      osim,


      I just guess only. You can try increasing the proportion of cocoa powder to increase the melting point.
      If you're going to try, can you let me know whether it works this way? 😉

        Mychildren,


        I’ll try increasing the cacao powder proportion. I wonder if that will make the end product feels chalky in the mouth. I don’t add any milk. Anyway, I’ll let you know after I do the next batch.

          Hey, u've not let me know the result yet?
          Butter & the syrup are soft & liquid texture. That's why I asked u to add more cocoa powder, the solid form so they won't melt so fast. This is applying Science. Kekeke

            Thousand apologies! Haven't come into KSP almost a month.

            Yes, I tried as per your suggestion. Didn't help much. Cannot experiment any further because I ran out of raw cacao powder. Waiting for iherb.com to send. I read somewhere that commercial chocolate uses lecithin and something else to increase the melting pt of the chocolates but suggested that you don't try because it is not so straight forward. I was told raw chocolates is just like that, to transport it, you need to use ice-pack. The chocolate is so pure just cannot take our heat. Yum..(I add goji berries, various seed types to get some crunch to my chocolates, also decrease sugar amount to cut down calories). Frankly, I don't buy commercial chocolate anymore :rahrah: .

                Can try Cote Dor dark chocolate with hazelnut, it's good.
                I also like Whittaker dark chocolate with mint. Comes in a pack of small nuggets.

                I see Candy Empire carries quite a few European chocolates. There is one called Ovamaline which is actually the ovaltine brand. My ds wallop so many bars. Never left any for me :spank: so I didn't have a chance to try. He said it's good, there is something special inside. Bought when in Switzerland last year, now it's available here. Was highly recommended by the tour guide.

                    Hello all, Chocolates are everyone’s favorite I think. I don’t like dark chocolates, instead I like milk and coconut chocolates. Chocolates have a lot of health benefits too. It keeps your mind calm and helps you gain your confidence.
