Details

The Guittard 6.6 lb. Creme Francaise 31% white chocolate wafers have been carefully made from bean to cocoa, crafted with generations of French artisan chocolate-making experience. With a fresh cream flavor, nutty notes, and subtle hints of citrus that create a French-style white chocolate, these wafers are made with all-natural ingredients to showcase the natural terroir and post-harvest practices. When making these wafers, Guittard only uses a proprietary blend of Fair Trade certified cocoa butters with respect to Mother Nature, transforming the natural beauty of cacao into uniform white chocolate discs.

Essential for any bakery, chocolate shop, or restaurant, cafe, and gelateria that uses the finest products, these wafers are more than an ingredient: they are the multi-dimensional element that takes your recipe to the next level. Temper these wafers 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 wafers to use as an ingredient when creating fluffy frostings, rich ganache, silky pastry cream, or smooth ice cream. Or, roughly chop these wafers for the ultimate white chocolate chunks to fold into your batters for signature, premium baked goods.

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 coal 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.

Organic 74% Bittersweet

These wafers are around 22-25mm in diameter and 4mm in thickness. Weight is 160grams/100 count. These are the figures I personally measured. Given these are 74% chocolate, that translates to ~40g sugar content per 100 wafers. If you need to monitor the total sugar in your recipe, this is the figure to watch for. They also serve perfectly as simple treats by themselves. At 74%, I personally feel the sugar and fat content are just about right, not overly sweet as in milk chocolates, nor overly dry/bitter that makes one feel like eating cocoa powder. Webstaurantstore shipped the product with ice packs. By the time I received the product they returned to ambient temperature already. They worked fine since none of the wafers melted, but then I ordered in late April (ground shipping). If you order during summer months, consider the risks. The one thing Guittard definitely need to improve is the packaging. I Read More

Flavor:
Onyx 72% Bittersweet

We bought this when the Coucher du Soleil was out of stock, and feel like it's just as good a dark chocolate. We are currently using it for our peppermint bark!

Flavor:
Prestige 57% Dark

This chocolate works well for filling pastries. It is semi-sweet without much bitterness at all. Because of its low cacao content, it melts easily and is a lot more spreadable than darker chocolate. We use it for filling babka and chocolate croissants.
