If you don’t have access to cocoa butter, and assuming you aren’t selling it, you can substitute butter or palm oil along with a 40% mix of bee’s wax to harden it up. Basically any saturated fat will work.

If you’re making it for sale though, most countries require you to use a minimum amount of cocoa butter in order to legally call it “chocolate.”

Can you substitute bittersweet chocolate chips for semisweet chocolate chips?

Question by Wally West: Can you substitute bittersweet chocolate chips for semisweet chocolate chips?
Im making a cake and I just found out we don’t have semisweet chocolate chips. Can I use bittersweet chocolate chips instead?

Best answer:

Answer by Macchiato Junkie
Bittersweet is not as sweet as semi sweet so the cake will have a more adult appeal, otherwise there is no reason you couldn’t use the bittersweet chips. BTW-do not try to compensate for the sweetness by adding more sugar to the cake-this will make the chips seem even less sweet. You can, however, reduce the sugar in the cake by 1/4 cup which will make the difference not so noticeable.

Can You Substitute Extract instead of Oil-based flavoring for Chocolate Making?

Question by Zahra S: Can You Substitute Extract instead of Oil-based flavoring for Chocolate Making?
I’m trying to make chocolate truffles with creme inside you know like, raspberry, strawberry…etc. So I can’t find oil-based flavoring anywhere but I can find extract. So can I use Extract?

Best answer:

Answer by Stephanie
You can, they just won’t taste as good. Extracts have a higher alcohol content (and not the good kind of alcohol) and taste less like natural flavor.
