Can anyone tell me a website or a company that sells Callebaut chocolate at a reasonable price? I contacted Callebaut directly and their minimum purchase order is 1000 lbs per order - don't think I can meet that requirement (ha! ha!) I'd appreciate any info anyone has. Thanks.

www.gourmail.com is the company that I use.

I'd second gourmail.com. You have to buy a minimum of 22lbs, just a bit less than Callebaut's required purchase. Last I checked the price was about $40 for each 11lb block.

Does gourmail.com supply couverture as well? I've never used gourmail.com but find buying on the web a lot easier than trying to convince a supplier to buy for me.

You can go to DeanandDeluca.com
they sell the new Callebaut Pastilles. they are the same as the big block but are great if you are going to chop or melt it..they only have Semi Sweet.
they are about $5.00 a lb


Callebaut Semi-Sweet Pastilles (USA) Callebaut
