Callebaut Elegant Dark chocolate chunks are a bake stable semi-sweet chocolate cut into irregular chunks, about 600 to the pound, packed in a 30 pound case. They are made for the rustic cookie, scone, and muffin where a chip looks too tidy and a melting pocket of chocolate is the whole point.

With about 47% cocoa, the flavor is deep roasted cocoa with a balanced sweetness and a hint of vanilla, dark enough to hold its own against brown sugar and butter. The chunks keep their shape and edges through the oven, so a cookie comes out studded with distinct shards of chocolate rather than a smear, and the larger pieces leave soft, glossy pools where they meet the surface. They also go into brownies and blondies, top sheet cakes and bars, and fold into bread and croissant doughs for a bakery style chocolate swirl.

Vanleer Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chunks, 600 Count are the same size with a slightly darker, alkalized cocoa flavor and a touch of salt.
