Unlike white chocolate, which is mostly sweet and creamy, Ruby will surprise you with its boldness. The moment it melts on your tongue, you'll pick up on distinct notes of red berries and raspberries, along with a gentle acidity that balances the sweetness of the cocoa butter. Cocoa solids content sits around 47%, making it a full-fledged chocolate with a rich texture. The pack contains 400 g of small chips that melt evenly and quickly thanks to their size, so they're a genuine pleasure to work with.
Handy kitchen tips
Ruby chocolate has its own quirks worth keeping in mind. To preserve its beautiful color and ideal texture, it needs to be tempered at slightly lower temperatures than classic dark chocolate. If you're planning to mix it into creams or ganache, remember that its acidity can react with certain dairy components, so we recommend always testing a small sample first. It pairs beautifully with pistachios, passion fruit, or even unconventional ingredients like a pinch of pink salt.
These chips are practically made for homemade pralines, where their color really pops through a thin shell. They also work wonderfully as the base for a luxurious hot chocolate with a distinctive rosy hue thanks to Ruby. If you love decorating, just melt the chips slightly and create delicate splatters on a light-colored cake or cheesecake. The 400 g pack gives you just enough to tackle several smaller projects or one impressive celebration cake for the whole family.
Storage and care
To keep the chips in top condition, store them in a dry, dark place at a temperature between 12 and 20 degrees. Chocolate readily absorbs surrounding odors, so an airtight container is your best friend. If you have leftovers, seal the pack tightly to keep out moisture, which can cause a grayish bloom on the surface. It doesn't affect the taste, but it would be a shame on such a beautiful chocolate.
