IS THE CARAMEL FLAVOR ARTIFICIAL? No, the flavor comes from real caramelized ingredients and a hint of fleur de sel, providing a natural and complex taste.
CAN I USE THESE PISTOLES IN BAKING? Yes, they work beautifully in cookies, brownies, and tarts, though they melt more readily than standard baking chips due to the higher cocoa butter content.
