What are some recommended chocolatier forums?
Question by Eva Kasumi: What are some recommended chocolatier forums?
I’m just starting out in the chocolatier/truffle-making business, and I’m looking for some good forums or other communities in which to discuss and ask questions. I’ve found a couple but they’re mostly pretty old and have become rather inactive. Does anyone have any recommendations for forums that are still going strong?

Answer by Liz K
It’s not specifically for chocolatiers, but the forums at Chef Talk are excellent for any advanced food questions. The forums are frequented by professional chefs, pastry chefs, restaurateurs, etc.
I’m sure your questions could be answered there, and I’ll bet there are some chocolate makers, too.

Also be sure to take a look at the chocolate professional coaching program at Chocolate University Online.

Q&A: How to make Betty Crocker Brownies more chocolaty?
Question by Shiny: How to make Betty Crocker Brownies more chocolaty?
I’ve been wanting to make these brownies more chocolaty (I know they have the supreme chocolate ones) but this is all I have. What and how much should I add to the ingredients to make the brownies more chocolaty?

Answer by Miniver
i wouldn’t mess with the recipe. you could try cutting them up and coating them with tempered chocolate. (use chocolate chips, divide them in half…….melt half of the chocolate in a saucepan…….remove from heat and add the other half…….stir until melted.) coat the brownie bites in it.

Chocolate Chip Pancake Help?!?!?
Brandon Asked: Chocolate Chip Pancake Help?!?!?
Tomorrow is the day of my brother’s final and I was going to get up early and surprise him by making him breakfast. I am just going to make chocolate chip pancakes from the box but if I wanted to just make chocolate chocolate chip pancakes how would I go about doing this? I don’t have any cocoa powder so could I maybe add chocolate syrup and mix it directly into the batter? I need it within 11 hours so thanks!
Answers:
Sandy K Answered:
You add chocolate chips, I don’t think chocolate syrup will add taste to the pancakes.
RoyS Answered:
You can add a bit of chocolate syrup to the mix, and add chocolate chips. If the batter seems too runny, add more flour/pancake mix.

Where can you buy cocoa butter for cooking in Ireland?
Sandra Green Asked: Where can you buy cocoa butter for cooking in Ireland?
I am trying to make raw chocolate. I bought cocoa butter from Natashas living food and combined it with cocoa powder and agave nectar to make chocolate and it was so nice. id like to make more but the cocoa butter from Natasha is 5 per 100g, id like to get it cheaper and in bigger quantities. Its on sale on ebay for about 20-30e per kg for food grade cocoa butter but either they dont post to Ireland or if they do only a small amount is available. Id love to find a supplier in Ireland. Thanks!
