Details

The Guittard 10 lb. French Vanilla 54% dark chocolate bar has been carefully made from bean to bar, crafted with generations of French artisan chocolate-making experience. With a perfectly balanced semi-sweet chocolate flavor with lingering notes of warm vanilla, this bar is made with superior ingredients to showcase the natural terroir and post-harvest practices. When making this chocolate, Guittard only uses a special blend of non-GMO certified cacao beans with respect to Mother Nature, transforming the natural beauty of cacao into a stunning chocolate bar. For further improvements on their chocolate's flavor and quality, Guittard continuously works with the government and local organizations in the cacao's country of origin, protecting the natural flavor profiles of the regions' cacao to ensure the unique taste and aroma for all of their chocolates.

Monitoring every step in the chocolate making process is essential for Guittard as they pride themselves on achieving the most natural flavor profile, ensuring eco-friendly and long-lasting growing practices, and equality for all of their growers. Guittard then invests in various ways of naturally fermenting cacao beans to develop certain flavor characteristics, and then sun drying beans that are specifically raked in traditional drying patterns. From there, the beans are shipped to Guittard's state-of-the-art headquarters in California to finish the carefully curated process of turning naturally grown cacao into Guittard's famous chocolate.

Essential for any bakery, chocolate shop, or restaurant and cafe that uses the finest products, this chocolate is more than an ingredient: it is the multi-dimensional element that takes your recipe to the next level. Temper this chocolate to create the perfect set, snap, and shine to coat your truffles, fresh fruits, or to create chocolate masterpieces to adorn cakes or make into showpieces. Melt the chocolate to use as an ingredient when baking airy souffles, spongy cakes, rich ganache, silky pastry cream, or smooth ice cream. Or, roughly chop this bar for the ultimate chocolate chunks to fold into your batters for signature, premium baked goods. Plus, as a 10 lb. chocolate bar, your business will always be in good supply with premium chocolate for your high-quality confections.

For five generations, Guittard has been endlessly evolving their artisanal craft to bring the most flavorful, sustainable, and socially responsible chocolate to the industry. During the California Gold Rush in the mid 1800's, Etienne Guittard discovered the demand his chocolate garnered among the wealthy chocolate miners and, with his newfound passion, grew his business into a leader in the chocolate industry. Through their stewardship, Guittard has donated funding, time, and product to community projects across America, worked to continually reduce their environmental impact, and empowered their cacao growers in order to obtain a chocolate that contains optimal flavor, quality, and value. At Guittard, their chocolate not only enhances flavor profiles, but helps them unite the world through social responsibility, sustainability, and equality. It's true what they say: chocolate cures all.

Dark Chocolate

Horribly tempered. Not good for using as seed for tempering other chocolate without tempering it properly first.

Thank you for your review, Carolyn! Please check out the Resources & Downloads section for assistance with tempering and seeding. If you need further assistance, please reach out to Customer Solutions!

Bittersweet Chocolate

This bar came fully in tact and was extremely high quality. I broke it up into about 1 lb sections to vacuum seal to use for baking projects. I cut them into smaller pieces to make some of the best chocolate chip cookies and brownies I've ever made!

Flavor:
White Chocolate

This is some of the best tasting white chocolate I have ever tasted. I will say this, it arrived broken and broken very badly. Actually punctured the bag it was in, making it exposed during shipping. Webstrauntstore fixed the problem, but if you are buying this and expect to store it flat, it will be hard to do if broken.
