Pernigotti Cocoa

Posted in: Opinion

Can anyone offer some reviews on Pernigotti Cocoa Powder? I am looking to purchase some to make a cocoa mix to include in gift baskets. Valrhona has great reviews, but it is also up to $6 more per lb. Pernigotti has good reviews on Amazon, but I'd like to hear from chocolatiers. Thanks in advance.

Has anyone attempted flavoring their chocolates with beer?

I haven't experimented with beer, but I make Grand Marnier truffles that are really potent and I get good feedback. I boil and cool a glucose mixture, add the liquor to that then fill and seal my truffle shells. I'm wondering if you can try the same technique with beer.
