Measuring the colour
of Chocolate Bars
Consumers judge the type and quality of chocolate based on visual perception. To determine consumer acceptance, HunterLab spectrophotometers provide objective measurements during manufacturing to predict product quality, consistency, and shelf appeal. Colour is a vital component of cocoa manufacturing that determines the perception of the overall quality of cocoa products. With the ever-growing demand for quality chocolate, colour measurement is a priority for producers. Our best-in-class colour measurement instruments give producers quantitative standardization values to evaluate quality repeatedly and reduce wastage accurately.
Why measure the colour of chocolate?
Improve visual appeal: Chocolate comes from various sources, and even the slightest colour variation can reflect on the quality of the product. That is why colour control in the processing and development stages are crucial to the overall outcome.
Colour measurement can ensure you meet industry standards, and, most importantly, customer expectations.
Better safety and accuracy: HunterLab offers the ONLY innovative non-contact spectrophotometer worldwide. Auto-height positioning enables colour measurement of non-homogenous, irregularly shaped/textured products with better accuracy and safety.
Easy monitoring of Quality Control processes: You need an easy-to-use, reliable colour measurement instrument to provide early warning signals that ensure your quality control processes work seamlessly. HunterLab spectrophotometers also help reduce wasted end products and improve your top-line revenue.
Boost your brand reputation: Quality is paramount to gaining market share. You want to give your customers the best you have to offer. Chocolate is used to produce many other products and needs to undergo stringent QC processes. HunterLab spectrophotometers provide precise measurements within 5 seconds and occupy minimal bench space.
Say goodbye to manual errors and repetitive work: With an easy-to-use modern interface and the latest data communications features, our best-in-class spectrophotometers reduce the time and labor necessary to evaluate colour. Additionally, they come with colour measurement software that can store and recall thousands of standards. The data is displayed and stored digitally and can be fed into your Statistical Process Control (SPS) systems, facilitating more efficient workflows. These features accelerate the quality control process by shrinking the time to measure multiple samples.
With features like auto height positioning, a rotating sample platform, a large touch-screen display, and smart communications, HunterLab offers the best choice for colour measurement of chocolate bars.
