Callebaut features a range of chocolate with different fluidities for different applications. Watch this video to learn which fluidity will work best for your recipes!
Exceptional flavor and appearance starts with using quality ingredients. Use this Callebaut Recipe 70/30 dark chocolate block to bring an indulgent chocolate flavor and an optimal shine and snap to your confectionaries! This Belgian dark chocolate block features an intense roasted cocoa body with bitter notes and hints of fruit, making it an ideal ingredient for boosting the rich chocolate flavor in your creations. The chocolate's roasted notes, acidity, bitterness, and sweetness all blend together perfectly to deliver a complete, balanced, and consistent flavor profile that ensures the chocolate's taste will work across different applications and with a wider range of flavors and ingredients. Because the chocolate features a lower fluidity, this block is great for achieving a perfectly smooth texture in creams and sauces. This dark chocolate block pairs exceptionally well with spicy flavors like cumin or Sichuan pepper, fruity flavors like lime and blueberry, or more intriguing flavors like balsamic vinegar and Earl Grey.
Essential for any bakery, chocolate shop, cafe, or gelateria that uses the finest products. This Belgian dark chocolate block delivers on the quality and consistency you're looking for. Temper the block to create large molded chocolate figures with a hard shell, nice satin gloss, and the perfect snap. Its low fluidity makes it easy to cast large molds with the ideal thickness with just one layer, saving you a considerable amount of time. You can also use it to create silky ganaches for piping, a dense, velvety cremeux or mousse for your specialty dessert menu, or a rich pastry filling for your danishes and pies.
To achieve its perfectly balanced taste, this chocolate is made with a blend of cocoa beans from Ivory Coast, Ghana, and Ecuador. Once the beans have been properly fermented, sun-dried, and selected, they are shipped to Callebaut's state-of-the-art facility in Belgium to undergo quality checks and begin the lengthy process of becoming chocolate. First the beans undergo whole bean roasting, which means they are roasted in the shell. This helps to preserve and develop the delicate flavors and aromas of the cocoa beans. After roasting, the cocoa nibs are separated from the shell and then ground into a fine cocoa liquor, where it is then mixed with premium ingredients to create a chocolate dough. Next, the chocolate dough is refined and then conched to develop the dough into a liquid as well as unify and balance the flavors. Lastly, the chocolate is tempered and molded into a block to be used for endless possibilities!
Crafted in Belgian from bean to bar since 1911, Callebaut's Finest Belgian Chocolate delivers unparalleled workability with the most balanced taste on the market, which is why it is preferred by most chefs around the world. Callebaut partners with the Cocoa Horizons Foundation, a non-profit organization that works directly with farmer groups to improve and empower their livelihoods and communities, to support farmer training and help provide the tools necessary for the farmers to excel at their craft. In fact, with each Callebaut chocolate purchase, Cocoa Horizons reinvests a portion back into the West African and South American farmers and their communities! And since Callebaut buys their beans directly from the cooperatives they work with, all of their products come with a QR code to trace the beans back to the cocoa farmers, providing you with the utmost transparency for your business and customers. Boost your brand by showing your customers that you're committed to using only the finest, sustainably-sourced Belgian chocolate for your products like Callebaut.

I've used this chocolate for a long time, and its always been wonderful in its quality. Its a great tasting chocolate, but has been getting very expensive lately. I've watched prices go up over $ a bag this year alone. I love the chocolate, but I may have to start looking for other options because of the huge price increases.

Amazing chocolate, like nothing compares in taste (trust me I tried everything on webs) but the prices have gone from $1~ to $ now. I swapped to using lesser quality to save $$$. Sad.

Callebaut Chocolate is premium quality. This white is very creamy, melts well and tastes so much better than fake white chocolate melts. I use it for Bark and coating strawberries, baked goods and filled artisan chocolates.

Bought this because we can no longer find our #10 semi sweet chocolate bar. We were a little hesitant at first, but honestly the difference is hardly noticeable. This chocolate melts so amazing for our glaze/ganache and has such rich flavor. Highly recommend using this for glazing, its beautiful

These are absolutely wonderful. Taste like caramel white chocolate. I thought they might taste similar to the Valroha Dulcey, but they do not. Not a bad thing, just different.

As a pastry chef in a high-volume restaurant, I recently used the Callebaut Recipe 70/30 Dark Chocolate Block (11 lb, Item #725CAL7030) to create ganache for truffles and a chocolate sauce, and it was exceptional. This Belgian dark chocolate, with 70.5% cocoa solids from Ivory Coast, Ghana, and Ecuador beans, delivers a balanced, intense flavor with roasted cocoa, bitter notes, and subtle fruity hints

Thank you for properly wrapping the chocolate bar so it wouldn't melt during shipping. A purchase from another vendor of the same chocolate in chip form arrived completely melted as it travelled through Phoenix in late summer.

It came quickly once shipped. Very great quality as usual. Pro-tip from my experience, If you order after Wednesday, don't expect it to ship until the following Monday since it's perishable.

This semi-sweet chocolate melts like a dream, and is super easy to work with. It's very smooth, and does not leave any chunks or pieces unmelted. It has a very nice rich brown color. I've never tried callets before, but now I am hooked.

some of the best tasting chocolate ive had. it works great for whatever your chocolate needs, i just use it at home for things like molten lava cake and am already on my second bag

Best quality chocolate, does not really need reviews. We use it for our French macarons. Enough said.
The white chocolate is balanced, fresh, and has a silky texture. There is a good amount of sweetness without being overpowering. There are also some nice milk undertones to round out the overall taste. Callebaut is my go-to brand for most chocolate applications.

Gorgeous color very interesting taste it's like a slightly sour white chocolate and if you read the ingredients you see it's pretty much just white chocolate with citric acid but I made Italian meringue buttercream with this and customers really liked it the shtick

Love this product our chef working only with this kind Costumers choosing only the best test . Melting Realy good and Realy easy to work with
Absolutely love this Ruby chocolate. It has a velvety smooth mouth feel, and melts wonderfully. It tempers slightly different than a milk or dark chocolate, but not so much that it is difficult to use. It sets very quickly, and has a beautiful finish. The very slight hint of berry/acidic notes work to just cut the richness that this chocolate has. My clients loved it, and it offered a new and innovative product to our area.
This chocolate was very easy to use. This was my first attempt at a drip cake. It was for an 85 year old male who likes liquorice all sorts. A Bertie Bassett cake seemed perfect. The chocolate melted easily when mixed with the hot double cream and ran nicely. Its a top quality product with a good flavour. Will definitely stick with this make of chocolate for future cakes.
