The 811 recipe in 5 kg block form. Same chocolate as our callets — 54.5% cocoa, balanced roasted flavour, the working standard in professional kitchens — supplied as a solid wrapped block.
If you melt in volume, blocks are the better buy. Lower price per kilogram, less surface area exposed to air in storage, and no loss to the bottom of a callet bag.
The trade-off is handling: chop before melting, and portioning means cutting rather than weighing.
Working notes
- Cocoa solids: 54.5% minimum
- Fluidity: 3 of 5 — medium
- Working temperature: 31–32°C
- Format: 5 kg wrapped block
Best for
Volume melting, ganache, enrobing, moulding, baking. This is the chocolate most kitchens run through in the largest quantity, which is exactly where the block format pays.
Callets or block?
Choose callets when you temper by seeding, portion frequently, or work in smaller batches — the disc format is built for both.
Choose the block when you melt 3 kg or more at a time, run a tempering machine, or want the lowest cost per kilogram.
