Experience Iconic Ivoire 35%
Ivoire’s subtle sweetness and warm milk taste with hints of vanilla is a perfect recipe for nostalgia. Less sweet and more nuanced than many white chocolates on the market, Valrhona’s Ivoire is well-known and beloved by chefs for its ability to shine a spotlight on other flavours – especially red berries and citrus fruits!
The creamy, smooth texture and pale, almost iridescent colour of Ivoire 35% makes it perfect for creating decadent ice creams and delicious sorbets. It also lends itself well to any chocolate or pastry application, including mousses, creams and ganache, as well as moulding chocolate bars and bonbons.
Part of Valrhona’s Indulgent range, Ivoire 35% is a perfectly balanced, versatile and delicious white chocolate couverture with fantastic workability and a wide range of ideal uses. It’s easy to see why chefs and chocolatiers adore Ivoire!
