Chocolate - Bittersweet - 1 kg Callets

This bittersweet chocolate (couverture) is excellent for eating, enrobing cakes with a thick layer of chocolate, preparing dense chocolate fillings and ganache, and for piping chocolate decorations. These callets are round drops of pure chocolate, easy to melt or temper, weigh, and store, and a divine taste in recipes calling for chunks of chocolate. The callets are made using 100% pure cocoa butter and a dash of natural Madagascar Bourbon vanilla that rounds off the taste with a slight sweet hint. Pure chocolate requires tempering to obtain a high gloss for chocolate making.
70.4% cocoa solids.
1 kilogram/2.2 pound bag.
Kosher (dairy) [not repackaged under kashrut supervision].
Callebaut Dark Chocolate, 70-30-38NV. Product of Belgium.
This item has been repackaged from a larger size and is not in the manufacturer's original packaging.
Note: Due to the nature of this product, the chocolate may melt during shipping. This does not ruin the chocolate; the chocolate is perfectly fine. Occasionally there may be light-coloured streaks or film on the surface of the chocolate. This occurs naturally and is a characteristic of pure chocolate. It will disappear when the chocolate is re-melted.
Customer Review: Good chocolate.
The chocolate flavor shines in this bittersweet chocolate. The "callets" are the right size for melting easily (I used them for truffles). This is good chocolate, worth the price.
