Jivara 40% Milk Chocolate Valrhona – Couverture Chocolate in Beans
The Jivara 40% is the benchmark milk chocolate for culinary professionals. Unlike classic milk chocolates, Jivara captivates with its powerful and unique aromatic profile. It offers dominant notes of malted cocoa, balanced by a creamy milkiness and hints of natural vanilla.
