Can chocolate really taste better? According to researchers at the University of Bristol, the answer is yes — with the help of music. They’ve created a song called “Sweetest Melody” that’s designed to enhance the flavor of chocolate.

Dr. Natalie Hyacinth, who composed the piece, reviewed 60 years of scientific research on “multisensory integration” and built the song around sonic qualities proven to influence taste — including pitch, tempo, and harmony.

The track is 64 seconds long, matching the average time it takes for a piece of chocolate to melt in your mouth.
