PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Add a playful layer of texture and rich caramel flavor to your desserts with Valrhona Caramélia Milk Chocolate Pearls. Each crisp, puffed cereal piece is coated in Caramélia 36% milk chocolate, creating a satisfying contrast between a light, crunchy center and a smooth chocolate exterior. Caramélia brings a distinctly indulgent character, with creamy caramel notes complemented by subtle biscuit and gently savory accents. The combination feels familiar and comforting while still giving finished pastries a sophisticated touch.

These little pearls make an especially striking finishing element when you want both flavor and texture to stand out. Scatter them over glazed cakes and entremets, cluster them on individual pastries, or use them to add a crisp surprise to ice cream, bavarois, and mousse. Their caramel and biscuit character also pairs naturally with coffee, chocolate, vanilla, hazelnut, and other warm, rich flavors. For an extra decorative effect, they can be tossed with luster dust to create a sparkling finish or arranged around the rim of a beverage glass. Whether used sparingly for a refined accent or generously for a more playful presentation, Caramélia Milk Chocolate Pearls make it easy to introduce a delicious combination of crunch, caramel, and chocolate to professional pastry creations.
