This rich creamy tablet bar embodies the pure base flavor we use to build all the confections in our milk chocolate empire. It begins with Guittard Chocolate’s 38% Cacao pistols, which offer a “bold, rich upfront chocolate flavor accented with subtle caramel notes and a lingering hint of cinnamon.” As the pistols are melted down, we add gradually dark chocolate to increase the cacao level to our signature 42% blend.

The Cacao Equation

This rich creamy tablet bar embodies the pure base flavor in all our 42% milk chocolate confections.

We create it by melting down 38% milk chocolate pistols and gradually adding dark chocolate until the combination reaches our signature cacao percentage.

From the Chef: Jean-François prefers to incorporate a “little hint of bitterness” into our milk chocolate base to ensure a good depth of flavor. “Once the chocolate is finished some people can’t tell if it’s milk or dark. I really enjoy that.”
