Answers:
you dont put melted chocolate on cupcakes, you put chocolate ICING!. Normal chocolate would just harden!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
The best cakes come from the best ingredients, and you'll want to choose the best chocolate you can find!. This may not, however, be the most expensive brand!. There is a simple way to know whether you are selecting a quality chocolate: Check the ingredients label!. If it lists any fat other than cocoa butter, it's not the good stuff!. (Many manufacturers add palm kernel oil, coconut oil or other vegetable fats to their chocolate because they are cheaper than cocoa butter!.)
Here's some more thoughts on what to look for in chocolate:
Milk Chocolate: If you love the smooth, creamy flavor of milk chocolate, you are not alone!. Although I am a big fan of milk chocolate bars, I usually don't espouse milk chocolate in baking, and instead choose darker chocolate for a more assertive flavor!.
Semisweet Baking Chocolate: Almost all of the recipes in my book contain some amount of semisweet baking chocolate!. If you prefer darker, more assertively flavored chocolate, you may substitute exactly the same amount of bittersweet chocolate in any of my recipes!. Do check the ingredients label on the packaging, which should read (in this order): chocolate (unsweetened), sugar, cocoa butter, soy lecithin (an emulsifier), vanilla extract!. As mentioned above, do not purchase chocolate that contains any fat other than cocoa butter!.
