Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our advice
Are Valrhona chocolate chips heat-resistant?
Yes, that's what makes them special. Their size and composition are designed so the chips retain their shape and integrity even after baking at 180-200 °C. They melt just enough to release their flavor without collapsing into the dough, unlike regular couverture chocolate that has simply been chopped up.
How many chocolate chips per cookie?
Standard recipe: 100-120 g of chocolate chips for 12 cookies, or about 10 g per cookie. For very chocolatey cookies, increase to 150 g per 12 cookies. The 6 kg size contains approximately 45,000 dark chocolate chips.
Which size should I choose: 250 g or 6 kg?
250 g for home bakers or testing (about 25-30 cookies). 6 kg for pastry shops and bakeries that produce regularly. The 6 kg professional size offers a better price per kg and a resealable airtight bag.
Can the chocolate chips be used for tempering?
No, the chocolate chips are designed to be baked into the batter, not melted and tempered like regular couverture chocolate. For tempering, use Valrhona fèves (Caraïbe, Guanaja, Jivara, etc.), which have the right fluidity.
