Frequently asked questions
Do Valrhona chips withstand oven baking?
Yes, that is their specific feature. The sizing and composition are designed so that 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 classic couverture chocolate that is simply chopped.
How many chips per cookie?
Standard recipe: 100–120g of chips for 12 cookies, or approximately 10g per cookie. For very chocolatey cookies, increase to 150g per 12 cookies. The 6kg format contains approximately 45,000 dark chocolate chips.
Which size should I choose: 250g or 6kg?
250g for home bakers or testing (approximately 25–30 cookies). 6kg for pastry shops and bakeries that produce regularly. The professional 6kg format offers a better price per kg and an airtight resealable bag.
Can the chips be used for tempering?
No, the chips are designed to be baked into dough, not melted and tempered like classic couverture chocolate. For tempering, use Valrhona fèves (Caraïbe, Guanaja, Jivara, etc.), which have the appropriate fluidity.
