Can this be used in place of regular cocoa in cake and icing recipes to make a white chocolate flavor?

It is most commonly used for drink beverage recipes, white cocoa, white mochas, etc. it can also be used in recipes, but it will be on the sweeter side.

Yes! I use one of the small round tips to drizzle melted chocolate on my biscotti. I melt the chocolate right in the bag in my microwave before I put the tip on. If the chocolate is too thick you can add paramount crystals, available on Amazon and the chocolate will be smoother. I have this problem with white chocolate.

I have no idea. I've only used it for the cake recipe provided on the packaging. If you are trying to use it as a mold for chocolates, I would think it is much too large and probably wouldn't come out easily. Good luck!

This product can be used for anything you would use cocoa powder for. It is more like Hershey's cocoa and not like hot cocoa mix. It is not an instant mix, and it is unsweetened.

Yes, you can use this on tempered chocolate. Spray it first with a bit of cooking spray & pour in your melted chocolate. It makes beautiful bi-colored chocolate if you're so inclined. I tinted some almond bark & scraped it into the crevices. I popped in the refrigerator for a few minutes and then came back and spread some untinted almond bark over it and put it back in the refrigerator for a couple more minutes. I've also used a white/dark combo with great results. It pops right out after a couple of minutes in the refrigerator and it shows the intricate designs very well. Good luck! :)

Yes, you should be able to use this in melted chocolate. I'm not sure about the chemistry behind it, but it shouldn't seize. I use my emulsions in a mixture of 1/2 cup cacao powder, 1/2 cup coconut oil, 3 T. pure maple syrup and 1 tsp. emulsion of choice. I stir with a whisk until well blended, pour into chocolate molds, chill 30 minutes and it's perfect. Good Luck!!

Never tried that. We use the cake mix for other things like banana nut bread, small cupcakes. Sorry cannot help you.

Yes...I use half and half, sugar, salt, and a pinch of pancake syrup to make a vanilla base and I use this mixture plus brown sugar and cocoa powder for a chocolate base. Then add in whatever mix-ins I want either after taking the base out of the machine, or during the last few minutes while it is still in the machine.

Yes, you surely can! You will need special recipes, though. Recipes in "The Spunky Coconut" come to mind right offhand, but there are surely others. You will need recipes that don't depend upon the caramelization capacity of sugar to make them succeed, so you can't substitute successfully in all recipes.

I have never tried it, but it might work if the chocolate is suppose to be melted at a low degree. Think of the babycakes as a warmer like a fondue pot. You heat it up in the microwave and then the warmer keeps it warm.

I use this to make buttercream frosting every time in lieu of Crisco! I use 1/2 cup softened butter, 1/2 cup Palm shortening, 4 cups powdered sugar, and a few tablespoons of milk. (From Wilton recipe) The consistency is perfect and the flavor of the shortening is very neutral for frosting. I used to use coconut oil but it is very flavored and has a low melting point.

depends on how thick your chocolate is and how many cakes your topping with a drizzle.it is.not good for frosting. and if your chocolate is thin you have to move very fast.i find it good for drizzling four cakes but not for one.for one cake use i serving spoon.it saves time on clean up. it is great for filling cup cake tins regular or mini

I haven't used it in a cake, but I would assume it would be fine for recipes that called for "Dutch-processed" cocoa powder. Do not use in recipes that call for natural cocoa, because it likely has enough baking soda or other alkali to balance out the acidity of natural cocoa. I have only used it a bunch of times in a hazelnut-mocha macaron recipe (with great sucess!), and in a hot cocoa drink.

Absolutely! It works beautifully and the taste is incredible! This is the only brand chocolate I use in my fountain..and the white is my favorite flavor! Enjoy!

I've used them both for cake frosting and cookie icing and didn't notice any change in flavor. Even though I had to use more than traditional coloring to get a darker color - still kept my frosting flavor intact.

It is excellent in baking and can be substituted for unsweetened powdered cocoa in most recipes. We love it in ice cream and a rich chocolate cookie recipe. I recommend this product highly.
