Yet when there is chocolate, there are stains as well.

          So what to do now? Impose a self-proclaimed ban on chocolates for yourself or discard all of your white pants? Luckily you don’t have to stoop to any of these measures, because if you spill down some chocolate on your pants, our stain removal tips will make sure that the stain doesn’t bother you and comes off easily. Follow the directions given below and hopefully by the time you are done with them, you will have got rid of chocolate stains satisfactorily.

             Although the following method is pretty simple and involves ingredients which are readily available in almost every household, yet it has known to yield pretty satisfactory results.

Things that you will require:

·      Dull knife

·      Cold running water

·      Tub

·      Laundry detergent

Steps that you need to take:

1.  The first step deals with removing excess chocolate from the stain. For this you will primarily have to allow the chocolates to dry so that it hardens. Trying to remove chocolate in its molten state will only spread the stain further instead of removing it. Once the chocolate has hardened, take a spoon or dull knife and scrape away as much chocolate as possible.

2.  Follow this step by placing the back side of the stained fabric under cold running water. This step would wash away majority of the chocolate from the stain.

3.  Next, you have to take hold of a tub and make a cleaning solution in it by combining water and laundry detergent.

4.  Soak this chocolate stained garment in this detergent solution for some time, approximately half an hour.

5.  Afterwards, launder the fabric like you usually do and allow the garment to air dry.

Tips and Warnings:

1.  Do not use hot or warm water while treating chocolate stains.

2.  Always make sure that the stain has been entirely removed before placing the cloth in dryer, otherwise it is quite probable that the heat from the dryer would further set the chocolate stain.

3.  If the stain refuses to come off, despite the method elaborated above then you ought to treat the stain with a bleach in order to get rid of it.
