SHIPPING DISCLAIMER: Occasionally during summertime some of the Chocolate, Cacao Butter and Cacao Liquor/Mass might melt somewhat during shipping. We do not use cold-packing materials for regular shipments, since we try to keep our shipping costs and packing costs low, in order to give you the most competitive prices. This should not affect any of your baking/cooking applications.
Fat Blooming Disclaimer
Please note that our cocoa liquor may bloom due to heat variations during storage and shipping. This can cause a white or grayish layer to appear on the surface, making it look old and giving it a sandy texture. However, if melted and tempered again, the cocoa liquor will return to its perfectly fine and shiny state. We do not sell tempered liquor, so blooming is not a fault or defect.
