For the pleasure of making.

The compound collections have their own place within L’Étoile. Unlike Royal couverture, their published ingredient lists use vegetable fat rather than cocoa butter as the principal added fat. Classic and Delight remain separately identified ranges, so you can request the specification that matches the product you choose.

At your table

PMC lists applications including dessert mixtures, coatings, fillings and pastry decoration. Explore a finishing layer for small pastries or a decorative detail for a dessert platter. Check the working guidance for the selected compound rather than assuming it behaves like couverture.
