Questions about chocolate and orange topping

Below, we guide you through some of the most frequently asked questions on this delicious topping for skyr.

What chocolate to use as a topping for skyr or yoghurt?
You can use both white, milk, and dark chocolate as a topping for skyr or yoghurt. We opted for dark chocolate as this adds a beautiful dark colour along with a bold and mildly bitter flavour that goes well with the sugary sweet honey. If you like it sweeter, go for milk or white chocolate.
What skyr or yoghurt to use for a chocolate and orange topping?
Use plain skyr or yoghurt to ensure a creamy, fresh, and tangy bowl, which pairs perfectly with the sweet, bright, and citrusy toppings. However, to make it sweeter, go for a vanilla skyr or yoghurt, or even one with fruit or berry flavours.
How to cut an orange to use as a topping for skyr or yoghurt?
After you have peeled the orange and separated the segments, you can cut the individual pieces into smaller pieces. We suggest small slices that do not take up too much space on a spoon so that you can have different toppings with every spoonful. Just remember to remove potential seeds. You can also make thin orange fillets after peeling it to make the flavour and texture even more delicate in the bowl.

Balance the flavours with pistachios and a drizzle of honey

While the orange and chocolate topping make for a lot of flavours, nutty pistachios and a drizzle of honey help balance the tastes and textures. Honey comes with a floral aroma and adds a more intense sugary sweetness. Topped with delicious pistachios, the soft orange slices and creamy skyr is balanced by a lovely crunch.
