The chocolate is still safe to eat like that. It goes like that when it melts and sets again.
Yeah, it's the cocoa solids crystallising on top :)
The white on the Chocolate means that it has melted and then hardened again 😊 If Chocolate cools down fast, like in a fridge or freezer, then this happens...
Yep I'm a Chocolatier (no sh*t) it's just the cocoa butter moving through the chocolate it separates slightly and crystallises on the surface of the chocolate it is still edible its called "fat bloom" Mainly found on older chocolate.
Yup that's the one!
@@nzkiwiange Ah, thanks, I always wanted to know what exactly crystallizes 😊 I am a chemist so I only knew that this can happen with mixtures...
@@nzkiwiange It does taste less good though... Is that just psychological or does it actually loose its taste?
I'm watching this and other videos of amy's,after hearing of her passing!!!Even though i never really knew her"only from following her story"her passing has hit me really hard!As has chronically jacquie's,,who i hear passed away awhile before'aged just 23??I followed her story too!I'm 66 and in fairly good health"not brilliant;but nothing to what these very strong;brave young ladies have been through!!These passing away just makes me realise how lucky i am to be here still!Iv'e had my children;3 daughters!!And the house bit too!!Both their passings hit even harder as they'd just moved into their homes!!!That is so tragic!!They talkied about children"that's so bloody hard to take!!!Life is so short,so precious,and so bloody unfair!!!!!!RIP AMY!!!ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL ANGEL!!
Amy, please reply to me. I live in Aus and am very very sick to the point of almost being bed bound (though sometimes I can use my wheelchair to get out of bed) due to my extremely low bp from POTS (I have EDS). I cannot find a doctor in Australia who knows about ports for EDS to allow me to run fluids that I desperately need. Please tell me how you have got medical assistance to have a port in Australia- this could change my life. thank you so much
Look up DNRS. I had MCAS, chronic fatigue, POTs, electric hypersensitivity, sound sensitivity and now I have significantly improved my condition.
The chocolate has ‘bloomed’. It just means it was partially melted then hardened again.
I genuinely could not care less what anyone thinks or says... Idk if theyre late, i am just thankful for the videos. We all know your health is so finneky, one day youre okay, or even one second you're okay and then the next youre puking your guts out or in an incredible amount of excruciating pain. We love you amy and appreciate the effort youre still putting in to vlogmas even if theyre a bit late. Much love to you amy❤❤ praying your health gets better in 2020!!
I’m so proud of her, she finally gained weight! I’m so proud that she’s been able to keep food down so well enough to eat weight! Ilysm Amy!! 💖💖💖💖💖💖 👉🏻👈🏻🥺
I dont mean to be offtopic but does someone know a way to get back into an instagram account??
I was stupid forgot my login password. I appreciate any assistance you can offer me
It's called bloomed chocolate.. It's where the fats have separated from the chocolate solid due to heat
I'm loving the way this lipstick looks!
I feel like I don't know anyone who watched Vampire Diaries and really loved it so I'm glad you brought it up! I do a rewatch every couple of years. I absolutely loved it.
Watch the originals, it the follow on series
@@emilyjane7166 I love The Originals!!
Please let us know if you have been affected by the fires!
This what i been worried about
Your first recommended video was from a year or two ago and I've been watching almost all your videos and I am so happy to see how far you have come
Your weight gain and all because I almost cried seeing that video where you first had your hickman line hope im spelling it right lol
God bless you love🥰🥰 you are such a brave and strong lady
R.I.P. 🤍
Amy and Tom my favorite CZcamsrs love ❤️ you guys to bits 🥳 happy New Year 🎈🎆
I’m early for this video! I love ur videos so much, they have helped me through the worse of times just going back and watching all ur videos! ❤️ have a amazing day x
Loveeeeee the intro animation 👏🏼👏🏼
I miss Amy so much.
Honey you look beautiful :3😊😊😊your so brave im sure you'll get better soon
The white is called “blooming”. Its just the fats rising to the surface. It doesnt effevt the chocolate at all.
I’ve always wondered about that! Thank you 😊
how many people are going to comment about this damn chocolate
could be two types of reactions known as chocolate Bloom. one is related to its fatty acids and the other, the sugar.
