Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our advice
How should I store a Valrhona chocolate bar?
Store at room temperature between 16 and 18 °C, away from light and moisture. Avoid the refrigerator, which causes condensation and chocolate bloom. In its original packaging, a Valrhona chocolate bar keeps easily for 12 months.
Why has my chocolate bar developed a white coating?
Chocolate bloom is caused by a temperature shock: moving from cold to warm (taking it out of the fridge) causes the cocoa butter to rise to the surface. It's harmless to health and the bar is still edible, but its appearance and texture are affected. To prevent it: store at a stable 16-18 °C.
What temperature should it be enjoyed at?
Take the bar out of storage 30 minutes beforehand to bring it to 18-20 °C. A temperature that's too low dulls the aromas, while a temperature that's too high melts the chocolate before it can release its full profile. The tongue is the most sensitive organ for perceiving the complete profile: let it melt without biting.
Gluten-free? Lactose-free?
Valrhona dark chocolates do not contain gluten or lactose in their recipe. However, they are made in facilities that handle milk and other allergens, so traces may be present. For severe intolerances, always check the label.
