The-chocolate formed or molded solid candy contains at least one active ingredient that is blended with the chocolate candy during conching of the chocolate candy. A method for manufacturing the chewable chocolate candy is also disclosed. In the blending phase, a chocolate liquor is blended with additional ingredients to obtain the desired individual chocolate recipe for the chocolate delivery vehicle. The selected dietary supplement and/or pharmaceutical compounds are then added to the chocolate liquor, which is then conched for the desired time period. When the conching phase is completed, the conched chocolate is tempered, after which the tempered chocolate having 60% or more cacao mass may be formed into various sizes and shapes for individually- wrapped pieces, or formed into large blocks for storage and shipment.</p> |
