PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Valrhona - Chocolate Batons 48% - 300 ct make it easy to create beautifully chocolate-filled viennoiserie with a rich, balanced dark chocolate flavor. Made with 48% cocoa, these specially shaped batons offer powerful cocoa notes complemented by natural vanilla, bringing a satisfying chocolate center to baked pastries. Their firm structure is designed specifically for baking, helping the chocolate maintain its shape while the surrounding dough transforms into a golden, flaky finish.

Perfect for classic pain au chocolat and chocolate croissants, these batons can also be used throughout a range of sweet yeast-raised pastries and viennoiserie. The 8 cm length provides a practical format for rolling into laminated dough, while the molded shape is designed to sit neatly within the pastry without piercing the dough. Each box contains approximately 300 batons, giving professional bakeries and pastry kitchens a ready supply for consistent production. Whether you're preparing traditional French-style viennoiserie or adding a rich chocolate center to your own pastry creations, Valrhona Chocolate Batons provide dependable performance and distinctive chocolate flavor from bake to finish.
