Water for Chocolate


If chocolate is your downfall, there may be some good news. Scientists at Birmingham University in England have developed a chocolate bar that replaces 60 percent of the fat content with water. It's bit more complex than it sounds: scientists employ a method that produces stable cocoa butter by connecting water particles with cocoa butter crystals. With an identical melting point to chocolate, and an apparently authentic taste, smell and mouth feel, this low-fat chocolate sounds like a promising alternative to the real thing. The question is, will it sell?
