    The one thing you have to remember is that hot water SETS IN chocolate stains. You must use cold. OxyClean is what I would try first. Good Luck.

    LOL!!! I am the most addicted to chocolate person I know. My chocolate stash goes down quicker than the fabric stash. If I run low, my husband has to get me some when he's out! (He gets it because he hunts for good deals. Gets more chocolate that way.) With this said, bread is a wonderful comfort food! Love it, but I stay away from it since I would eat more bread than I do chocolate!

    Not a chocolate eater but you bet on the bread, I dearly love bread, can make a meal on it. So have to fight to stay away from it.

    There may be some validity in licking the stain. Saliva will loosen protein stains so it might work on chocolate. Would try it on scrap fabric first.

    There's a product out called grandma's secret spot remover. Eleanor Burns advertises that it gets out chocolate. You can get it on her web site and I've seen it at LQS.
    Our Hobby Lobby carries it -- in the fabric department. It's usually on display at the cutting table. And definitely don't use any heat on it til it's all gone. Good luck!

    Didn't know that is very interesting. I have poked myself and gotten blood on project, I will try this, Sorry, I am still laughing because this is probably the first thing I would have done with the chocolate so no one would know I was munching LOL.
    that is because the enzymes in our saliva breakdown the proteins in the blood....half strength hydrogen peroxide works too....used to use in on my white uniforms all the time...it breaks or 'lyses' the red blood cells
