Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our advice
What is couverture chocolate?
Couverture chocolate has a high cocoa butter content (generally more than 31%) and is intended for professionals. Its fluidity makes it suitable for coating, molding, and all fine chocolate-making techniques. Valrhona has produced couverture chocolate exclusively since 1922.
What is the difference between fèves and pistoles?
There is no difference in quality: fèves are drop-shaped, while pistoles are flat discs. Both melt in the same way. Valrhona has traditionally made fèves, but also offers some products in pistole form depending on the market.
How many fèves are in 100 g?
About 35 to 40 Valrhona fèves per 100 g (varies by product). A convenient format for precise gram-by-gram measuring without weighing once you get used to it.
Is tempering required?
For uses where the chocolate remains visible and solid (molding, coating, decoration): yes, essential for shine, snap, and shelf life. For uses where it is mixed in (mousses, ganaches, biscuits): not required, simply melting it is enough.
How should Valrhona chocolate be stored?
Ideally stored at 16-18 °C in a dry place, away from light and odors. Avoid the refrigerator (condensation = blooming). In a resealed bag, keeps for 18 months. No problem if the chocolate blooms slightly: it is still suitable for baking.
