This is chocolate before it becomes chocolate — no sugar, no cocoa butter added, nothing but the bean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe flavour is intense and dry: deep roasted cocoa with a clean bitterness and a faint fruit note underneath, depending on the origin. The texture is the reason most chefs buy them — a firm, dry crunch that survives moisture where a wafer or a biscuit inclusion would soften.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWorking notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComposition:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% roasted cocoa beans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 kg bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTexture:\u003c\/strong\u003e dry, firm crunch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSugar:\u003c\/strong\u003e none\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePress into the base of moulded bonbons for texture. Scatter over glazed entremets, tarts and travel cakes. Fold into ice cream and gelato at the end of churning. Press onto the sides of a ganache-covered cake. Crush finer and fold into cookie or brownie dough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlso worth knowing: nibs steeped in warm cream make an excellent infusion for ganache — cocoa flavour without additional chocolate or sugar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePairs with\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDark chocolate, coffee, orange, raspberry, sea salt, olive oil, caramel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA note on balance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNibs are assertive and completely unsweetened. Used generously in a low-sugar dessert they can read harsh. Start with less than instinct suggests and adjust — a light scatter usually does more than a heavy one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eStorage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSealed, cool and dry, away from light and strong odours.
