Thanks😂😎

[@samerbleik5475]

Thank u😁

[@MsKim14]

All these years I’ve been trying to melt chocolate chips! Maybe that’s why I found it so difficult. I never knew that chocolate chips were designed not to melt. Thanks!

[@brennadonnelly3179]

Thank you for this. I always thought that you had to have a tempered glass bowl and sit it over the sauce pan to act as a double boiler. This method is very easy and convenient! Thank you.

[@SumaRowjee-cakesandmore]

Yes Brenna, I hope you will try this method!

[@alimuhammad6208]

Same I also thought like u

[@jesusisreal2604]

[@antrag9030]

I tried melting chocolate directly in the microwave and it turned out to be very bitter.. This video was very helpful.. Thank you

[@korro5870]

If you want to melt chocolate in the microwave, you have to do it in intervals of 30seconds and not more than that . Every time you put in microwave, it has to be no more than 30 minutes and check out consistencies until you get to the consistencies you want. Hope that helps.

[@honitkapoor4434]

Same with me

[@mttex2628]

i literally just put a chocolate bar on a plate (that can go in a microwave) for 20 seconds and it comes out nice

[@vijayakumark.3570]

I have never melted chocolate before and this method worked perfectly 😊. Also good to know chocolate chips aren't designed to melt. Glad I saw this before buying the chocolate! TY

[@jai3380]

Thank you so much for this video! I tried melting chocolate chips in the microwave in 30 second intervals however, it came out lumpy and chunky. I decided to look it up on KZbin and came across your video. I bought some baking chocolate and melted it as in your tutorial on the stove and it came out perfect.

[@clairecadoux471]

Brilliant. Clear. Explained why. Easy. Never done it before. Looks great. I put some orange oil in. It may not set 'crisp', but some softness to the chocolate woukd be great . Thank you. Good job.

[@calliecature]

5:01 Thanks for sharing this. I was able to successfully melt chocolate without it seizing. At first I was worried that it wasn't melting as fast as it should and had considered melting it with the skillet of water back on the stove. But then the chocolate began to melt steadily and I was able to have that luscious shiny melted chocolate.

[@valleygrrl215]

I'm so glad I found this video, learning about the water/wetness is so important! My melting turned out perfectly thanks to that info, waiting to see how the final product comes out of the oven. Thank you.

You did an amazing job of explaining everything. Thank you so much for making my first time easy. I needed this to melt choclate for valuntines day balloon bowl and heart shaped molds. It turned out so perfect thanks to your help and guidance.

[@Amah-Lady]

Thank you for your effort, easily and clearly explained. I have two questions please: If I put it on the top of a cake, would it harden? If I put it in the middle of a vanilla cake, like vanilla layer then chocolate layer then vanilla layer and back it, would it be still running what I cut a piece? Thank you from heart in advance for your reply and help. Best wishes.

[@Narcissustic]

This is not a double boiler. Your pot has direct contact with your pan, even though you have water around it, this is still just cooking a pot on the stove normally with some extra metal between. A double boiler needs the pot to nestle above the boiling water and the apparatus holding the boiling water needs to be able to direct it upwards with high walls, preferably a snug contact so the steam goes directly onto the nestled pot above. The heat distribution and consistency is different. Your video was neat. Thank you for taking the time to post.

[@rish5210]

Thank you for this tips. I tried many times but it comes out lumpy. Hope this tips will make my chocolate melting perfectly.

[@altheamariapius2755]

I always thought why chocolate always got lumpy, I used to pour milk, thank you so much for telling all the specifics. ✨️

[@orbinm]

I used to do the mistake of using milk from fridge in melted chocolate to make it thin. But the choc would immediately seize. Chocolate is temperature sensitive. Guess milk should be warm n then added.. Or added at the beginning with chocolate

[@grirthyrobinson5379]

Hi i've try it several times and it keeps coming out crumbs, either microwave or stove. I do hope with your tips that i will succeed. I love baking and experiment. I'm from Namibia ❤🎉

[@samerbleik5475]

Then microwave it a little bit

[@upasanachowdhury8785]

You can melt chocolate chips. The best way to melt chocolate chips is to put them in a plastic bowl and keep re-heating until how you want it. I just did it and it came out really good. I started off with 15 sec, 20 sec, then 45 sec and it melted. Do not use a glass bowl.

I just watched a video after this video of a woman melting Hershey chocolate chips with water in a sauce pan and bowl or heat resistant bowl covering the sauce pan. So I guess it can be melted. I say this because I want to save time from cutting up chocolate to small pieces. This video is still helpful.

[@dipankarmazumder2262]

It was really a nightmare... Like i started melting the cadbury, my water was boiling... Once, like after 30sec or so, it became nicely melted... i went to bring the butter from the fridge to mix with it. And when i went, i had turned off my flame... when i returned, it was hardened... Now this time, it became so hard that it was not even getting melted in direct contact with the boiling water(i directly dipped my saucepan into the water)... I think i created that 'lumpy mass' which u were talking about... But hey, whats the science behind it? Why the melting point became so high this time? And why even this chocolate became hardened?

[@SumaRowjee-cakesandmore]

Dipankar, I think moisture got into your chocolate, so it seized up.

[@lisagda]

Thank you for this informative video! I have a question and I was thinking you could perhaps answer it for me. I have a recipe to make eclairs from a cookbook called The Cardamom Trail. It's a great book, but the part about the melted chocolate went wrong both times because I did it directly on the saucepan/heat (it turned into a block). Now I will do it from the method from this video since that's the proper way. The book's recipe is for a caramel chocolate sauce. It says to melt dark brown sugar with butter first (having it come to a boil and then stirring for 1 minute) and then add in dark chocolate and some heavy cream. Would it come out ok with those ingredients if I did it in this method? Could you also tell me what effects sugar, butter, and heavy cream have on melted chocolate. Sorry for the long message. I hope I made sense :-) Thanks again!

[@SumaRowjee-cakesandmore]

Thank you for watching my video Lisa! You generally need to be very careful when you are melting chocolate on its own / chocolate and butter together, whatever method you use. But when there is liquid to be used along with it - like milk, cream or water, it is much easier. I don't think you need to use the method in the video for this sauce. You could try heating together the butter(soft), brown sugar and cream till it begins to steam. Take off the heat and stir in the chopped chocolate till it melts. That should work.Generally, any temperature variation causes the chocolate to seize up. So do not add cold cream to melted chocolate. Chocolate butter can be melted together(video method), then you can safely stir in the sugar. Hope this helps! That book sounds tempting, enjoy the book and the eclairs - with the sauce :). Do let me know.

[@lisagda]

Thank you for your suggestions! I took your advice- heating the butter, sugar, and cream. Then, I took it off the heat and put the chopped chocolate. It worked perfectly, thanks! I enjoyed learning more about how chocolate works, what it likes and doesn't like, haha. Now I was really able to enjoy the eclairs :-)

[@SumaRowjee-cakesandmore]

I will. I bought a big bag of Belgian chocolate which is designed for cooking. On its own, it is quite bitter, so needs some butter and sugar added. I have experimented, creating an ugly mass lump which was actually quite tasty. Research, research, research. I intend to master this skill and hope to create some chocolate covered fruits or similar.
