Recipe No. 811 Finest Belgian Dark Chocolate Callets 2.5kg Bag

I recently got back from a trip to Belgium. The chocolate there was unreal. I had never had anything so good. I tasted a waffle with melted chocolate on it and just knew that I was going to have to re-create that taste when I came home. Looking for European chocolate in my area produced mostly small, eating chocolates, and I wanted something that I could melt and bake with. These were pricey, and I was kind of nervous about ordering them in the summer because I was afraid they would be melted. To my surprise, they arrived in a little cooler bag with an ice pack, without one melted chip. Now to taste. I was worried these wouldn’t live up to the hype. As soon as I sliced open the bag the entire room filled with the smell of a magical Chocolate shop. Remember how when you were a kid you’d step into the candy store and that smell of lovely sugary sweetness would hit you when you opened the door? It was like that. I tasted one and it just melted in my mouth so deliciously that I had to close my eyes and say a deep Mmmmmmmmm. The flavor is complex. Fruity. Multi layered. It’s not your average candy bar from the store. This is the real thing. This tastes exactly like what I had in Belgium. The bag is over 5 pounds – so a little bit heavier than a bag of flour. It completely filled a gallon Ziploc bag for me. I’m just over the moon that I can finally get chocolate here with the quality I found in Europe. It’s pricey, but it’s definitely worth it. Use this when you’re baking to impress. Don’t waste its greatness on Frenemies. They don’t deserve it.

Callebaut isn't my favorite brand for tempered chocolate, but it's my go-to for most things given its price point. It tempers well and tastes great. I've ordered a few bags from Amazon. The age of them has varied. I've gotten two pretty old bags, and the chocolate was starting to show its age. Can't fault the chocolate for that though. However, I would never order through Amazon in warmer months. Sellers do not insulate or add cooling bags.

If you are searching for the perfect chocolate chip, this is the, by far, the best. It melts beautifully for a ganache, brings chocolate chip cookies to the next level. Large bag? Lasts well in the refrigerator in warm climates. Expensive? Sort of. But if you want top quality, it beats every chocolate chip you can buy at the grocery store. By a mile. Better than Ghirardelli, which costs more.

I am so impressed! The seller packed the chocolate very well, with ice packs and double insulated bags. My Callebaut arrived in perfect condition to (warm!) Orlando. This is A+ service, thank you!! 😻

The bag came double sealed in 2 insulated bags, WITH a leakproof gel refrigerant! Also came with a box labeled fragile and perishable. Giving 5 stars not only for the quality of chocolate but also detail and care that went into the packaging and shipping.

Callebaut has completely changed the game for me. I’ve been using their couverture chocolate to make Easter eggs filled with creamy Brazilian chocolate, and the results have been an absolute hit—every single time. The texture is incredibly smooth, it melts beautifully, and the shine after tempering is just perfect. Not to mention the flavor… rich, deep, and perfectly balanced without being too sweet. It pairs so well with the traditional Brazilian fillings I use—brigadeiro, beijinho, and other favorites. Every year, people wait for my Easter eggs, and I’m convinced a big part of the success is the quality of the chocolate. It elevates everything. Whether I’m molding shells, dipping truffles, or adding a glossy finish, Callebaut never lets me down. If you’re serious about chocolate, especially for handmade sweets or holiday treats, this is the one. Worth every penny!

Chocolate bag came in half a week early in pristine condition, and chocolate tastes great. Wonderful packaging too! The shipping box had some punctures, but inside was a Styrofoam container with the Callebaut Chocolate and some ice packs underneath. No clumped chocolate. Very happy with this, especially since the original delivery date was supposed to get into the 90's temp-wise. Thank you!

I've ordered this item repeatedly. In my latest order from September 2026, the formulation appears to be different. The chip shape and size is different and, to me, the flavor has changed. It is not as "vibrant" a chocolate flavor as it used to be. The last time I ordered was in winter 2026. This is different. I'm bummed. It's fine but not as good. I wish I could reliably find Belcolade chips. They are now my favorite.

I'm a chocolate snob and must have the best... and this is THE BEST! Best texture, best flavour, it's just a superior product for all of my baking needs

Très belle qualité, j'ai hâte de faire les petits gâteaux de Noël, pour gâter tout le monde.

Bonne qualité du chocolat

Some Chocolate chips have melted and solidify, not looking like chocolate chips anymore.. melted chocolate sticks to the packaging zip causing quite a mess
