About this video
Couverture Chocolate: Contains real cocoa butter (32–47%), making it smooth, glossy, and rich in flavor. Requires tempering for the perfect snap and shine. Ideal for coating, molding, and high-quality desserts.
Compound Chocolate: Made with vegetable fats instead of cocoa butter, making it easier to use (no tempering needed). However, it lacks the rich taste and smooth texture of couverture. Best for quick decorations and easy handling.
