AlFHg 330 Posted December 19, 2019 #325 Share Posted December 19, 2019 In theory white chocolate should not be consider as chocolate because it contains cocoa butter but not cocoa paste, which essentially means that it has more or less good physical properties for cooking purposes (like melting point) but has not the same organolectic properties of chocolate which contains also roasted cocoa seeds (read serotonine and other kinds of small acids, if I remember well). Going back to my work, @phelps would have loved the 85% dark chocolate I used for shell and dark ganache phelps and mrv86 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just made using a different blend of cocoa. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Going back to my work, @phelps would have loved the 85% dark chocolate I used for shell and dark ganache Woah 85% is pretty bitter. I can barely handle 75%, and I love dark chocolate. By the way, has anyone tried Ruby Chocolate? It’s a new type of bean, and it has a very interesting flavor. It’s also naturally pink/purple. “Sport has the power to change the world.

I can easily handle 99% also... however, my favourites are 70% to eat it in purity and 85% for those with aromatic flavour, especially the candied orange peels and the hot pepper chocolate (not together, of course)...

On it’s own, Ruby is my favorite chocolate. It’s got a weird almost berry like after taste, and quite a bit of tang. I prefer milk chocolate when paired with a filling. I’ll take dark chocolate either way, but I prefer 70% or 75%. White Chocolate can go fuck itself. phelps 1 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.
