'Mockolate' becomes reality

A bar of chocolate has been created that can supposedly be eaten while you diet.

Its makers claim it has 90% fewer calories than a normal bar and doesn’t melt as easy as every day chocolate.

Swiss chocolatier Barry Callebaut has named his secret ingredient “Vulcano” because it can withstand heat up to 55C.

A spokesman told the Daily Mirror: “Our engineers stumbled upon the technique by accident.

“It’s nice and chocolatey with a strong aroma. It does melt in the mouth but it is the enzymes in saliva rather than the heat that cause it to dissolve.”
