if you use callets mixed with peanut butter do you have to temper the chocolate first I am making homemade crunch bars and I mixed the milk chocolate callebaut callets with honey, peanut butter and coconut oil. But after they are done the chocolate is sticky.
Hi I have just purchased 2 packets of 3drops fluidity from slatterys can you please confirm if i can use this in chocolate chocolate fountain by any chance as the store mentioned I could but I am a bit unsure. Thanks
Hi Mobeen. Thanks for that question, it's indeed a good one. With 3 drops fluidity chocolate you really have an allround chocolate in your hands - which can be applied in quit a varriety of applications. For Chocolate Fountains however we recommend to use a very fluid chocolate with 5 drops indicated on pack (www.callebaut.com/en-OC/chocolate-cocoa-nuts/chd-n811founnv/dark-chocolate-fountains). If you still would use the chocolates you have just pruchased and the consistancy might look a bit too thick in the fountain - just add a bit of cocoa butter, until you reach the fluidity of your desire. (www.callebaut.com/en-OC/chocolate-cocoa-nuts/ncb-hdo3/deodorized-cocoa-butter)
Callebaut Chocolate thank you so much for getting back to me, I will have to use the chocolate I have now as I opened it. Do you know where I could purchase the cocoa butter from in the uk by any chance? Thanks
No problem, Mobeen - it's our pleasure :-) You may find our distribution locations through following link (www.callebaut.com/en-OC/store-locator/professional/offline?popup=true) If there would be any further questions - please don't hesitate to reach out to us
Hi how can a maintain the good fludicity for a retail business. To serve as a melted chocolate on a semicold dessert or waffles ? And how do I store it at the of the shift
Hi I want to make chocolate ganache filling for macaron I bought callebaut 811 with 3 drops. Can you share with me how it works to get the best ganache for macarons ? I use cream 35% fat I do ration 1:1 = turn out too hard Can you help with the correct ratio chocolate 811 : cream to get the best texture and flavor for ganache macarons Thanks Cathrin
Hi HardJob1000 - good question. The best fluidity is a personal opinion of course. If you want a more fluid variant of the chocolate you are using right now (with its "3 drop fluidity", then 70-30-42 might be your ideal choice. This one has a "5 drop fluidity". You want a complete overview of all our offering? Then you can visit this page for more info: www.callebaut.com/en-OC/chocolate-cocoa-nuts?category_level_1=30&category_level_2%5B0%5D=1491 Wishing you the best of luck with making your choice! Best regards
Hi. I am only a few days to placing a chocolate order from you but I don't know which one to buy. I am gone do chocolate bonbons... how many drops should be on the packaging? It is the same for the white chocolate as well? Where do you suggest to buy it from(U.S.A.)? Can you provide me a website link? Thank you in advance. :)
Hi Ada! Nice to e-meet you. A great allround choice is a 3-drop chocolate, this type of fluidity accounts for the most versatile usage possibilities - but it all depends in the end on the application itself: how thick do you want the outside of your bonbon to be (very thin? then we would rather advise a 4-drop chocolate). I would suggest to tell us your precise location and contact details via PM (facebook.com/Callebaut/)? Then we'll send you a list of potential distributors where you can find our products as well as some advice in terms of chocolate choice. :-) Hope this helps! Best regards, the Callebaut team.
Thanks for posting this informative video. I do have a question and wonder if you might help with it even though I am only a home baker and not a professional. I recently purchased one of your chocolates that is more viscous (L-60-40NV) and am using it for baking, in buttercream, etc.. If I want to use it for a different application, say, for dipping chocolates, is it an option to increase the fluidity slightly by adding a bit of cocoa butter once it is melted? Also, what does the lettering system on your webpage chart (L in this case) refer to? Thank you.
That's indeed a very relevant question. For playing with fluidity/viscosity of your chocolate you have a few solutions. First of all, adding a bit of cocoa butter to your current chocolate will make it more fluid indeed. Secondly, you could simply choose another chocolate from the Callebaut Finest Belgian Chocolate range - the letter is one of the manners how we indicate variations in viscosity. The higher the letter is ranked up the alphabet means the less fluid a chocolate is.
Thank you so much for the reply to my question. I have looked carefully at the chart available on the Callebaut website and browsed options for where to purchase it online. It is a bit difficult to locate good sources that offer a range of options. The Callebaut chocolate I have purchased has been absolutely wonderful. Your chocolate has me completely spoiled, and now nothing else will do. I will experiment a bit with adding a small amount of cocoa butter to increase the fluidity of the chocolate I currently have. Being only a home baker I am not in a position to buy very large quantities, so that limits me a bit. Thank you once again for the kind reply and information!

Hi.. one question does the tempering curve differs from 1 drop chicolate to 5 drop chocolate?

@@Callebautchocolate Thanks so much for your swift response. I was really helpful. I will go ahead and PM you on Facebook my location
How does this effect flavour? Does a more fluid chocolate have a thinner mouthfeel, and hence, more "watered down" taste?

How
Tell us what % of cocoa butter each of fluidity drops contains. I only know that 3 drops white chocalte has 26% of cocoa butter.
I have 70-30-38 callets and they have 39% fat.
Sorry, its also a 3 drop chocolate, so I don't think each drop represents a number, the drops factor just collectively represents a workability.
