Chocolate chips come in many different shapes and sizes. At Santa Barbara Chocolate, we are able to offer a wide range of customized chips made fresh to order. Taking a look at the image above, you will be able to see the largest chip (right) compared to one of our smallest chips offered (left). The measurements are done in chips per pound. On the left, '1M' refers to the count per pound for the chip size (1,000 count = 1,000 chips per pound). The 'K-200' measurement, on the left, refers to the amount of chips per 100g. In this instance it would mean 200 chips per 100g.
