2.3. Monitoring bloom formation on chocolate chips
To quantify the amount of bloom formed on the chocolate chip
surfaces after 10 days, images of chocolate chips were analyzed for
bloom. Pictures of chocolate chips were taken using a stereomicroscope,
magnification 1.5×, and a digital camera (Nikon SMZ-10 microscope;
Nikon DS-5m camera head; Nikon DS-L1 control unit).
