Chocolates that don't melt even in heat

Last Updated 25 November 2012, 15:44 IST

New ‘temperature-tolerant chocolates’ that don’t melt even at 40 degree Celsius have been developed by confectionery giant Cadbury, which will soon be available in hot-weather countries like India.

Scientists at Cadbury’s research and development plant in Bourneville, in the UK said the new chocolate bars stay completely solid even when exposed to temperatures of 40 degree Celsius for more than three hours.

Cadbury engineers have set out the method for making breakthrough “temperature-tolerant chocolate” in an 8,000-word patent application, the ‘Daily Mail’ reported.

While standard chocolate has a melting point of 34 degree Celsius, the new bars are ideal for warmer weather.

The new recipe will be available in hot countries, likely to include India and Brazil.
