To clean chocolate out of linen start by gently scraping off any excess chocolate and then rinse the back of chocolate stained area with some cold water.

Next apply some detergent or dish soap to the chocolate stain and allow it to sit for a few minutes or longer.

Then rinse it thoroughly with some cold water before you wash it in the washing machine as usual.

You can also use some borax and cold water to remove the chocolate stains from the linen.

Baking soda, dish soap and water can also help remove chocolate from linen as well as clothing.

With prompt treatment and with the right methods including scraping off any excess chocolate and flushing with cold water and using a stain remover and detergent you can get most chocolate stains out.

The best thing to do to get chocolate stains out of fabric is to act quickly and remove the chocolate stains as soon as it occurs if possible.

Use a dull knife or spoon to scrape off any excess chocolate from the fabric.

Apply a stain remover or small amount of laundry detergent directly to the chocolate stain.

And wash the fabric in cold water using the correct detergent for the certain fabric type.

And only dry the fabric or clothing once the stain has been removed as drying the fabric or garment with the stain still in it can cause the stain to set in.

For older or more stubborn chocolate stains you may need to use a specialized stain remover.
