  • Cacao butter can be purchased

    Cacao butter can be purchased at health shops. it can be left out but just use the same amount of chocolate .

    I sometimes mix dark and milk chocolate together- depends on what is available at the time. Homemade chocolate is also great.

  • Should the fruit and nuts be

    Submitted by Carol Sroczynski on 30. November 2014 - 10:34.

    Should the fruit and nuts be set aside after chopping and before putting the chocolate and butters in to be chopped and melted?  Could you also please edit out the extra butter which appears in the method if it is a mistake.  This looks so yummy but the method needs clarifying.

    In your method you say "Melt chocolates , cocao butter,and butter in TM bowl".   You don't have butter in your ingredients (only the cacao butter).  Could you specify the amount please.
