Preference of Compound Chocolate Over Courverture Chocolate

The stability of compound chocolate surpasses that of courverture chocolate due to the absence of milk fat, which is prone to oxidation. This attribute grants compound chocolate a more extended shelf life compared to courverture chocolate. Furthermore, it possesses a lower moisture content than courverture chocolate, reducing its tendency to melt at room temperature. This quality facilitates the use of compound chocolate in food products that need to remain solid at room or cooler temperatures.

The cost of compound chocolate is more budget-friendly than that of courverture chocolate, attributed to the use of less expensive ingredients in its production.
