A resealable bag of milk chocolate drops with a 36% cocoa content. Ideal for all home baking recipes which call for smooth, creamy milk chocolate, such as brownies, cupcakes and chocolate cakes. Smooth on the palate with an incredibly velvety finish and milky flavour.
The shape of these chocolate drops was developed to make them easy to use because they melt easily. This Weiss baking milk chocolate is made with cocoa beans from Vietnam and Madagascar.
Eugène Weiss, the founder and creator of Maison Weiss, was the son of a winemaker. He drew inspiration from the world of wine to create the art of chocolate blending: combining cocoas from various origins, balancing their proportions, and developing recipes that yield truly unique flavours and tasting notes - the same way the greatest wines are created...
He opened his shop in Saint-Etienne. The city, with its gourmet heritage, boasted up to 25 chocolatiers in the 1920s. Saint-Étienne lies on the cocoa route: from Nantes by river and from Marseille by rail. The climate is neither too humid nor too hot, ideal for preserving the beans' character.
Because his workshop became too small, he established his chocolate factory in 1907. Maison Weiss pioneered several innovations. The chocolate factory developed the first catalogues to showcase its chocolates. A few years later, the Maison unveiled its emblem: the first individually wrapped chocolate, the Napolitain.
