Callebaut MALCHOC-M is a milk chocolate with no added sugar, developed for professionals seeking the flavour, texture and performance of traditional Belgian milk chocolate while replacing added sugar with maltitol.

It offers a balanced chocolate taste with a good cocoa body, generous milk character and pleasant sweetness from maltitol, rounded off with natural Bourbon vanilla.

Callebaut designed MALCHOC-M to deliver a taste, mouthfeel, colour, gloss and characteristic chocolate snap comparable to its traditional milk chocolate recipes such as 823.

• Rich cocoa
• Amber caramel
• Creamy milk character
• Vanilla

The overall profile balances cocoa, milk and sweetness, with natural Bourbon vanilla rounding out the finish.

MALCHOC-M contains no added sugar. Its sweetness comes from maltitol, which Callebaut uses as the sugar substitute in this recipe.

Callebaut notes that finished products made with MALCHOC-M may carry a “no added sugar” claim only when the complete finished recipe itself contains no added sugars.

Fillings, inclusions and other components must therefore also contain no added sugar if that claim is to be used for the finished preparation.

Callebaut states that MALCHOC-M provides the same creative freedom and technical behaviour as its traditional Finest Belgian Chocolate recipes.

Standard professional chocolate techniques such as melting, tempering, cooling and moulding can be performed in the same way.

Its medium fluidity makes it versatile across confectionery, pastry, desserts and beverage applications.

• Chocolate bars and tablets
• Pralines and confectionery
• Moulded chocolates
• Enrobed preparations
• Pastry mousses
• Crémeux
• Entremets

To create its balanced and rounded flavour profile, Callebaut blends cocoa beans from three different countries of origin: Ivory Coast, Ghana and Ecuador.

Use MALCHOC-M when a professional milk chocolate with no added sugar is required without sacrificing the familiar handling characteristics of traditional couverture.

Particularly suitable for pralines, chocolate bars, moulded chocolates, mousses, crémeux, entremets, ganache-style preparations, cakes, gelato, desserts and chocolate beverages.

Pair its creamy cocoa and caramel character with hazelnut, almond, coffee, vanilla or banana, or contrast it with raspberry, passion fruit, strawberry or other bright fruit flavours.

MALCHOC-M gives pastry chefs and chocolatiers an established Callebaut milk chocolate option with no added sugar while retaining the technical behaviour expected from Finest Belgian Chocolate.

Its balanced cocoa, milk, caramel and vanilla profile makes it especially useful when reduced-sugar formulation needs to coexist with premium chocolate flavour and professional versatility.
