Description:

About this item:

  • Callebaut 70-30-38 70% Dark Bittersweet Chocolate Callets from OliveNation for Baking & Confectionery
  • Callebaut Recipe Number 70-30-38 has 70.5% Cocoa and 38.9% Cocoa Butter for an Intense, Deep Bittersweet Chocolate Taste with Hint of Fruity Note
  • PERFECT for Baking, Candy Making, Ganache, Molding, Coating & More
  • Lower Fluidity than Other Bitter/Bittersweet Chocolates for Better Blending. Ideal for Molding, Panning, Piping.
  • Packaging Note: For your convenience OliveNation will sometimes re-package products into smaller size containers. Therefore, ingredients we distribute from other brands may not arrive in the original manufacturer packaging.
  • For your convenience, Olivenation re-packaged this item from a larger size Callebaut Bittersweet chocolate couverture into this 2 lb bag. Therefore, the item does not arrive in the manufacturers original packaging. Due to the nature of this product, the chocolate may melt during shipping. This does not ruin the chocolate; the chocolate is perfectly fine. Callebauts 70-30-38NV contains 70% cocoa. Ranked with a fluidity level of 3 (out of 5), this is an excellent general-purpose chocolate. This bittersweet chocolate couverture is excellent for enrobing cakes with a thick layer of chocolate, preparing dense chocolate fillings and ganache, and for piping chocolate decorations. These callets are round drops of pure chocolate, easy to melt or temper, weigh, and store, and great for recipes calling for chunks of chocolate. The callets are made using 100% pure cocoa butter and a dash of vanilla that rounds off the taste with a slight sweet hint. Pure chocolate requires tempering to obtain a high gloss for chocolate making. Occasionally there may be light-coloured streaks or film on the surface of the chocolate. This occurs naturally and is a characteristic of pure chocolate. It will disappear when the chocolate is re-melted. Product of Belgium Ingredients: 70% cocoa solids

    I ordered these, as I was working toward doing the detox program in one of the books that I bought from Bolo. This chocolate was one of the things that was mentioned for the benefits of the 72+% cocoa and that it is better for your health also.I waited for the order to arrive, as I didn't want to have melted chocolate in my mailbox or porch. I was told it was shipping by FedEx, so I figured they would bring it to the door.I waited, and waited and waited, only no chocolate. Then I got to looking and saw that it was showing on Bolo that it delivered on one day and it was by the postoffice.I searched and no box. I contacted the company and they responded, after I had place a missing shipment flag. Although I still didn't have any answers, I only knew that my mailman was my only hope in finding my box.On the day it delivered the first round, he was out for a doctors visit and had a substitute. An "ah ha" moment. My mailman, after I spoke with him, searched high and low for where the sub had delivered my box.Well, as of today, my box was finally delivered to me. Several days late, but in good shape and the product was not melted, as we had some very warm days.Despite the mishap of the delivery system getting this to me, the product is very good and worth the delay.It is not bitter like some dark chocolates, but very smooth in texture and fantastic flavor without the lingering after bite.So, with the exception of the delivery failure/mishap, I will be looking to buy this again. It is really great chocolate!

    Always looking for the perfect cookie, the classic choco-chip cookie is the gold standard. These chips elevate your batch to a THAT level, I wouldn't tell you no lie ! First time buyer, long time repeat customer, that's me. Their customer service department is GREAT, too. Handled a product issue with me QUICKLY.Give it a shot, but make sure you have cold, whole milk available.UPDATE: The seller has upgraded their product packaging, they pack with freezer bags and an well-padded package. The chocolate is STILL AA-grade.

    I continue to be delighted with the chocolate and the company. The callets are mini-chips w/great dark chocolate flavor. At 70.5% cacao, they are a little healthier in small amounts.Cacaoholic promised that shipping to FL even in the hot summer would not melt the chocolate into a block. They do include cold packs.Next to the mailing label on external Cacaoholic packaging, they have large instructions to the Carrier to not leave the package in a hot truck all day, nor leave it in a mail box. My experience has been that Carriers left the package near my door without knocking or ringing the doorbell to indicate delivery. I still had no problem with the callets.

    For those who truly LOVE the TASTE of good, DARK (real) bitter-sweet chocolate . . .You ain't gonna do better than this!NO nasty 'after-taste' at all. We tried all of the usual 'brands', but, were really disappointed with what is being sold to the 'public' these days. Go ahead; try your own 'taste test'. Between THIS, and their 'sister brand' (Van Leer, which is less expensive, but quite difficult to find except in the larger quantities), you just don't get BETTER than this.Want a nice 'treat'?If the 'sharpness' of the dark 'bitter-sweet' chocolate 'gets-to-you':Do THIS and their 53% or 60% product 'mixed' at a 50/50 ratio.Hey . . . some people do NOT like REAL ('extra sharp') Cheddar Cheese.What can I say???

    5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely complex dark chocolate flavor - chocolate chips to use for cookies, candies, cakes & more

    G.G. · April 24, 2015

    I bought this chocolate after going to a cooking class with a Belgium chef and learning to make Molten Lava Cakes. She strongly recommended this brand of chocolate for baking, saying the flavor profile will shine through. They are chocolate chip sized pieces in a large foil bag. When you taste them, they melt smoothly on the tongue, and the complex flavor shines through at the end. A whole new level of chocolate chip that can be used for premium chocolate chip cookies, incorporated into other baked goods, or tempered for candy making. It also is much easier to measure by weight than cutting off a large block. The small pieces help it melts smoothly and easily. This is a chocolate that will appeal to dark chocolate fans if eaten alone. It also can be sweetened and diluted into recipes if desired.

    I ordered this 70.4% dark chocolate, and the chocolate did not come in an original Callebaut chocolate package. It was in a clear plastic resealable package with a small label on it that does not have nearly the same amount of information on it as a real Callebaut package would. Normally the Callebaut packages have information about the chocolate, as well as directions for storing and tempering. The package was however well sealed and the chocolate was of fine quality. By the way, always keep your chocolate in a cool dark place. Chocolate packaging shouldn't be clear like this one was.Callebaut chocolate is delicious and well made, and in my opinion the best bang-for-your-buck when it comes to buying chocolate in bulk. Its made in Belgium and is smooth and delicious. Its my favorite all purpose chocolate, great for making truffles, or pralines, or just to eat!
