    Applications & Uses

    Praline pastes are used for

    All kinds of finished products, similar to marzipan products, such as bars and cubes, especially in layers or rolled up with marzipan; also as a filling for chocolates, sweets and biscuits, and to add taste to butter cream, etc. Sometimes castor sugar is added as well.

    As the more or less firm consistency of praline pastes is due to their cocoa butter content, they are sensitive to temperature changes, just like chocolate. Once melted, they have to be subjected to a special cooling procedure (called 'tempering') in order to regain their attractive, uniquely smooth texture.
