Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between vegan and plant-based?
The term “plant-based” refers only to the origin of the ingredients (from plants). The term “vegan” goes further: it guarantees the complete absence of animal-derived ingredients throughout the production chain, with no animal testing. Amatika is certified Vegan by the French Vegetarian Association (AVF).
How does Amatika replace milk?
In Amatika Blanc 35%, milk powder is replaced by 21.8% defatted almond powder. In Amatika 46% (the milk alternative), it is 16.1% almond powder. The result: a naturally sweet, roasted almond flavor profile.
Can Amatika be tempered like classic chocolate?
Yes, in exactly the same way. The tempering curves are almost identical to those of traditional white and milk chocolates (40–45°C / 26–28°C / 28–31°C, depending on the reference). No adjustments to your professional practices are necessary.
What flavors pair well with Amatika?
Amatika 46% pairs well with orange blossom, jasmine, almond paste, banana, peach, and lemon. Amatika Blanc 35% pairs well with cherry, rhubarb, anise, violet, black truffle, rosemary, as well as raspberry, lemon, and coconut.
Is Amatika suitable for people who are lactose intolerant?
Yes. Amatika contains no dairy products. However, it is made in a facility that handles milk (traces may be present). For severe allergies, check the package label for the exact wording.
