History of the Inspiration range
It was in 2016 that Valrhona innovated by creating a new range. The ingredients are simple, fruit, cocoa butter and sugar… However, the technique necessary for the right balance is a feat. This clever alchemy reveals intense aromas and color without preservatives, colorings or artificial flavors. Thus, Valrhona now offers all pastry enthusiasts the opportunity to make colorful and naturally fruity creations. Now let's work with the fruit like chocolate for even more deliciousness. Valrhona’s technical expertise and know-how were awarded the Grand Prix for Innovation at SIRHA 2017.
What to combine the Inspiration Yuzu fruit blanket with?
The tangy aromas of this Inspiration fruit couverture blend pleasantly with fresh notes such as citrus fruits or Timut pepper. Also dare to combine Yuzu Inspiration with bolder notes like balsamic vinegar, aromatic plants (jasmine, lavender, etc.). Finally, Yuzu Inspiration also goes very well with exotic fruits such as coconut or mango.
Tips for using Inspiration Yuzu by the Cité du Chocolat Valrhona
The Inspiration Yuzu fruit couverture lends itself perfectly to fruit ganache. It is also recommended for making delicious and colorful icings. Finally, it also lends itself to making fruit molds or mousses.
It is thanks to teamwork that we have been able to create this innovative range of fruit covers. Despite all the product developments already carried out, Inspiration was a truly innovative project with many challenges that made us grow at Valrhona!
