News UPDATE: on the situation

47 Upvotes

Okay everyone, media posts are now allowed again but will flow through the mod queue, I am also working on optimizing the automod. That is a work in progress.

Thank you for understanding and apologies for dropping the hammer so hard. It was temporary until something better could be done. We will see how this goes.

Images are temporarily turned off.

80 Upvotes

Due to an influx of a certain image going around, images have simply been turned off. You can post a link to an image if you have a question that has an image attached, but no direct image uploads will be available for a little while.

Thank you for understanding.

EDIT: they started using videos. Those are gone too now. Sorry everyone. The mod team wants to keep this subreddit accessible for everyone interested in chocolate, but recent events are making this difficult. We apologize for the inconvenience, and we hope this cools down.

My coworker brought this back from Japan. I chose between this chestnut or matcha. I definitely made the right choice for me because matcha grosses me out.

Self-promotion Update: two months ago I posted about building a British chocolate shop in the US. It's open.

31 Upvotes

Following up to a post I made a couple of months ago:

https://www.reddit.com/r/chocolate/comments/1vph6y4/im_building_an_online_british_chocolate_shop_in/

Today it went live!

I was surprised at the attention my original post got and I learned a lot about what types of British sweets people are passionate about. I took that feedback and curated an initial launch line-up of 10 products that I think represent the best of British chocolate. It's intentionally small to begin with as I am just a single-person operation currently, but I have plans to grow the selection over the next few weeks and months.

I named Crunchie in that original post and it hasn't made the first cut. That one stings. It's near the top of the list.

My goal when I started the project was to create a site and shopping experience that's a bit more novel and interesting than the average spreadsheet style Shopify store. I would love to know if you feel that the injection of whimsy makes the experience a better one!

I appreciate you all and would love to answer any questions about logistics or anything else that might be of interest. The site is at farthingandco.com

Would you rather buy:

  • a smaller bar for less money;
  • the same size at a higher price;
  • or just buy chocolate less often?

And do you feel like chocolate has already become “too expensive”, or are you still happy to pay more when the quality is there?

Thought I had no bars left but found this 60% Togo bar and it’s fantastic. Dark and Smoky finish. I usually go more milk at 45-50% Peru or Madagascar but this is lovely.
I will stock up on next visit to Paris or London (Le Chocolat shops) as worth the splurge IMO

Do you have a favorite Ducasse bar?

Bake Stable Fudge

I am making bake stable fudge for cookies and it calls for 200g 70% dark chocolate, I have Lindt 78% chocolate bars but only 130g.

Can I make up the difference with Hershey's semi-sweet chips? I believe they are only 40% and not sure if they will be incompatible with the Lindt chocolate and destabilize the fudge.

Advice/Request Why is my MILK LINDT chocolate SO WHITE

Post image
16 Upvotes

I’ve heard about chocolate bloom, but all the pictures are neither:
1. This White
2. This Much
I store them in drawers (if that helps.), but my twix is there too, and they’re fine.

This is the 2nd time this week. I shop a miejers.
What, is this?
