FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT OUR CHOCOLATE MANUFACTURING SERVICES

What is your minimum order quantity?

Minimum volumes depend on the formulation, product, format and manufacturing requirements.

For custom and private label chocolate manufacturing projects, minimum annual purchase requirements depend on the project and should be confirmed with our team.

Samples and application trials can be agreed during the development process so you can validate flavour, texture and line performance before commercial scale-up.

Do you supply chocolate internationally?

Yes. Luker Chocolate serves customers in more than 40 countries, supported by warehouses and operations in the US and Europe.

Our team can help assess supply and distribution requirements for your
market. Contact us to discuss your project.

What is the difference between chocolate couverture and compound coating?

Chocolate couverture is real chocolate made with cocoa butter and is generally selected for premium flavour, melt, snap and mouthfeel. Depending on the application, it may require tempering.

Compound coating uses alternative vegetable fats and can offer different processing characteristics depending on the application.

The right solution depends on your process, sensory expectations, ingredient declaration, storage conditions and commercial requirements. Explore our chocolate couverture portfolio or speak with our R&D team.

Can you homologate an existing chocolate recipe?

Yes. Our New Product Development capabilities include complete recipe homologation, sensory profiling, formulation adaptation and rheology customisation.

The formulation can then be tested and adapted to support a smoother supplier transition and consistent performance on your production line.

Do you offer private label chocolate manufacturing?

Yes. Through our private label capabilities, we co-develop chocolate bars, snacks, coated products, bakery & pastry applications and drinking chocolate.

Our support can include formulation, flavour development, format selection, application testing, production scaling and finished-product manufacturing.

Do you offer chocolate solutions for bakery and pastry?

Yes. Our dedicated Bakery & Pastry Portfolio covers cakes, cookies, brownies, Viennoiserie, fillings, ganaches, coatings, moulding and finishing, with chocolate couverture and baking-specific formats for professional applications.
