trouble making chocolate with cocoa butter, agave

valgal123

I spent $20 on cocoa butter to make chocolate. The recipes I have tried all use agave as sweetener. Well, it separates from the butter. I really don't want to spend another $20 for lucuma powder or yacon powder so I can make raw chocolate! I bought molds to, I was not expecting this! Sweet Gratitude uses sucanat, but thats sugar so that is out. Need help. Thanks

I'm not very experienced in chocolate making, so I tend to throw the ingredients in the blender with the melted cacao butter. By hand, it helps if the agave goes in last so it has other ingredients to work with. Here is some summer chocolate inspiration from the raw chef:
