How to Temper W2 Callebaut Chocolate (Simplified Seeding Method)

Tempering gives your chocolate that clean snap and glossy finish.
Here’s a beginner-friendly way to temper W2 white chocolate:

Step-by-Step:

1. Chop or weigh out 100g of W2 Callebaut chocolate. Divide into:

   • 67g (⅔) for melting

   • 33g (⅓) for seeding

2. Melt ⅔ (67g) of the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over simmering water (double boiler). Stir gently and remove from heat when fully melted.
   🎯 Target temp: 40°C / 104°F

3. Add the remaining ⅓ (33g) and stir constantly to cool the chocolate.
   🎯 Cool to: 27°C / 80°F

4. Gently reheat the chocolate just slightly—5 seconds at a time if needed.
   🎯 Final tempering temp for W2 white chocolate: 29–30°C / 84–86°F

Now your chocolate is tempered and ready to work with.

Add Matcha — Your Way

Sift in 1 to 2 teaspoons of Premium Whispering Leaves Matcha, depending on how strong you like it:

• 1 tsp → mild & sweet

• 2 tsp → bold, earthy & intense

Mix until fully incorporated. The chocolate should be smooth and a vibrant, natural green.

Pour & Set

• Pour into silicone molds or onto parchment-lined trays

• Tap gently to remove bubbles

• Let it set at room temp or chill for 20–30 minutes until firm

Optional Toppings (Before it Sets):

• Crushed pistachios

• Toasted sesame

• Flaky sea salt

• Extra matcha dusted on top