Fat Bloom (is moist, sticky etc)
chocolate has sugar and a large variety of lipids etc
each one melts at a different t "boiling point"
when they solidify or rather, recrystalise, they don't necessarily (aka usually, they don't) return to the exact type they were before (most chocolate uses a type of cocoa butter k own for its stability. when it recrystalises or if it wasn't tempered correctly, then the c.b (cocoa butter Vi being most stable) will become a less stable form like V or IV (meaning, the chocolate can then "Bloom" uncontrollably
sugar Bloom
(feels rather dry and the texture is...sandy)
sugars have a lot of water content vs lipids which are more complicated than the usual Carbon to sugar to water set ratios lol.
som it evaporates. poof!!! however, you can MAYBE revive it and maybe return it to yummy goodness.
usually a drop of water and a...hair dryer on low. too fast and you will not get great results.
this is much harder if it's the fat as the recrystalisation that occurs just ends up making it...still lousy (ever had some sorbet melt a lot, try to refreeze and the texture is way off? that's dueto the matrix of the new crystals reforming all askew,unlike the perfectly homogenous crystal lattice it came in XD
/chemistry class is done
Good day to you guys. I hope you have a fabulous day, and your feeling well. A big HELLO from Florida. You and Tom are so so wonderful, and cute together. I love watching your vlogs. They make me smile/laugh! I have to stay home every day, due chronic illness. It sucks but, I try to make the best of it. Pain plays a huge role in my life as well. You are truly an inspiration to all, and your a really strong woman! Thank you for sharing your story, and educating us all. I know your not religious but, I'm sending luv and prayers. Anywhoo.... I'm rambling. Lol! Lots of well wishes and blessings to you all! I know we have no clue who each other are but, I'm here if you ever want to talk. Big HUGS! :)
I unfortunately found her channels after she passed away but i love watching her videos they’re so informative and she seemed like a really nice person :) i’m obsessed with this harry potter advent calendar
The chocolate is fine to eat that way...will do if melted also will do if I’m fridge, or gets cold in general.
Missed ya
How I was taught to make tea is boil the water or take it off just before boiling for green or herbal teas. Add a splash of the water to the pot, swirl it around tip it out and the add tea ( the general rule for tea was 1 teaspoon per person and 1 for the pot ) and then add the hot water
Do you use the freestyle libra app to scan sometimes?
Buscopan is for upper abdomen ,for me mebeverine helps intestinal cramping the most ,buscopan doesn't help at all
They say at the lebre talks they cannot garantie the accuracy of sensor if it not on the arm so how did you find your sensor when you had it on your stomach last time
Good to see you more. You are so great. I hope you guys had a merry Christmas and a happy healthy New year
You need to watch the originals it’s amazing 🤩
Love you and your vlogs never been this early
Amy try using your skin prep spray prior to putting the sensor on. I use the libra sensors and put them on my stomach and find it’s best to put an extra covering over it. It’s suggested that you cut a small hole in the centre and place that hole over the centre hole on the sensor.
Hi Amy, just wanted to let you know you’re are amazing
P.s. you should try the strawberry and cream tea as an iced tea
It's cocoa butter when chocolate melts cocoa butter sweats out then when you fridge it it solidifies on the outside as a white-ish layer of cocoa butter goodness .
"Pantry"... what a good ol' English word! Takes me back to my Grandma's kitchen (1960's); may all pantries be well-stocked all over the world in 2020!
What do you call your pantry then? That’s what I’ve always called it and I’m a Californian lol!
@@meganw8310 Hi... I was born in England but have lived in Italy for 40yrs so actually I don't really know if it's still a "pantry"! It just struck me as a nice old-fashioned word; our pantry was a walk-in cupboard... it was also called a "larder" - do u use that in USA? - in the North of England the weather is always cold so (having no 'fridge) meat was kept in a "meat safe" on the outside of the back-door wall, it consisted of a grid 4 air to circulate and a lock & key; washed clothes were passed through a wooden mangle by hand... no spin-dry - I assure u that our "woolies" NEVER dried completely on the clothes line outside and never really completely dried even on the "clothes horse" in front of the peat/coal open fireplace... brrr - during '66/'67 I was about 11yrs old and I was already "California Dreaming" on such winters' days
I just got that sugar monitor, thank you for showing me how to use it !
Amy what do you think about the free style libre ? i will get one 2 ( diabetic type 1)
Can you do your buscopan subcut? I have a sub-cut line in, that I only change every three days so it's only one needle poke every three days. I've used the saf t intima lines and the medtronic quick sets for my steroids which are three times a day, there is a bit more of an infection risk so you need to keep everything clean but you'll be used to all that with your Hickman line.
I went out today and got this tea!! I'm so happy there is a T2 in Christchurch. Hawt Dog this Strawberry and Cream one is SOOOOOOOOO GOOD I told the lady behind the counter that it was recommended by a girl I follow on CZcams...she said "OH WOW so COOL"
Is yours filled with water?
