FAQ — Frequently Asked Questions
- Why use freeze-dried corn in pastry or chocolate making?
- Freeze-dried corn provides a concentrated and original flavor that creates an unexpected taste contrast, especially in chocolate making. Combined with dark or milk chocolate, it offers a sweet-salty balance and a crunchy texture that pleasantly surprises. It is a differentiation ingredient appreciated by artisan chocolatiers.
- Can I use it in a mousse or a wet insert?
- No, this product is hygroscopic and does not resist moisture. It should be used exclusively as a dry surface decoration or included in chocolate masses. In contact with cream or mousse, it absorbs moisture and loses its crunchiness.
- What is the shelf life after opening?
- The shelf life after opening is the same as before opening (12 months), provided storage conditions are respected: between 15 and 25 °C, in a dry place, away from light. This product is less hygroscopic than some other Sosa freeze-dried products, which makes it easier to store once opened.
