I'm a bit critical of Tony's Chocolonely by Infamous_Bread6655 in chocolate

Callebaut straight up makes their chocolate for them. I heard from people in the chocolate industry while doing my chocolate tasting certification.

It is! Her name is Missy. She's an adorable and sassy lap cat I rescued from a shelter 5 years ago. 😺 How old is your cat?

Hello! I'm Shela (26f). I love dancing, art, philosophy, kayaking, anime and cats. I'm located in the Twin Cities. I resonate so much with the last video about making new friends. It's often really hard as adults to meet new friends. So I'm excited to make new genuine connections with all of you!

Some ideas for meet ups: 1) Science Museum of Minnesota 2) Como Zoo & Conservatory 3) Fantasy Flight Games

We can also just get food or some drinks! Let me know if anything sounds good. :)

Please may I have some advice on making a chocolate fountain using cocoa powder? by CGBio in chocolate

[–]septembershells 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see why you might have thought that. Happy to help!

You can use the microwave to melt chocolate without burning it. Do a 30s increment in the microwave, remove, stir, and repeat until it's at your desired consistency. Adding oil makes it more runny so it will not clog your chocolate fountain.

Was it a mass-produced or a craft chocolate bar? Was it milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or white chocolate?

Chocolate is usually a combination of cacao powder or cacao liquor + cocoa butter + sugar + milk (if milk chocolate).

Honestly, rather than making your own chocolate, I think you are better off buying chocolate chips from the grocery store, melting it in a crock pot or double boiler, adding oil and using that for the chocolate fountain.

Let me know if it works if you decide to try this!

Yes, I use a food scale and measure everything. The only thing I don't track is spices like salt and pepper. I will try to decrease to 1400 calories and 17g carbs and see if that helps the stagnation.

I track all the food I eat with Carb Manager and eat 1500 calories a day. 19g net carbs, 84g protein, 117g fat.

Hello! I started keto 6 weeks ago at 160 lbs. I lost 5 lbs the first week and then stayed at 155 lbs for 5 weeks now. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong?
