Milk chocolate recipe to use at home?

Posted by admin on June 30th, 2010 and filed under milk chocolate | 1 Comment »

What do I need to make milk chocolate at home? Ideally using liquid milk, but I can settle for powdered milk. I also don’t want to start with cocoa beans – what is the next step from there? Mostly I need amounts of each ingredient; proportions are important.
Thanks
Milk chocolate, like Hershey bars
Thanks

EDITED TO ADD:
Sorry, I misunderstood the question.
NEW ANSWER:
You cannot use whole milk in making milk chocolate because of the water content. You can use condensed milk but I do not have a recipe for that.
Milk chololate is easily made at homes and would cost much lesser than it is to buy out .. heres how its made.. take one cup of powdered sugar, one cup of milk powder, one heaped table spoon of cocoa powder, about half table spoon of butter, and to this add the minimum quantity of water required to make a thick batter.. place this batter on a stove and bring to a boil on a low flame… when the batter becomes thick ( shown in the clip ) stop the boiling, cool, pour into suitable moulds, cut, cool in a fridge and it gets ready ..then
EAT !

The ingredients for a cold glass of chocolate milk are the following: a glass of milk, 1-2 tablespoons of chocolate syrup, ………..or 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder dissolved in warm water if chocolate syrup is not available, plus 2 tablespoons white sugar.

I need to bring in Belgian chocolate for a school presentation and I was wondering where I could find it really cheap at a store that is not in the middle of nowhere. Thanks so much. :)

Almost any chocolate confectioner. For cheap, try a drug store, or check the big box stores.

Have you ever tasted Belgian chocolate?

I taste it whenever I want :p

So? 1/2 the world eats Belgium chocolate.
Some are very good and some brands are so-so.
( Just like everywhere else).
Although Belgium is noted for their chocolate boutique shops, the chocolate they export
is not better than the Venezuelan ( El Ray Brand) or the French ( Valrhona).
Godiva is NOT made in Belgium anymore and Neuhaus is expensive and not great.
Duc D’or is OK.
I do however love Barry Callebeaut because he believes in Free Trade and supports the poor cocoa farmer in other countries. He willing pays a higher price and he sells his chocolate very reasonable.
For that reason, I support Callebeaut Belgium chocolate( it’s also the best bang for the buck).
It’s usually found in bulk in stores like Trader Joe’s ,Whole Foods and boutique gourmet markets.

I’m sorry, but you LOOK like a belgian chocolate fudge brownie… so No, I’m not. Didn’t mean that to be racist or anything, just the fact that your avatar has a blonde weave…

How can i make Milk chocolate using dark chocolate?

Posted by admin on June 16th, 2010 and filed under milk chocolate | 3 Comments »

I dont have milk chocalate but i do have dark chocolate what can i mix it with to make milk chocolate?

Far as I know, milk chocolate is actually dark chocolate with milk, not dark chocolate with dark, so no.

A quick search gathered no ways to make your own milk chocolate from dark chocolate, so I’m going to guess it’s not going to be a successful experiment – but who knows? You could figure it out, maybe no one has tried or felt like posting it on the internet.

Like the other woman said, maybe you could marble it for an interesting taste, I’ve never had that, perhaps try a smaller batch first. I don’t think it would work, but maybe. I think i would be easier to melt the dark and have it as a bottom, and have the white melted on top (They do seem to have different melting temperatures, so I would heat separately and start the white a little later since it apparently scorches easily).

This is what white chocolate is:

Where can you buy belgian/milk chocolate for chocolate fountains?

I need chocolate for my chocolate fountain and don’t want to get it offline because the shipping costs too much.
If you know of any stores that sell chocolate like this:
http://www.chocolatefountainsales.com/online-store/product.php?productid=216
please help!
thanks(:

Quite cheap on Ebay and thorntons do it too (about 4 quid i think)

Used both before and no problems to report

BTW – you can just use normal chocolate and add some more oil to it when its melted to make it flow, used that too and worked well!

my parrot puked after ingesting chocolate milk, but now shes just fine! everything okay?

Posted by admin on June 2nd, 2010 and filed under fine chocolate | 6 Comments »

she jsut snatched it up when she was on my shoulder! thought nothign of it, and she loved it. i took it away, but she acted fine so i let my guard down. that was scary, jeez. shes okay, and now shes all happy again! thanks guys.

Hopefully, if she is behaving normally, but this could have been very dangerous and even fatal to your bird. Besides chocolate and dairy products, there are a whole lot of foods you should never give your parrot such as onions, apple seeds, and avocado. There are however, many foods that are safe and healthy to give to your parrot in addition to whatever commercial parrot food you give her.
