I'm interested in hearing whether or not chocolate makers who sell at fairs and festivals have had any success selling unsweetened baking chocolate. I love using my bean-to-bar chocolate in baking, of course, but would like to hear if vendors at these kinds of events have tried it. My thought is packaging it as four 2-oz bars with about four recipes included......basics like brownies, cookies, cake, etc.
The trick to using liquor instead of cocoa powder is to understand that liquor by weight is +/- 50% fat. You can't use liquor and not adjust the other fats that the recipe calls for (butter, vegetable oil, etc).
For example if your recipe calls for 1/4 c of cocoa powder, you need to use 1/2 c of liquor and reduce the other fat in your recipe by 1/4 c. it's really that simple.
I think you'll also find that by reducing other fats, your baked goods will be much lighter and fluffier than using shortenings, or oil. At least that's been my experience.
Cheers

The headline says it all: United Cacao: the sad tale of when things really go wrong for Aim investors .
Two changes we made with the chocolate is that this time we winnowed the chocolate. This time we didn't use a blow dryer to melt the chocolate. Two improvements with the chocolate is that the melanger didn't get clogged this time and everyone put in work.
