A planning figure, not a laboratory analysis. It is here so a recipe can be reasoned about, not so it can be declared on a menu.
Shelf life: Chocolate block or shavings: months sealed and cool. Cocoa for dusting: 1–2 years dry.
Storage: Cool (about 18–20°C), dry, away from odours; shavings melt from hand heat — handle with a spoon or shaker, never fingers.
- Cappuccino and café mocha dusting
- Hot chocolate finish over the whipped cream
- Frappé and milkshake topping
Maximum visual impact for a very small addition. Milk chocolate shavings carry dairy and usually soy lecithin; a pure cocoa dusting carries neither.
