Pepper (Sweet) - Chocolate Bell (seeds)

Sweet Chocolate Pepper
This rare and delightful bell pepper ripens from glossy green to a rich, dark-brown chocolate color. Its mild taste and unusual appearance make it a great addition to salads, stir-fries, and other dishes. The fruit has blunt ends, thick flesh, and is medium in size. Although it doesn’t actually taste like chocolate (despite the name), it offers a sweet flavor and a crunchy texture. You can use Sweet Chocolate Peppers in any recipe that calls for peppers to add both color and gourmet flair. They’re ideal for stuffing or enjoying fresh in salads. These medium-sized, elongated peppers start out green and gradually turn deep chocolate brown as they ripen. Inside, the flesh is crispy and sweeter than classic bell peppers, with a dark red color.
