Calling all chocolate lovers! You may be missing out on some truly delicious chocolate-dipped food combinations. But don’t worry, we have you covered. It’s time to get adventurous with your sweet tooth and try these mouthwatering treats. Here are 10 chocolate-covered foods you probably never thought of trying (but definitely should).

1. Ginger

If you like the sweet taste and signature spice of ginger, imagine it coated in dark chocolate. Try making your own at home or opt for Trader Joe’s delicious version of the treat.

2. Bacon

If you’re brave enough to try it, you may have just found the perfect flavor mix. You can switch up the recipe with turkey bacon or swap out milk chocolate with white chocolate. And if you want to get fancy, sprinkle on crunchy toppings like crushed pecans or pistachios.

3. Edamame

Since it’s packed with protein, that makes it healthy, right? Whatever. This unexpected combination is definitely worth it.

4. Apricots

Chocolate-dipped apricots are a great grab-and-go snack when you’re craving a burst of sweetness.

5. Oranges

The citrus flavor of the orange mixed with the decadence of the chocolate is a match made in chocolate heaven.

6. Popcorn

It’s the same salty-and-sweet sensation as mixing in M&M’s with your popcorn at the movies. But this time, you get to cover the popcorn with chocolatey goodness.

7. Potato & Sweet Potato Chips

The saltiness of the chip contrasted with the smooth sweetness of the chocolate is heavenly. If you think about it, this snack combines two of the strongest cravings in the simplest way. For more sweetness, try using sweet potato chips instead of regular ones.

8. Espresso Beans

This is for all of you coffee lovers out there. Chocolate-covered coffee beans are a mouthwatering way to enjoy some caffeinated sweets.

9. Gummy Bears

Just in case you weren’t already addicted to gummy bears, try dipping them in chocolate. The fun part is that you won’t know what flavor the gummy bear is until you bite into it. Sounds like a pretty fun guessing game to us!

10. Zucchini Bread
