What these chocolate batons are and who they are for

Valrhona 48% chocolate batons are bake-stable dark chocolate sticks, 5.3 g each and roughly 300 to a 1.6 kg box, made to be rolled into laminated dough before proofing and baking. They are the standard choice for bakeries, cafes and hotel pastry kitchens producing pain au chocolat, chocolate croissants and other viennoiserie in volume, and for serious home bakers who want the same result.

How to use them

Lay two batons across each rectangle of croissant dough, roll, proof and bake as usual; the batons hold their shape in the oven and soften to a creamy center rather than running out. They also work in brioche, scones and cookies where you want a defined chocolate line instead of chips. Store the box sealed between 60 and 68 F, away from moisture and strong odors.

Pairs well with

For a fruit twist, pair with Valrhona Raspberry Inspiration batons. For the dough itself, bakers reach for Grands Moulins de Paris Gruau Rouge T45 and Beurremont 83% butter. See the full Valrhona collection and all dark chocolate.

Ships nationwide from our JN Kidds Distributors warehouse in Brockton, MA; free local delivery on qualifying orders across Eastern Massachusetts and New England. See all warehouse items.
