Hi everyone,

I am looking for a source (preferably Florida or in the Southeast for shipping purposes} for mint milk chocolate. I am located in Puerto Rico and want to make mint chocolate rum balls. I was experimenting with various recipes to come up with what I felt was a great product and I did. I used Hershey's mint sticks in the experimental recipe and then the project stopped when the world blew up in 08.

Can someone help me find a source or offer any suggestions?

Thanks in advance for your reply,

Tim

Find a good milk chocolate, and find some peppermint oil - a few drops per kilo should do it.

Thanks. I will look into this and see what I can find. As you can tell, I don't know anything about chocolate and knew that I could find help here.

Why not just use natural peppermint oil to flavor your milk chocolate? That way you don't have to buy a specialty chocolate for just one product. You could probably find it locally in PR at stores that supply the candymaking industry or hobby.

Edit: woops missed jo's post stating exactly the same! great minds and all...

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.
