Callebaut 811 Belgian Dark Chocolate Block

54.5% Cocoa | Real Cocoa Butter | No Palm Oil

Proper Belgian dark chocolate, without the overwhelming bitterness.

There's something particularly enjoyable about a really good dark chocolate. That rich cocoa flavour, the gentle bitterness and the way it slowly melts in your mouth.

Not everyone wants an intensely bitter 80% or 90% chocolate, and that's exactly where Callebaut Recipe No. 811 comes in.

We've introduced these authentic Belgian dark chocolate buttons to our CannaMartJE Confectionary collection because we wanted something a little different from the usual mass produced confectionery.

With 54.5% cocoa solids, Callebaut 811 offers a lovely balance between deep chocolate flavour and just enough sweetness to keep it enjoyable.

Made with genuine cocoa mass, cocoa butter and natural vanilla flavouring, each little button has a smooth texture with rich roasted cocoa notes and a delicate fruity undertone.

REAL dark chocolate, made with cocoa butter

One of the main reasons we've chosen Callebaut is the quality of the ingredients.

Some big chocolate brands replaces cocoa butter with cheaper vegetable fats, including palm oil.

Callebaut 811 uses genuine cocoa butter, with no palm oil listed in its recipe.

Cocoa butter is the natural fat found in cocoa beans. It contributes to the smooth texture and characteristic melt that makes properly made chocolate so enjoyable.

Combined with cocoa mass and a carefully balanced amount of sugar, it produces a dark chocolate that has plenty of cocoa character without tasting overly harsh.

There's no need to rely on palm oil based substitutes when the real ingredients already produce such a lovely result.

Real chocolate. Real ingredients. Real melt.

What does it taste like?

Callebaut 811 is known for its rich, balanced cocoa flavour.

The first thing you'll notice is the deeper roasted cocoa character, followed by a gentle sweetness that softens the natural bitterness.

As the chocolate begins to melt, subtle fruity notes come through, adding a little complexity without overpowering the familiar chocolate flavour.

There's a slight bittersweet finish, but nothing excessively sharp or unpleasant.

Compared with ordinary milk chocolate, it has a fuller cocoa taste and less of that creamy, sugary sweetness. Yet it remains remarkably smooth and approachable.

Responsibly sourced cocoa

Callebaut supports the Cocoa Horizons Foundation, a sustainability programme focused on improving cocoa farming practices, supporting farming communities and encouraging responsible cocoa production.

Recipe 811 combines cocoa beans from Ivory Coast, Ghana and Ecuador, bringing together cocoa from different growing regions to achieve its characteristic balanced flavour.

Callebaut's approach to cocoa sourcing is another reason we've chosen the brand for our range.

We appreciate knowing more about where ingredients come from, especially when the quality of the original cocoa beans plays such an important role in the finished chocolate.

Professional chocolate, now in convenient snack bags

Callebaut chocolate Blocks are commonly used by professional chocolatiers, bakeries and pastry chefs who rely on consistent quality and flavour.

They're not something you'd typically find in easily in our local shops

And that's exactly why we wanted to bring them to CannaMartJE.

Although they're originally designed for professional chocolate making, there's absolutely no reason you can't enjoy it exactly as is.

No special preparation, baking or melting required.

Just proper Belgian dark chocolate, ready to enjoy whenever you fancy a little treat.

Something a little different from CannaMartJE

We wanted our chocolate collection to offer something people don't usually come across in everyday convenience shops.

Callebaut 811 offers the genuine taste of Belgian dark chocolate without needing fancy fillings, excessive sweetness or chocolate flavoured substitutes.

It's rich, smooth and full of authentic cocoa character, but balanced enough to enjoy a few buttons at a time.

Whether you're already a dark chocolate enthusiast or simply looking to try something a little more cocoa rich than your usual milk chocolate, it's a lovely introduction to what proper Belgian chocolate has to offer.
