What does Fleur de Cao taste like? It is a highly aromatic chocolate with a powerful cocoa body, intense bitterness, and elegant floral and fruity undertones.
How do I temper Fleur de Cao 70%? Melt the callets to 45-50 Celsius, cool to 27 Celsius, and gently reheat to a working temperature of 31-32 Celsius.
Can I use this for baking cookies? While it is a professional couverture, it can be used for baking; however, its high cocoa butter content will cause it to melt more fluidly than standard chips.
Is this chocolate vegan-friendly? The ingredients are plant-based and contain no dairy; however, it is produced in a facility that handles milk, so trace amounts may be present.
