Couverture, meaning “covering,” chocolate is used for truffles and is high quality chocolate used by professionals. Made only with the best cocoa beans, couverture has a high percentage of cocoa, cocoa butter and chocolate liquor. This high ratio makes it expensive. When you melt this chocolate, it quickly and evenly becomes smooth, perfect for molding, tempering and enrobing candies. It comes in dark, milk, and white varieties of chocolate.
