Given the enduring popularity of traybakes, it’s essential to have a thicker, more easily cuttable version of our versatile spreads. Each spread comes with a matching high-quality Keylink Essentials compound coating, which you can mix with the spread to achieve a perfect cuttable consistency your customers will love to bite into. We’ve taken care of all the ratio calculations for you!
There’s no need to worry about workability, as until you set the spread in your fridge, it will remain spreadable and pipeable. You can see a comparison without (in a kronut) and with (as a traybake) to the right.
Here’s how:
Spread | Matching coating | % of coating required | Bakestable |
Pistachio | Pistachio | 20% | Y |
White | White | 20% | N |
Lemon | Lemon | 30% | Y |
Milk | Standard Milk | 20% | N |
Milk with Hazelnut | Standard milk | 20% | N |
White with Hazelnut | White | 20% | N |
Each spread will need 1-2 hours to set in the fridge after combining to make them cuttable. After keeping at room temperature, the spreads will soften but will keep their form, so can be displayed all day.
We’d love to see your creations, tag us on social media in your photos of compound coatings and spreads!
Earlier this year, the Barry Callebaut factory in Belgium closed for several months following a salmonella-positive chocolate production lot. While the factory has re-opened and our Callebaut stocks are improving again, the closure had a significant ripple effect on the chocolate industry and our other brands continue to be in high demand.
