Description

Discover the Valrhona baking chocolate set, featuring two classic pastry ingredients: Caraïbe 66% dark chocolate and Ivoire 35% white chocolate. This 2 kg set is designed for baking enthusiasts who seek premium ingredients for their gourmet creations.

Caribbean Dark Chocolate 66%

Caraïbe 66% is a dark couverture chocolate, prized for its balanced profile with hints of roasted nuts and wood. Created in 1988, it is made from a complex blend of cocoas from the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Jamaica, and Togo. This chocolate is ideal for ganaches, mousses, creams, and coatings for chocolate candies. Its bean shape allows for rapid melting, and its precise tempering curve ensures a smooth and glossy texture. Pair it with nuts, salted caramel, or spices like cinnamon for delicious creations.

Ivory White Chocolate 35%

Ivory 35% is a lightly sweetened white chocolate with a pearly color and aromas of cooked milk. An iconic product, it's perfect for making ice cream, frozen yule logs, sorbets, creamy desserts, ganaches, and mousses. Used as couverture chocolate, it's ideal for creating homemade molded chocolates and bars. Its tempering curve guarantees a beautifully glossy finish. Pair it with red berries or citrus fruits for contrasting and refreshing recipes. Ivory 35% is made in France, in the workshops of Tain l'Hermitage, showcasing French expertise for sustainable gastronomy.
