The small chip scatters through a dough far more evenly than a standard size, so every bite reads as chocolate rather than every third one. Packed in a 50 lb box in factory packaging, available in bulk and wholesale quantities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"full_description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat It Is\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a dairy free semisweet chocolate chip, made without milk ingredients from the formula stage rather than worked around after the fact. That means one item can carry both a standard production run and anything going out as vegan or dairy free. For a kitchen fielding steady requests for plant based versions of the same cookie, it removes a second chocolate from the storeroom and a second line from the order sheet. The 4,000 count grade is the smallest of the common chip sizes, and it behaves accordingly in the mixer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlavor and Texture\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flavor sits in familiar semisweet territory, deep and cocoa forward with enough sweetness to read as a classic chocolate chip rather than a dark chocolate statement. At 51.3% cacao it holds its own against brown sugar and butter without turning bitter in the bake. The chips are firm and dry to the touch, and they keep their shape through the oven instead of flowing out, so the finished crumb shows defined pieces rather than streaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCulinary Uses\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mini size makes this a general purpose inclusion chip that folds into almost anything without weighing the batter down.

A steady temperature matters more than a cold one. Refrigeration is best avoided, as condensation forms when the chips come back to room temperature and can leave a dull bloom on the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBulk and Wholesale Options\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis item ships as a 50 lb box in factory packaging.
