Ingredients you’ll need
Here’s a list of ingredients you’ll need to make this bark. You can find my recipe card at the bottom of this post for the complete list with their amounts.
- White chocolate
- Orange extract: I used Nielsen-Massey Pure Orange Extract.
- Orange food colouring: I used Sugarflair Pastel Concentrated Paste Food Colour in Orange.
- Dark chocolate: You can use milk or semi-sweet chocolate if preferred.
- Chocolate orange candies: For topping. I used Terry’s Mini Chocolate Orange Slices.
How to make Chocolate Orange Bark
To make this bark, simply place the white chocolate to a microwave-safe bowl, and heat in 20 second intervals, stirring after each one, until melted and smooth.
Stir in the orange extract, and enough food colouring to reach your desired shade. Set aside.
Melt the dark chocolate in the same way you melted the white chocolate. Pour onto a large baking tray lined with parchment paper, and spread out into a large rectangle.
Spoon the orange-flavoured chocolate on top (use a much or as little as you want), and use a toothpick to swirl the two mixtures together.
Top with your favourite chocolate orange candy. Allow the chocolate to set at room temperature, or in the fridge. Once set, break into pieces, and enjoy.

NOTE: For best results, I highly recommend using the gram measurements (with a digital scale), rather than the cup measurements. Cup measurements are simply not accurate enough, and I cannot guarantee the best results if you use them.

I’m attempting to make a replica of the famous Terry’s Chocolate Orange! Would you recommend mixing both chocolates together (orange flavored white and dark) to make something like that? I have a mold to use to make the little orange slices, and I’m having difficulty finding a recipe for just orange flavored chocolate!
Will the white chocolate seize with the addition of extract and food coloring? I tried adding extract to chocolate in the past and it always seizes. Any tips?
Hi Laura! Make sure you use a high quality white chocolate, and use an oil-based food colouring, or colouring that is made specifically for chocolate. Same goes for flavouring – try and get an oil-based flavouring. Alternatively, you can add a drop of oil to the chocolate when adding a regular alcohol-based flavouring (this will help prevent the chocolate seizing).
Hope this helps!
