These Guittard Eclipse du Soleil 41% milk chocolate wafers have been carefully made from bean to cocoa, crafted with generations of French artisan chocolate-making experience. With a European-style milk chocolate, subtle hints of dulce de leche, and an ultimate rich, creamy mouthfeel that leaves a long-desired, melt-in-your-mouth aftertaste, these wafers are made with all-natural ingredients to showcase the natural terroir and post-harvest practices.
When making these wafers, Guittard only uses a special blend of Fair Trade- and non-GMO-certified cacao beans with respect to Mother Nature, transforming the natural beauty of cacao into uniform chocolate discs.
For further improvements on their chocolate's flavor and quality, Guittard continuously works with the government and local organizations in the cacao's country of origin, protecting the natural flavor profiles of the regions' cacao to ensure the unique taste and aroma for all of their chocolates.
For the Eclipse du Soleil wafers, Guittard chose three specific cacao bean varietals with their roots growing in Central and South America:
Monitoring every step in the chocolate making process is essential for Guittard as they pride themselves on achieving the most natural flavor profile, ensuring eco-friendly and long-lasting growing practices, and equality for all of their growers.
Guittard invests in various ways of naturally fermenting cacao beans to develop certain flavor characteristics.
Beans are sun dried using traditional raking patterns to preserve flavor integrity.
Beans are shipped to Guittard's California headquarters to complete the curated chocolate-making process.
Every step transforms naturally grown cacao into Guittard's famous uniform chocolate discs.
These uniform wafers are designed for easy melting and tempering, making them ideal for professional kitchens and chocolate artisans who demand consistency and quality in every batch.
Temper these wafers to create the perfect set, snap, and shine to coat your truffles, fresh fruits, or to create chocolate masterpieces to adorn cakes or make into showpieces.
Melt the wafers to use as an ingredient when baking fluffy mousse, spongy cakes, rich ganache, silky cremeux, or smooth ice cream.
Roughly chop these wafers for the ultimate chocolate chunks to fold into your batters for signature, premium baked goods.
For five generations, Guittard has been endlessly evolving their artisanal craft to bring the most flavorful, sustainable, and socially responsible chocolate to the industry. During the California Gold Rush in the mid 1800's, Etienne Guittard discovered the demand his chocolate garnered among the wealthy coal miners and, with his newfound passion, grew his business into a leader in the chocolate industry.
Through their stewardship, Guittard has donated funding, time, and product to community projects across America, worked to continually reduce their environmental impact, and empowered their cacao growers in order to obtain a chocolate that contains optimal flavor, quality, and value. At Guittard, their chocolate not only enhances flavor profiles, but helps them unite the world through social responsibility, sustainability, and equality.
