French term

chablonner

French to English Other Food & Drink sweet/chocolate making
I am translating small scale industrial recipes for coated/enrobed sweets and chocolates (i.e., for professionals, not home cooks) I know "chablonner" would usually mean "cover with a thin layer of chocolate" but cannot see how that would apply in this recipe where the instructions are:

4. Placer le cadre à 4 °C, 5 à 10 min, et laisser cristalliser à 16 °C.
5. Cristallisation 24 à 36.
6. Chablonner, découper, puis séparer les cubes

There is no melted chocolate included in the list of ingredients for this part of the recipe and the cubes will be coated in a separate process.

coat with pastry brush

Note from asker:
I ended up going back to the client who confirmed the customary translation of 'spread a thin coat of tempered chocolate' was the correct one here, despite the lack of tempered chocolate in the recipe list

I agree this is also a possibility but I ended up going back to the client who confirmed the customary translation of 'spread a thin coat of tempered chocolate' was the correct one here, despite the lack of tempered chocolate in the recipe list
although fyi in chocolate/sweet making in a frame, a pastry brush is not required, the spread can be done with a metal rule

When it is completely liquid, use a brush to apply a thin layer in the bottom of the pastry case. Put in the fridge to set. Then fill your tart as usual. See ...

Chablonnage (sealing pastry with chocolate)
Chablonnage is a French pâtisserie term which means sealing the inside of a pastry tart case with a thin coating of melted white or dark chocolate, normally applied with a brush. After cooling, the chocolate hardens to form a fine, moisture-proof layer. The chocolate prevents the tart filling (which may be a fairly liquid cream or juicy fruit) soaking into the bottom. The pastry will then stay crisp longer.

Example: "Apply a chablonnage to the tart case"

Chablonner

To spread a very thin layer/create a protective shell for imbibing or from sticking to a plate (usually using chocolate).

Another idea, apologies if this is confusing, but I found that 'chablon' is the Swiss French word for mold/stencil in case this might fit with context. Hope this helps a little!
