  • Question
    I don't have coconut oil or cocoa butter. What can I use as a substitute?
    Community Answer
    Go to the store and buy some. You can't really make this recipe without one of these essential ingredients. Other oils don't harden well so they can't really be used as a substitute.

  • Question
    Can artificial sweetener such as Stevia be used to make dark chocolate candy?
    Community Answer
    Stevia can be used, but make sure not to use too much because Stevia is 100 to 200 times sweeter than sugar.

  • Question
    Do I have to use cocoa butter?
    Community Answer
    No, but you can use cocoa butter as an lotion. Also you can consume it or use it in your hair, which will cause it to become softer and more healthy.

    Can I use butter instead of coconut oil or cocoa butter?

    Community Answer
    Yes, but the chocolate will have a slightly different taste and texture if you do that. Many prefer using coconut oil, but it’s completely up to you.

    Is vanilla extract necessary?

    Community Answer
    No, it is not. It definitely does enhance the flavour though, you may find it a bit plain without the extract.
