Guest guest Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 Does anybody know whether cocoa butter is legal? Would that give us chocoholics a bit of what we crave? Don't know where I'd get it though. Theresa (in Vancouver, Canada) > > > Cocoa powder is made from the same bean from which chocolate is made. Intense and dark, it tastes a little bitter when raw. It is made by extracting the fat from the cocoa bean, then drying the residue and grinding it to a fine powder. It is vitally important that you don't confuse it with the ready-made powdered drinking chocolate that might produce a cup of 'cocoa' – this is a combination of cocoa powder, sugar and powdered milk and if mixed into batters will not taste chocolatey. > > Chocolate, Cocoa, Carab will cause symtoms to return. Do not use, please. See Elaine's Legal and Illegal list. > __________________ > Loving Care,Grammy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 Digestive Wellness's fudge snackaroons calm mine, and my son's cravings. The pecans in them somehow mixed w/ other stuff really tastes like chocolate : ) tm_marion wrote: Does anybody know whether cocoa butter is legal?

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 I was thinking about experimenting with prune puree, weak coffee, vanilla and pecan butter. I will let you know if that has any chocolate taste. Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
