Frequently asked questions
Do Choco Pearls melt on contact with a cake?
The chocolate coating melts from 28-30 °C. Keep the decorated cake cool (8-18 °C) and take out 30 minutes before serving for optimal tasting temperature without melting.
Why has the metallic shine dulled after a few days?
The edible metallic coating dulls when exposed to moisture or temperature changes. Store in the original airtight bag and use within 24-48 hours after placing on the cake.
Difference between Choco Pearls and Mini Sugar Beads?
Choco Pearls have a melting chocolate center that offers a rich taste, while Mini Beads are hard crunchy sugar. Choose Choco Pearls for tasting, Mini Beads for decoration stability.
Compatible with all types of icing?
Compatible with fondant, ganache, and whipped cream. Avoid very wet royal icing which can melt the metallic coating. Prefer placing on crystallized ganache.
Pearl Red tip?
XXL Pearl Balls weigh more than classic beads: press firmly for good adhesion to the icing.
