Discover the 2kg set of Valrhona baking chocolates, combining Guanaja 70% dark chocolate and Dulcey 35% blond chocolate. This duo is designed for baking enthusiasts who want to explore varied flavors and unique textures in their gourmet creations.

Dulcey blond chocolate 35%

In 2012, Valrhona revolutionized the world of chocolate by introducing Dulcey, the fourth color of chocolate. Made from caramelized white chocolate, Dulcey 35% offers a smooth, enveloping texture with biscuity, subtly sweet notes. Its golden blonde color and shortbread flavor with a hint of salt make it a nostalgic and addictive experience. Perfect for ganaches, creams, coatings, and more, Dulcey pairs wonderfully with fruits like apricot, banana, and mango, as well as with coffee and hazelnut. Made in France, Dulcey is an ode to creativity and daring.

Guanaja 70% Dark Chocolate

Guanaja 70% is a must-have for pastry enthusiasts, offering exceptional cocoa intensity. Crafted from cocoa beans sourced from seven distinct terroirs, Guanaja boasts a unique blend with roasted notes, a subtle bitterness, and aromas of dried fruit. Ideal for mousses, creams, and ganaches, this dark couverture chocolate enhances the natural aromas of cocoa. Guanaja pairs perfectly with ingredients such as salted caramel, dried fruit, and ginger, creating bold combinations with red berries and spices.
