Cacao Barry Mycryo is a specially processed powdered 100% pure cocoa butter. It an excellent chocolate tempering aid, making it easy and simple to temper chocolate without a machine as shown in a Cacao Barry video. (Please be aware that temperatures mentioned in the video are in Celsius.)
This method has multiple advantages:
- Requires minimum equipment.
- Simply add 1% MYCRYO by weight to the chocolate; namely 10g for 1kg of chocolate (approximately 1/5th oz. for 1 lb) when the chocolate reaches the correct temperature.
- The chocolate remains perfectly fluid.
- Longer working time before the chocolate hardens. Shape the chocolate by hand or mould with an enrober.
Mycryo can also be used as a replacement for common fats and oils in the preparation of savory dishes (click for brochure). It is good for high heat applications, and Mycryo tends to keep moisture in the foods it is cooked with.
Important Note: The Mycryo bottle indicates that it is for "salty applications" and does not contain instructions for chocolate tempering. Please download Cacao Barry's Document indicating the suitability of this product for chocolate tempering along with written tempering instructions.
Please note that this product is Euro dated , it will show as day/month/year.
