Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our advice
Are Valrhona chocolate chips heat-resistant?
Yes, that's what makes them special. Their size and composition are designed to ensure the chips retain their shape and integrity even after baking at 180-200 °C. They melt just enough to release their flavor without collapsing into the dough, unlike simply chopped classic couverture chocolate.
How many chocolate chips per cookie?
Standard recipe: 100-120 g of chocolate chips for 12 cookies, or about 10 g per cookie. For very chocolatey cookies, increase to 150 g per 12 pieces. The 6 kg size contains about 45,000 chips for the dark chocolate variety.
Which size should I choose: 250 g or 6 kg?
250 g for enthusiasts or testing (about 25-30 cookies). 6 kg for pastry shops and bakeries with regular production. The 6 kg professional size offers a better price per kg and an airtight resealable bag.
Can the chocolate chips be used for tempering?
No, the chocolate chips are designed to be baked into dough, not melted and tempered like classic couverture chocolate. For tempering, use Valrhona feves (Caraïbe, Guanaja, Jivara, etc.), which have the right fluidity.
