Examples

“You add⟳ unmelted chocolate callets (purpose-made chocolate chips) or finely chopped chocolate to already-melted chocolate to bring⟳ the temperature down.”

“In the shops and bakery we use⟳ chocolate callets (or chips) in our baking. They come⟳ in a range of cocoa percentages and have⟳ the great advantage of melting evenly, which makes the chocolate less temperamental to work⟳ with.”

“We call⟳ for chocolate chips in our Chocolate Chip Cookies (page 1010), but there's another chocolate product on the market that's sometimes used for the same purpose: chocolate callets, which are formulated for melting.”
