Chocolate Covered Ginger

For Christmas gifts this year I got bulk candied ginger from Central Market and covered them in dark chocolate. I used a combination of Scharfenberger's Semisweet and Bittersweet chocolate. Scharfenberger usually is very strong for most people, but I thought it would stand up nicely against the supersweet, spicy ginger. This combination is heavenly I must say.

The Ginger People, is a store that specializes in ginger products. And they sell chocolate covered candied ginger if you are looking for a party in your mouth but too lazy to make it yourself. The best thing I love about their site is the little illustrations of the ginger people, especially this one of Fred and Ginger dancing.
