Coming Soon! Chocolate That Won't Hurt Your Waistline!

Think you can't ever enjoy the mouth-wateringly delicious taste of chocolate ever again? Think again!

Scientists for one of the world's largest chocolate company have created a new chocolate that contains 90% fewer calories than normal chocolate! They are calling it the Vulcano, because although it will melt in your mouth, it won't melt in the sun.

Belonging to the Swiss chocolate manufacturer Barry Callebaut, this chocolate is light and crispy. According to this article at Guardian.co.uk, the Vulcano resulted from a mistake, the results of which were then developed further. This chocolate manufacturer has achieved something no other chocolate manufacturer has managed before.

"Developed in a laboratory under top-secret conditions by an international team of food engineers, it not only has 90% fewer calories than the average chocolate product, it is also heat-resistant to temperatures of up to 55C (131F). Most chocolate starts to melt at 30 degrees."


It's not expected to be available for purchase for another two years. The question is, can you wait that long?

  1. I'll be curious to try this chocolate! Not only for the lower calorie part, but for the heat resistance. I've had climate stable chocolate before but the flavor was less than wonderful. If this product is as good as they say, they could make a killing on it.

  3. You do not need to wait for a "mistake." Quality dark chocolate (Dove is my favorite) has monounsaturated fat, which is the HEALTHY FAT that actually helps you BURN belly fat. I have eaten Dove dark chocolate EVERY DAY and have lost 25+lbs since February. :-D

  4. I don't *gag* eat chocolate, but I had to chime in and agree with Mama Bear June. Good quality dark chocolate is excellent for your health and available now.

    I'd be very wary of what's in this new miracle chocolate that keeps it from melting. I shudder to think!

  5. I'd rather eat a small amount of good, real chocolate than Franken-chocolate. But I'm awfully curious. I admit I'd probably try it once...

  6. Many feels that chocolate is not good for health. But some are good for health like, unsweetened chocolate, bitter-sweet chocolate, raw chocolate bar. One can add grinded cacao beans to smoothie preparations, sweet dishes, tea or beverages, yoghurts, granolas, ice-cream or sweet preparations.

Sorry about the word verification. I turned it off and started getting tons of SPAM, so I had to turn it back on again.