Ron Weasley: bloody hell
Amy Fisher: bloody hell
The chocolate has bloom, because it was melted and refreeze it will happen.... it is still good
It just has a slightly different flavour 😉
I'm so happy that you are so positive about your illnesses! ♡♡ I have had gastoparesis for 30 years and 2 other very bad illnesses ! Besides all the TPN and fluids and all the many meds . It gets so hard ,and I'm so incredibly weak ,I pray you do better than I have ! I've had so many surgeries, I can't count anymore ! I presently not on pain meds ,trying to take a break ,but it's the hardest thing I have ever done ! They want me back in the hospital because I've lost 20 pounds, which I didn't have the fat to lose in the first place ! I'm like a bag of bones again ,so disappointed, I need another blood transfusion! Plus I have epilepsy, and have seizures on both sides of the brain which is rare ! They want me to have brain surgery, because meds. Are not working, I'm so afraid! Your videos really help ! Love you ! ♡♡♡♡
Are you allright?
Happy New Year to you both. I hope you had a lovely Christmas as well.
Have a look at the tea range from Roogenics, they have a store in Fremantle somewhere. They're native strawberry is amazing as an iced tea
The white on the chocolate is just the sugar rising to the top. It’s called Sugar Bloom and it happens when you’ve put it in the fridge and then taken it out into warm air! Still okay to eat even though it looks weird 😁
you are so wonderful today 💜
I’m a pastry chef and when chocolate does that it means it has bloomed. Older chocolate that has had very harsh temperature changes it happens. It can taste off cause the sugar has come to the surface of the chocolate. It is perfectly fine to eat even better if u melt them down and make chocolate covered strawberries with them.
Merry very late Christmas! I hope you had a good day! As a diabetic I’ve never had my sensor in that area; and I use the libre as well, how is it?
Today I bought the strawberries and cream tea today at your recommendation and I’m very happy with it
Hi Sweetie Are you and your family okay with the fires in your areas?
Think of you everyday and how deserved a better life 🌷💗🌷🤗😕
It was because of Amy that I bought a hotpod for pain management. Got one about 2yrs ago & has been wonderful.
I used the freestyle sensor as well before. But I got an allergic reaction to it so I got a Dexcom instead :) Way more happier with the Dexcom!
i wish i had the dexcom available in my country.
i got a (severe) allergic reaction too and it has been 2 months since i stopped using the libre. i miss it tho :(
Your so beautiful!!
Do the teas bother your Gastroparesis ?
If memory serves correctly the white on choc can be either Sugar bloom or Fat bloom, it's fine to eat but the mouth feel could be more gritty than normal.
Keep up the great work Amy, hope your xmas day was as pain free as possible 😁
Hey hope you have a great new year and wish u the best for 2020
What do you use to make your thumbnails ? Ps. I love your channel so much🥰
Nothing wrong with the chocolates. It gets white when it melts and reset. The coco and cream separates.
DEAR AMY : ¡¡ HAPPY NEW YEAR !! =D ...
I have the exact same heat pack as you. I get lots of abdo pain from lots of girly issues (if you get my drift) but I do think it’s a very good heat pack. My son, who is 4 always tries to take it to cuddle when I have it out.
Chocolate does that if it’s melted and re-hardened,it’s still perfectly fine to eat,just looks a bit weird
Happy new year x
What a coincidence, o started the vlog while waiting for my water to boil, half way to brew some Argentinian red mix tea... The flavor is gorgeous!
te de río negro?
@@lauralpr7891 I don't know, I bought it while on Buenos Aires
@@emanuelribeiro9066 because the best te is from Patagonia
@@lauralpr7891 thanks for the advice! Next time I'm down there, I'll try get some!
@@emanuelribeiro9066 ❤❤❤
I know it’s a bit late now but where did you get your Harry Potter advent calendar from 😍 love you both 💓
I'm going to get two for next Christmas I love the pop figurines Sooooo cute
Rachel Kohm thanks have a good new year x
When will you be posting new videos again?
I love your shirt it is really nice and festive.
Where did you get your custom Pyjamas ? I noticed your name on them. Cute
If it's white on it and just cocoa butter coming to the surface it fine
Amy who did your animation for your new intro? It's so wonderful. Hopefully you and your family are having a wonderful Christmas.
Erika Baird right!!
The weird colour in chocolate is caused by liquid fat such as cocoa butter migrating through the chocolate and crystalizing on the surface
Hey Amy, the white is just the cocoa butter separating because of the heat. I saw that on the back of my Quality street packet today! X
That “white-ish” stuff just means the chocolate was exposed to heat then cold then heat...etc. not bad for you unless you eat a lot of it but I would just return it or throw it away...if you ever open chocolate chips and see white stuff...do not use them...in the oven they will not melt/taste right after cooking. Yuck!
