don’t like chocolate. My husband doesn’t like chocolate, so I get it all to myself.
We’re now able to 3D print in 200 different materials, from titanium to rubber, plastic, glass, ceramic, leathers, and even chocolate.
The zeitgeist tells us that we ‘should’ prefer dark chocolate much the same as we should prefer wine, coffee, and whiskey with flavor profiles that run toward the extreme. But sometimes I just want to eat something accessible and enjoyable without embarking on a cerebral tasting exercise.
I worked with a couple of chocolate Labradors, which were a lot of fun. Very excitable. They’re cute.
My weakness is chocolate – especially butterscotch and nut varieties.
Number one, I absolutely love making chocolate chip cookies. I mean, it’s fun. It’s exciting. Beyond the fact that I love making them, I love eating them.

People, when they buy a hat, they can’t explain why they want to buy it or why they want it, but they do. It’s like chocolate.
I have a sweet tooth. Milk chocolate with the caramel fillings – that’s my guilty pleasure right there. But I think that’s all right; we have to let ourselves indulge sometimes.
No day would be complete without chocolate. My favorite: Vosges Creole bar – it’s dark chocolate with cocoa nibs. Holy Toledo, that thing is good.
I don’t consider myself at the kind of stature of somebody who can play five cities on a tour, and that’s it. I go where I’m wanted, and I’ve always had the rural areas of the country. We’ve always gone there, since the Carolina Chocolate Drops. There’s a fan base that’s there, and if I can afford to do it, I do it.
I particularly like Hershey’s chocolate – the kind which has almonds in it.
When I have bad days, I just eat lots of chocolate ice cream and dance to the ‘Lion King’ soundtrack. It’s really odd, but it’s true.
I’ve got two chocolate labradors, Murphy and Dexter. They’re like my children.
I’m a woman who wants her chocolate.
We love chocolate.
My dad cooks beef in Guinness, I don’t know why he does that, he adds chocolate to his spaghetti Bolognese too, I’m scared about doing that, it would like chocolate Bolognese if I did it, he likes to make it look rich that’s why, so yes, my dad experiments but I don’t.
I loved shooting ‘iGo to Japan’ because we got to be outside a lot, and our call times were really late because we had so many night scenes. It was pouring rain, so the cast would huddle together in between takes and drink hot chocolate. Shooting that episode was such a great bonding experience.
