Ruby chocolate’s fruity taste calls for bold and unusual food pairings. But pay close attention when working with ruby chocolate to ensure the chocolate keeps its original flavor and color.

Ruby cocoa beans, get to know their terroir/taste/pairing

Like grapes for fine wines, cocoa beans are influenced by the terroir in which they grow. The ruby cocoa bean grows in the unique climate conditions of Ecuador, Brazil and Ivory Coast. This true gift of nature’s exceptional composition results in the natural ruby color of the fourth chocolate – without adding any colorants or fruit flavorings.

Ruby’s fruitiness and slightly sour profile unlock creative ideas for confectionery, cakes & pastries, biscuits and many more. And with its all-round fluidity, ruby chocolate is perfect for a wide range of technologies, ranging from confectionery molding and enrobing, to pastry mousses, etc.

Ruby chocolate’s delicious, intense berry flavor also works well with the most unusual combinations. From salted caramel, spices like pepper, or herbs like rosemary, to unexpected ingredients like wasabi or exotic fruits such as lychee or mango, the possibilities are endless. Food lovers will be delighted with the variety of dishes and drinks that ruby chocolate can accompany: bold cheese like Roquefort or Camembert, caviar, rosé champagne and wine, fruity beers and even green tea or saké.

How to store Ruby chocolate?

When using ruby chocolate be mindful that it is sensitive to moisture, oxygen and light. We advise storing it in its original packaging to maintain the color and shape. The chocolate works well with fat-based fillings, but needs care when used in combination with water-based ingredients. Keep in mind that it is also unstable when baked and unsuitable for extrusion.
