Mini Smarties-Style Chocolate Beans 5.5kg – Topping for Waffles, Ice Cream & Sweet Treats
These chocolatey mini beans are all about colour, crunch and fun. Think Smarties-style sweets with a crisp sugar shell and a chocolate-flavoured centre — perfect for topping waffles, crêpes, sundaes and more.
Packed in a 5.5kg bulk box with a blue food bag inside, they're made for busy dessert bars, ice cream kiosks and cafés that get through loads of toppings. Made from chocolate compound (with cocoa powder and vegetable oil instead of cocoa butter), they give you all the look and taste without the high cost of real chocolate.
What to Use These Mini Lentils On
• Belgian waffles, bubble waffles and crêpes
• Ice cream sundaes and dessert tubs
• Cupcakes, brownies and cookies
• Pick ‘n’ mix cones and takeaway dessert boxes
How to Get the Best Out of Them
• Add just before serving — especially on warm desserts
• Store somewhere cool and dry to keep them crisp
• You can bake them into cookies, but colours may run a bit
• Easy to scoop, pour or weigh for consistent topping
Why Compound Works So Well
You still get that chocolatey taste and rainbow look, but with a much lower cost per portion — ideal when chocolate isn’t the star and the fun is in the colour and crunch.

While we strive to provide accurate product information on our website, manufacturers may occasionally change their ingredient lists or packaging. The information on our website is for reference purposes only. We recommend not solely relying on this information. Always read product labels, warnings, and directions before using.
A: They’re made from chocolate-flavoured compound — using cocoa powder and vegetable oil instead of cocoa butter. That gives a similar chocolate-style taste at a much lower cost.
Q: Are these like Smarties?
A: They’re similar in look — colourful mini lentils with a crisp shell and chocolatey centre — but Smarties are made with real milk chocolate. These use chocolate compound for better cost control.
Q: Why use compound chocolate instead of real chocolate?
A: Compound chocolate replaces cocoa butter and chocolate liquor with cocoa powder and vegetable fats. It’s much more cost-effective, especially for toppings where appearance and texture matter more than intense chocolate flavour.
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: What are they best used for?
A: Topping waffles, crêpes, ice cream, cupcakes, sweet tubs and more. They're great for colour and crunch, not intense chocolate flavour.
Q: Will they melt on hot desserts?
A: Yes, they will soften or melt if exposed to heat. Add them after cooking, just before serving.
