Technical tips to work with ruby chocolate successfully

Ruby chocolate is perfect for all confectionery applications from tablets and pralines to hollow figures and countlines. To create an indulgent experience you can combine ruby chocolate with fat-based fillings, like chocolate and nut fillings, but be careful when used in combination with water-based ingredients (cream, ganaches, fruit fillings). 

In terms of packaging, we recommend doing a shelflife test in the chosen packaging to make sure ruby keeps it unique color and flavor. If you are looking for packaging recommendations, we suggest using airtight (sealed) packaging and protection from light.

Next to confectionery, Ruby chocolate is also a golden opportunity for Bakery & Pastry. Ruby coated biscuits or cream cakes taste delicious. To bring the ruby experience to the next level, we launched 4 different ruby decorations that can be used in cereal mixes or as decorations on cakes & pastries. 

Keep in mind that Ruby chocolate is not stable when baked and not suitable for extrusion applications. It is also sensitive to water containing ingredients like cake and buttercream so it needs to be carefully managed when used in these applications.
