PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Valrhona Raspberry Inspiration Batons bring a fresh, fruit-forward twist to classic viennoiserie. Made from Valrhona’s celebrated Raspberry Inspiration, these bake-stable chocolate sticks deliver the lively flavor of raspberry with a beautifully balanced profile that is tart, subtly sweet, and naturally vibrant. Each baton is designed to tuck easily into croissants, pain au chocolate, brioche, laminated pastries, and other baked creations where a clean, consistent fruit-chocolate center is desired.

Formulated for excellent stability during baking, Raspberry Inspiration Batons hold up beautifully in the oven while adding the bright, coulis-like flavor of raspberry to every bite. Their high fruit content helps capture the taste of freshly cooked raspberry, making them a standout option for chefs and bakers looking to add color, flavor, and a polished Valrhona finish to their pastry case.

Each stick measures approximately 7 cm and weighs about 7 g, offering a practical, portion-controlled format for professional production. Use them as a modern alternative to traditional chocolate batons, pair them with dark or white chocolate, or combine them with almond, pistachio, vanilla, citrus, or rose for elegant flavor combinations. With their bold raspberry character and dependable baking performance, Valrhona Raspberry Inspiration Batons make it easy to create viennoiserie that feels both classic and refreshingly new.
