Product Information

Valrhona devised Opalys to meet the needs of a customer who wanted a chocolate with an immaculate color. Developing such
a bright white product was technically highly demanding and required Valrhona to modify its facilities. This led to the creation of Opalys, a creamy, pure white chocolate, with only the slightest hint of sweetness. Prized by perfectionists, it became a phenomenal success. The name Opalys refers to its opalescent white color.

What makes Opalys so special is its perfect balance of cocoa butter, sugar and milk. Obtaining this white color and this level of finesse at the same time is extremely difficult. 

This chocolate defies all preconceptions about white chocolate: it’s milky and vanilla-flavored, with just a hint of sweetness and an immaculate white color...
