Technological notes
Lux chocolate contains approximately 60% cocoa solids — significantly higher than standard GOST dark chocolate. This high cocoa content produces a more intense, complex flavor with pronounced bitterness and deep chocolate aroma. Extended conching (16–72 hours) is recommended to develop the full flavor potential and smooth out any harsh or astringent notes. Tempering at 30–32 °C working temperature.
TS = total solids.
