Jacques Torres Chocolate 60% Dark Chocolate Baking Discs - 2 Pounds

Just wow! I anticipated being satisfied with this purchase, but satisfaction hardly begins to describe it. This is one of the finest 60% chocolates that I have ever tried, and I have tried a boatload of chocolates from all over the globe over many years. When I opened the bag, I could immediately detect a wonderful chocolate aroma, and no camouflage by any imposter like vanilla. Like a fine coffee roast, you can smell the level of roast of the cocoa, and this was assertive but not in your face burned. It was like the difference between a lovely Viennese roasted coffee compared with an overdone dark and oily French roast. The sheen on each feve/disc told me that no shortcuts were taken in the tempering. The first bite was also telling— not a hint of “waxiness”. Your teeth just sink into the chocolate and it immediately begins to melt and give you a warm, immersive chocolate experience. The aftertaste is just as delicious as the up front taste. No bitter or burnt notes at the finish. I was going to use these feves in two recipes that I have in mind. I think however, that I will need to conduct some more extensive “testing” of this product before I do that! I will get a 2nd bag for the baking, and the missus and I will continue testing this bag.

Really good dark chocolate

Really nice texture and flavor. Used it to make ganache for truffles

I know this might sound crazed but we love dark chocolate! Using this primo choc for everything baking and for a decadent treat at least once a week...the wafers are so chocolate & delectable it only takes 1 or 2 for a sumptuous evening finish. ALSO! It's Summer, it's hot and I rec'd these shipped w/ice packs and arrived perfect. Kudos to seller!!

When I opened the box the ice was completely melted. Luckily I was right there when it was delivered so I can put it in the refrigerator. That aside the chocolate was amazing.

They are pricey, but worth it in my opinion! I made chocolate chip cookies with them and they are super tasty

This is 2nd year I’ve bought this chocolate. Makes my Christmas cookies taste great! Don’t buy the cheap stuff…this what you need.

The bummer was over 25% were melted, so fine for snacking but not baking
