The dark chocolate to add deliciously snappy indulgence to your gelato products
Octaaf Callebaut's iconic dark chocolate 811 now comes in a recipe finetuned for gelato makers. It has an intense and balanced dark chocolate taste with rich notes of roasted cocoa and hints of red fruits - optimised to release its full flavour in gelato products such as ice cream sticks or stracciatella.
Thanks to its its high cocoa butter content, Ice Chocolate 811 is very easy to work with: just melt and go - no tempering needed. The chocolate will harden within seconds in or around ice cream and enrobe it with a deliciously snappy layer. It furthermore melts quickly in the mouth to spoil with its intense taste.
Expertly crafted and created from a fine selection of ingredients like caramelised sugar and caramelised milk, this caramel chocolate has rich notes of toffee, butter, cream and an exciting dash of salt. Enjoy its pale amber colour with a golden hue that works well in almost any application.
Tintoretto White is a wonderful base to create your customised fillings with long shelf life. It has a creamy white colour, pleasantly sweet taste and incredibly smooth mouthfeel that immediately melts in the mouth.
Mixing it with textures like ground coffee, cocoa nibs, paillete feuilletine, bresilienne or freeze-dried fruits turns your Tintoretto filling into an exciting praline centre that enhances the taste sensation. Crunchy textures remain fresh and crispy for long when mixed into Tintoretto thanks to its unique recipe and composition. Chocolates or tablets filled with Tintoretto have a long shelf life.
Tintoretto White has a semi-soft texture that can easily be cut into small centres for dipping or enrobing. By mixing, softening and aerating it in the cutter, you'll create a light filling that can be piped into moulded chocolate shells or chocolate bars.

100% dark chocolate drops for baking.
Let your customers indulge in freshly baked cakes, chocolate chip cookies and viennoiserie with extra-big chocolate chips. Baking Drops L have the comforting taste of intense Belgian dark chocolate, and have less cocoa butter in their recipe to make them resist oven temperatures up to 200°C.
With their royal size, Baking Drops L will become your preferred baking chocolate if you're looking into adding more chocolate intensity to your chocolate chip cookies, brownies, muffins, rolls and cakes. They are also great for bakery items that require longer baking times. With their generous size, they don't melt away completely during baking.
Good to know: mix the chocolate drops into the dough at the very end of the kneading process. It will prevent colouring of the dough or melting of the drops during kneading.

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.
Amaze with the most iconic white chocolate.
Recipe N° W2 is another one of Octaaf Callebaut's original recipes that has grown into many chefs' preferred chocolate. This chocolate is as Belgian as can be, since it's predominately made with milk from cows grazing on Belgian pastures and sugar from locally grown sugar beets.
It has a delightful taste with pronounced milky, creamy, caramelly and vanilla notes that are in perfect balance. W2 can be paired with a wide range of ingredients and flavours: from sour to bitter, spices to herbs and from fruits to beers.
With its medium fluidity, this is a great all-round chocolate. Used in chocolate bars or hollow figures, it takes you by surprise with its lovely satin gloss and snappy texture. And fully rely on it to flavour mousses, cremes, ice creams, drinks and sauces.