All chocolates have butter in them, and when they are put in the ref for a period of time the butter will come to the surface. The candies are still eatable.
Aw you bought a Riklig from Ikea! My boyfriend has been using it for years, actually broke it and bought anew 2 times :p I think you also have the larger pot. For reference, about 5-6 grams of black or green tea is enough for a strong taste in full pot if you can let it sit for a few extra minutes :)
..when my blood sugar is low or havin hypoglicemic aside from trembling im havin a nosebleed i tend to drink coke sometimes i took a bit of chocolates..
thanks u for inspiring me and pulling me out to be a tough as u
Aice Azriel Basco I’m a T1 diabetic and chocolate is not recommended for a hypo. Soft drinks are ok except low sugar / zero sugar varieties.
The chocolate turns white because of the fat or sugar crystallizing. It's called a CHOCOLATE BLOOM. You can eat the chocolate as is, or melt it down to even out the sugar and fat content throughout. It's still safe to eat.
Amy, first off- HAPPY HOLIDAYS!! Secondly I truly admire your will to live and have a normal life. You project such a warm and kindly nature. God bless and watch over you.🦄
Amy, I need to get a ring splint and I remembered you got yours on etsy and really liked them but I cant remember the name of the shop you got them from. Could you let me know what that was. Thank you so much.
If you scroll through her videos (I believe it's on her other channel) you'll find one that's strictly about the splints and she says the name of the shop! :)
Ej Doug you can also Google sterling silver finger splints I think they are necessary and gorgeous!
Thank you Jordan Kruger and Angie Wilson!!🙂🙂🙂
Would a temporary injection port be useful for you? Or is that for Type 1 DM only? Please forgive me if you have answered this before. Searching comments is not easy.
You are to cute for words! Sending much love & prayers ❤
My friend's little brother had AML (acute myeloid leukemia) and he has a chronic illness (EDS). His survival chances was almost 10%. Because he had a very strong chemotherapy courses, he was in catheters and tubes like you. He is in remission now. He had a "Broviac" catheter for fluid infusions. Stay strong Amy 🥰🥰🥰! Sorry if I made some mistakes, because I speak Russian and know English not so good...
I agree with the previous comment the chocolates are still safe it’s just the cocoa butter coming to the surface sometimes it age but it’s not bad it happens to our chocolate morsels all the time here in South Florida because were so hot.
thinking of you with the wild fires in Australia
Weird my sensor instructions say to only use on back of the arm. It says don't use other areas because they will give "off" readings
I use my thighs all the time its fine to change it depending on where you would inject a lot if diabetic etc, I physically can't use my arms so you are allowed to change the site and use stomach thighs bum whatever you wish
Love from Italy
the chocolate is still safe to eat that way
I have EDS too and I too get really bloated! Looks like I'm pregnant.. but I thought it was just fat haha
That’s too much tea for how much water you put in 😝 the tea leaves expand quite a bit so you really only need a little bit of tea 😁
Its called bloom and its technically harmless, but to me it makes the chocolate powdery and wrong tasting.
3:38 I just recently watched Vamps, starring Krysten Ritter & Alicia Silverstone and it was pretty entertaining 😆 I don’t know if you’re still into vampires tho haha
Are you still doing vlogs? I’m not getting notices if you are. Pray all is well. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
The chocolate is still good
Amy where you ? Hope you are ok xxx
They sell the hotpods at my local pharmacy Lloyds just to let you know
*Happy Christmas Amy and Tom* ❤️❤️❤️🎄
Random question: how do you know if you have a tummy bug?
I cant speak for Amy but I have the same condition. For me its completely different to the "normal" every day vomiting. When it's a bug the vomiting is much more violent , I feel more clammy and generally not right and plus point I dont get the diorreah as my colon transit is too slow for it to do anything. But this does mean the bug lasts longer and the vomiting is more extreme.
@@natashacorrigan6917 thank you so much for this x
@@natashacorrigan6917 awww I feel for you and admire anyone who lives with this condition you must be an amazing individual!! Kia Kaha! Arohanui!
I use to never know when I had a bug.
Amy are you and Tom and you’re family safe? From the Australia fires? You haven’t posted new CZcams video since 12 of December, am worried about you guys please give us updates if you can💕 praying for Australia.
I was wondering the same thing. Hope to see a update soon.
💋💋💋
It’s been ages since I turned off the Libre volume and hearing it beeping was mind blowing 😂😂
