Q: Why are chocolate prices increasing at the moment?
A: Chocolate prices are rising due to higher costs of cocoa beans, supply chain disruptions, and increased transportation and energy expenses. Poor weather in cocoa-producing regions has also reduced crop yields, adding to the price hike. For more details, check out our blog post here.

Q: Can I return chocolate products if I’m not satisfied?
A: Unfortunately, due to food safety regulations, we cannot accept returns on chocolate products or any food items once they have been shipped. We ensure that all products are carefully inspected before dispatch to meet our high-quality standards.

Q: Why does my chocolate sometimes have a white coating on the surface?
A: The white coating on chocolate, known as "bloom," occurs when the fat or sugar crystals rise to the surface. This can happen due to temperature fluctuations during storage. While bloom may affect the appearance, it does not impact the taste or safety of the chocolate. The chocolate can still be used as normal.

Q: Is there a difference between couverture chocolate and regular chocolate?
A: Yes, couverture chocolate has a higher cocoa butter content and is specifically designed for tempering and creating a glossy, smooth finish in confections. It’s often used by professional chocolatiers for moulding, dipping, and enrobing. Regular chocolate may not have the same fluidity or texture needed for these specialised tasks.

Q: Are these chocolate chunks suitable for high-temperature baking?
A: Yes, these white chocolate chunks are stable at temperatures up to 200°C, making them ideal for baking applications that require medium to longer bake times.

Q: Do the chocolate chunks melt during baking?
A: No, these chunks are designed to hold their shape and texture during the baking process, ensuring a rich chocolatey bite in your finished products.

Q: How should I incorporate these chunks into my dough?
A: For best results, mix the chunks into the dough at the end of the kneading process to prevent them from melting and to maintain the dough's original colour.

Q: Is this product suitable for vegetarians?
A: Yes, Callebaut's White Bakestable Chocolate Chunks is suitable for vegetarians.

Q: What is the fluidity of Callebaut's White Bakestable Chocolate Chunks, and why is it important?
A: This white chocolate has very low fluidity, which means it is thicker and does not flow as easily when melted. This characteristic makes it ideal for baking applications where you want the chocolate to hold its shape, such as in chocolate chunks for cookies or as a filling in pastries. Low fluidity chocolate is less likely to spread out or blend into other ingredients, ensuring distinct chocolate pieces or layers in your final product.

Q: What is the minimum percentage of dry cocoa solids in this chocolate?
A: Callebaut's White Bakestable Chocolate Chunks contains a minimum of 25% dry cocoa solids.

Q: What is the shelf life of Callebaut's White Bakestable Chocolate Chunks?
A: The shelf life of Callebaut's White Bakestable Chocolate Chunks is 12 months from production when stored under the recommended conditions. The remaining shelf life of the actual product received will vary.

Q: What is the best before date for this product?
A: The best before date for this product can vary depending on our current stock levels and supply. If you need the specific best before date for your order, please send us an email, and we'll provide you with the information as soon as possible.

Q: How should this chocolate be stored?
A: Store Callebaut's White Bakestable Chocolate Chunks in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and strong odours. Ideal storage temperature is between 12°C and 20°C. Avoid storing chocolate in the refrigerator, as this can cause condensation and affect the texture.

Q: Can I freeze chocolate to extend its shelf life?
A: Freezing chocolate is not recommended as it can cause changes in texture and appearance. If you must freeze it, ensure the chocolate is tightly wrapped to prevent moisture from getting in. When ready to use, allow it to thaw gradually in the refrigerator before bringing it to room temperature to avoid condensation.

Q: What packaging options are available for this product?
A: Callebaut's White Bakestable Chocolate Chunks is available in a 10kg box or 2.5kg bag. Please note - these are not the exact same product, there is a slight variance in specification.
