Barry Callebaut unveils 100% soft-melting, real chocolate for ice cream

Barry Callebaut launches soft melting ice cream inclusions made from 100% chocolate that release a richer and intense chocolate taste than regular chocolate ice cream inclusions.

Unlike standard compound-based drops, ChocMelts inclusions are made from 100% chocolate, offering the unmistakably intense flavor and texture of genuine chocolate.

Because they melt together with ice cream, ChocMelts inclusions release a richer and intense chocolate taste than regular chocolate ice cream inclusions.

The crystalline structure of the cocoa butter ensures a 100% pure chocolate experience, even at the low temperatures of ice cream.

The new soft melting chocolate drops can be blended with ice cream via a standard fruit feeder.

They are available in dark, milk and white chocolate and can in principle be developed to match any taste profile.

The 20kg packs can be stored for up to 18 months in a frozen environment.

Barry Callebaut plans to start shipping this innovation in Europe immediately.

Other regions - such as Americas and Asia - are planned to follow at a later stage.

The ChocMelts inclusions will be made available for the first time at ISM in Cologne this year.
