Callebaut Ruby RB2 Chocolate - 2.5 kg (Callets™)
Discover the new generation Ruby RB2 chocolate replacing Ruby RB1: more intense taste, more vibrant ruby color, 100% natural - for truly memorable desserts.
What makes it special
Ruby RB2 chocolate is the fourth type of chocolate: it is neither white, nor milk, nor dark - it is ruby. Its color and taste come naturally from Ruby cocoa beans, rich in aroma and color precursors. Its profile is fruity and tangy, with notes of blood orange and elderflower, wrapped in elegant creaminess.
- More intense ruby color, standing out both in display cases and on the plate.
- More pronounced flavor than RB1 - memorable from the very first bite.
- Excellent versatility: bars, pralines, mousse, ganache, cheesecake, macarons, ice cream, gourmet drinks, chocolate fountains.
RB1 vs RB2 - key differences
| Feature | Ruby RB1 | Ruby RB2 |
|---|---|---|
| Taste | Fruity and tangy, milder | More intense fruity-tangy taste, improved sweet-creamy balance |
| Color | Delicate pink-ruby | Richer, more “sparkling” ruby |
| Results in finished products | Very good | Uniform texture, increased stability (molding, creams, glazes) |
| Fluidity | All-round | 3 drops - excellent balance for varied applications |
Ruby RB2 chocolate officially replaces Ruby RB1 chocolate in the Callebaut portfolio.

How to use it - reliable results
- In its pure form: bars, sticks, mendiants, praline shells - the ruby identity is most expressive here.
- With water-based ingredients (milk, cream, purées): you get fine textures; the color may become paler - this is normal and depends on pH.
- With fatty ingredients (butter/anhydrous butter): you preserve the color intensity and achieve flawless smoothness in creams & fillings.
- Storage: keep in a cool, dry place, max. 20°C, away from light.
