Has or does anyone use the Chocovision Rev Delta or Chocovision Rev X3210?? Are these machines reliable and do they work as advertised??

Wilbur Veliche - Van Leer - Guittard

Posted in: Opinion

Unfortunately I live in a city where the above mentioned chocolates are not available in small quantities for me to sample and play with. I was wondering if anyone has worked with any of the following3 chocolates, Wilbur Veliche - Van Leer - Guittard? I found a cpl of sites that I could purchase them in bulk at what seems to be a decent price but I have never worked with any of them. I was wondering about the quality, taste and tempering qualities. Is the Veliche actually produced in Belgium?Thank you.
