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.

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.
