  NOTE:
  -----

  SELECTING THE RIGHT CHOCOLATE:  You'll find three basic types of chocolate
  in the baking supplies department of most supermarkets--semisweet
  chocolate, unsweetened chocolate, and sweet chocolate.  The semisweet
  chocolate is made from chocolate that is just slightly sweetened with
  sugar.  Unsweetened chocolate is the original baking or cooking chocolate
  and has no added flavorings or sugar.  And sweet chocolate, such as the
  German cooking chocolate used in the Chocolate Pots de Creme recipe, is
  chocolate mixed with sugar and sometimes additional cocoa butter or
  flavorings.
