Charli"E" and the Chocolate Factory

E has a speech to do for school. He did really well last year with his ice cream speech so he decided a safe bet would be to do chocolate this year. After he did all his research, he had all kinds of questions about the different kinds of chocolate so we decided we should have a chocolate tasting. We tried and compared cocoa powder, baking chocolate, chocolate chips, white chocolate, milk chocolate, 65% dark chocolate made with cocoa beans only from Madagascar, 75% dark chocolate made with coacoa beans only from Equador and a 70% dark chocolate from made from a blend of cocoa beans. Armed with glasses of milk and our taste buds, we read all about the different kinds of chcolate and their components. Everyone got in on the action and really enjoyed our chocolate experiment.

Wow. Did chaos ensue?

yummy - now that's homework that I could really sink my teeth into. hm.. now how do i incorporate that kind of experiment into my university class.. IV running rates for infused chocolate??

count me in if he needs to do extra credit in that class... what was the verdict anyway? surprised by any of them?

-S.
 
Everyone seemed to like the milk chocolate best but I think this experiment has been extended indefinately!
There's nothing like seeing a big cocoa smile after someone eats a teaspoon of cocoa!
