Valrhona Dulcey, Blonde Chocolate 35%, Callets

Blonde chocolate - a completely new creation from Valrhona. The blond Dulcey has a creamy, indulgent texture. Its biscuit-like, mild sweetness leaves distinctive notes of shortcrust pastry with a hint of salt. With its intense aromas, Dulcey pairs particularly well with caramel, coffee, and hazelnuts, as well as with less acidic yellow fruits such as mango, banana, and apricot. The basic idea for this new chocolate family came about by happy accident. Frederic Bau, from the Ecole du Grand Chocolat Valrhona, had simply forgotten some white Ivoire chocolate in the bain-marie. After years of development, Dulcey, a unique product with truly unusual characteristics, is now entering the world of pastry.
