100% hazelnuts in a smooth, golden paste.
For its pure nut pasten Callebaut® selects the finest hazelnuts from orchards in Spain, Italy and Turkey. Picked when they're fully sunripe, the hazelnuts are stored under the best conditions – away from light, temperature changes or air for max. 12 months. They're shelled max. 12 hours before they're roasted to protect their essential oils and preserve their delicate, fruity flavours. The hazelnuts are then mildly roasted and finely ground into a pure, smooth, golden paste.
Pure hazelnut paste brings out an intense hazelnut flavour with lovely toasted flavours and delicate fruitiness. It’s a great base to mix with chocolate to create praline fillings with a very pure and intense hazelnut taste. And of course, they make for a great base to flavour ice creams, patisserie cremes and dessert cremes with a pure, unsweetened hazelnut taste.
In many kitchen today, staff is scarce and there’s only 24 hours in a day. So making caramels from scratch is not always an option. With Callebaut’s Caramel, that changes: you can count on a genuine, great tasting caramel made with the best ingredients and without any artificial flavours or colourings. It has a deep & bold caramel taste and golden-brown colour, typical for home-made caramels. And the best part: it’s there, close at hand, without increasing the workload of your staff!
Our chefs elaborated the caramel recipe in such a way that it's easy to work with and allows you to use for anything from filling in bonbons to topping your desserts. It has a short tail for perfect piping in small delicacies such as bonbons or bars. And it’s firm enough to be perfectly versatile to also top cakes, pastries and desserts or flavour your creams and cremeux. Moreover, the new caramel is easy to tune with your own personal touch: mixing in fleur de sel or crunches, or mixing with chocolate to create chocolate fudge.
