Unraveling the Sweet Mystery: What’s the Key Difference Between Chocolate and Compound? Did you know that chocolate mainly uses cocoa butter, while compound uses vegetable fats and oils like coconut or sunflower oil? 💡 This difference allows compound to offer unique melting behaviors and fluidity, making it a versatile choice for various culinary applications. For enrobing, bottoming, and drizzling baked treats, glazing donuts, or molding confectionery, compound is your perfect ally. It ensures the ideal shine, crack, and taste in a variety of colors for all your creations without the need for tempering. 🍩🧇🧁🍪

We are proud to partner with Earthworm Foundation, OIPR - Office Ivoirien des Parcs et Réserves, Nestlé, SECO Economic Cooperation and Development , Touton SA, and COCOASOURCE to protect and regenerate the Cavally Forest in Côte d'Ivoire. This collaboration strongly aligns with our approach to EUDR, as forest protection is an underpinning element in our compliance strategy. It also supports our Forever Chocolate commitment to achieving a forest-positive supply chain by 2025 and net zero emissions by 2050. The Cavally Forest is a vast expanse of 67,500 hectares located in western Côte d'Ivoire. It is one of the largest remaining forest blocks in West Africa, a biodiversity hotspot, and renowned for its exceptional and endemic wildlife species. Phase 2 of this critical project will focus on preventing deforestation in this vital ecosystem, supporting local cocoa farmers, and improving the lives of children in the Cavally communities. We are dedicated to making a lasting, positive impact on the environment and communities in the region. #BarryCallebaut #CavallyForest #ForeverChocolate #ThrivingNature #EUDR
