Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A

Can you tell me the difference between the two above please.

Hi Kathyham

Chocolate Regalice is sugarpaste coloured with coco powder, it tastes chocolately but it isn’t proper chocolate. Coco form is made with good quality chocolate, glucose sugar syrup and sometimes water. It can be made at home using less expensive chocolate, however, if you want to cover cakes with it as you would do with sugar paste, it is much better to buy commercial preparation for consistency in taste, texture and stability. For covering it can be mixed half and half with sugarpaste, for making the chocolate wrap cake it would be better to use on it’s own because the wrap requires the paste to hold its shape. Hope this helps.
