Chocolate couverture contains at least 32 percent Cocoa Butter. This is a higher percent than most Chocolate, but gives couverture its shiny appearance, smooth texture, and thin consistency. Chocolate couverture must be tempered to work with, but well worth the effort. Chocolate couverture can be used in any recipe for which Chocolate is called for, is ideal for dipping Chocolate Truffles, and is excellent for eating out of hand.
