Critical Success Points

  • Melt the chocolate to the correct temperature (40‑45 °C).
  • Cool precisely to 34‑35 °C before adding the cocoa butter.
  • Incorporate the Mycryo cocoa butter without losing temperature.
  • Maintain the working temperature between 31‑32 °C during pouring.
  • Cut the shapes when the chocolate is semi‑firm to avoid cracking.

Safety Warnings

  • Melted chocolate reaches high temperatures; handle with care to avoid burns.
  • Keep the Mycryo cocoa butter frozen until the moment of addition to avoid contamination.
  • Use dry utensils; water causes chocolate to seize.
