Unsweetened or bitter chocolate is chocolate without any type of sweetener added. Bitter chocolate is also the base for all other chocolate products, since it is chocolate in its pure and unadulterated form. As most people who have tried to nibble on a piece of baking chocolate know, bitter chocolate is indeed bitter, and highly unpalatable.

Dark chocolate without milk as an additive is also called plain chocolate.
