The product features Belgian white chocolate with real dairy caramel.

The Caramel Equilibre offers a unique triple claim – it can be sold with a Belgian white chocolate, caramel, and salt claim on a finished product’s packaging.

Cargill’s Chocolate marketing manager, Brigitte Bayart, explained: "There’s been a spectacular increase in caramel ranges across food lines in recent years, and we know that consumers love the traditional, comforting taste of real dairy caramel. This insight makes us confident that Caramel Equilibre will breathe new life into existing ranges, and become an exciting new ingredient for our customers’ research and development teams."

Bayart continued: "The new colour and taste of Caramel Equilibre is a unique source of inspiration for our customers. This chocolate will be used to create limited editions of bars, biscuits, desserts and ice creams – and will become enduringly popular with consumers."
