Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Pastry Parlour in Bath needed to refresh its spring dessert collection. Their goal was to introduce a visually striking range of citrus-themed chocolates but their existing colours were proving inconsistent and dull.
"The consistency and colour of the Pavoni cocoa butter are second to none. It airbrushes perfectly into our moulds, giving us that professional sheen our customers expect. The lemon yellow is just so bright and cheerful, it really brings the designs to life."
Michael Davies – Head Pastry Chef
The new citrus collection, featuring the vibrant yellow bonbons, became their fastest-selling seasonal item, increasing speciality chocolate sales by over 30% in the first month.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
How to Use It
- Melt gently in a bain-marie or microwave in short, 15-second bursts, stirring regularly.
- For best results and a glossy finish, aim for a working temperature of around 28-29°C.
- Apply with an airbrush for an even coating inside moulds or use a fine brush for detailed painting.
- Always ensure your moulds and tools are perfectly clean and dry before you begin.
Storing It Right
- Keep the container tightly sealed after each use to protect it from moisture and air.
- Store in a cool, dry place (ideally 12-20°C) away from direct sunlight.
- Avoid storing near items with strong odours, like spices or coffee, as cocoa butter can absorb them.
- Try to prevent major temperature swings to maintain its smooth, stable consistency.

Explore more from PavoniWhy Being E171-Free Matters for Your Craft
You've probably seen 'E171-Free' popping up more often, but what does it actually mean for your kitchen? E171, or Titanium Dioxide, is a chemical compound that has long been used as a whitening and brightening agent in everything from paints to food. However, due to changing regulations and growing consumer awareness about additives, it's being phased out of food products across the UK and EU.
Think of it like choosing to bake with organic flour instead of standard. While both work, one signals a commitment to cleaner, more transparent ingredients that discerning customers are actively looking for. By using an E171-free product like this Pavoni coloured cocoa butter, you're not just colouring chocolate; you're future-proofing your creations and building trust. It shows you care about the finest details, not just in technique, but in the very components you use.
