Ideal for chocolatiers, pastry chefs, and ice cream makers, this pure paste is a versatile ingredient that allows professionals to fine-tune the cocoa intensity of their creations. Whether blended into ganaches or incorporated into rich chocolate glazes, Macaé 54% comes in 3 x 1kg slabs and adds a remarkable depth of flavour while maintaining a silky texture.
