VALRHONA Almond Inspiration, Nuts Chocolate Couverture

Valrhona

$54.00

The first of its kind, ALMOND INSPIRATION features the creamy texture of chocolate with the sweet intensity of pure natural almond. It was designed collaboratively with Valrhona customers and an almond pressing specialist.

Ground almonds are mixed with cocoa butter, sugar, and lecithin to create a completely unique product with all the freshness of almonds in the form of a chocolate.

Inspiration is made from processed fresh fruit of the very finest quality, whose intense color and flavor combine wonderfully with the unique texture of cocoa butter. Despite its very simple composition, Inspiration is a revolutionary product whose design required highly complex technical solutions. Inspiration contains no artificial color or flavor.

Summer Shipping:

At above 26°C, cocoa butter in chocolate products may start melting, and recrystallize as white streaks or marks on the chocolate's surface. This phenomenon is called 'fat bloom'. While it may not have the perfect appearance, bloomed chocolates are safe to eat and use in recipes.

During summer months when the temperature is relatively warm, we advise adding cold packaging to your shipment in order to minimize the risk of melting. While we are careful and diligent in maintaining the temperature of your package, we unfortunately cannot guarantee the products in the cold packaging will not be affected by unusually warm weather and irregular transit time.
