Chocolate Textures in Food Photography

One of my favourite things to photograph is chocolate, in all its forms. From moist to cracked textures there is quite a lot to explore. 

I enjoy playing with the lighting to make sure that the light picks up the individual texture in each chocolate dish. Focusing on the texture of your food is a really simple way to improve your food photos, especially with chocolate brown colours

When it comes to chocolate, do you prefer smooth or crunchy chocolate textures? I think I’m a sucker for both!
