    I've never seen homemade chocolate that doesn't melt in your hands.
    I've seen people add a light coating of wax to prevent it.
    But pure chocolate with real ingredients - melts IME

    I just want it not to make a mess, it needs to be more like a candy bar
    or a
    piece of fudge
    than pudding so he can eat it with his hands instead of a spoon.

    Mine got hard, but the fat separated (which was hard in the
    fridge/freezer).

    Parrifin wax is disgusting as well. The decent chocolatiers would never
    use it.

    Chocolate does melt, but if you freeze it, it won't melt quite as fast.

    I have tasted it. It was about the bitterest thing I have ever tasted.
    Absolutely vile. It was basically cocoa powder pressed into a block.
    If anybody could actually eat that stuff for anything approaching
    pleasure, I would be astonished.

    now i've never researched this myself, but i've read articles in
    reputable sources that say that eating chocolate produces an
    enzyme (or something) in a woman's brain that's also produced
    when she has sex. does it have to be sweetened chocolate?
    that's what i want to know. what for? general purposes, i
    suppose.
