FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
How are praline pastes produced?
Praline pastes consist of roasted, peeled, and very finely ground hazelnut or almond kernels with an admixture of cocoa products and a maximum of 50 percent sugar. Dark praline pastes contain cocoa mass and cocoa butter, while light praline pastes contain only cocoa butter. They are almost anhydrous. Moisture or water ingress spoils their quality. No fats other than cocoa butter may be added.
What are praline pastes used for?
Praline pastes are used for the production of various finished articles, similar to marzipan articles, such as bars and cubes, and are particularly popular when layered or rolled into roulades with marzipan. They are also used for filling pralines, candies, and pastries, and for flavoring buttercream, among other things. Icing sugar is occasionally mixed in, but no more than 500 grams of icing sugar may be used per kilogram of praline paste.
Are praline pastes temperature-sensitive?
Since praline pastes owe their more or less firm consistency solely to their cocoa butter content, they are temperature-sensitive, similar to chocolate. Once melted by heat exposure (e.g., in summer), they require a special cooling process (known as tempering) to regain their attractive and characteristic smooth structure.
How should praline paste be stored?
The products should be stored in a cool place at a maximum of 18°C, in a dark and dry environment with a maximum relative humidity of 60 %.
