How to Melt Chocolate
Chocolate melts faster the higher the percentage of cocoa butter and fat, so dark chocolate melts the fastest. Milk Chocolate and White Chocolate have a higher sugar content and so can catch and burn quicker, so these must be stirred continuously when melting. They will also be thicker than dark chocolate once melted.
Using a Double Boiler to Melt Chocolate
This is the most controlled way to melt chocolate. Make sure your chocolate doesn’t come into contact with the water or it will seize up and go grainy.
- Fill a medium saucepan with about 4cm of water and place over medium heat to a gentle simmer.
- Find a bowl that will sit on the saucepan, without its base touching the water.
- Lower the heat to a very gentle simmer.
- Break up the chocolate and place into the very dry bowl, melt for 4-5 minutes stirring regularly.
- Remove from heat and allow to cool just slightly before using.
How to Melt Chocolate in Microwave
You will need to keep checking the chocolate using this method as it can burn really quickly in a microwave.
- Put chocolate into a microwave safe bowl.
- Microwave on medium setting (50%) for 20 seconds. Open microwave, stir and repeat. Continue until all chocolate has melted.
