New low-calorie no-melt chocolate created

Boffins at a Swiss chocolate company have created a new chocolate which won't melt in your hands ... and has 90% fewer calories.

Chocolatiers at Barry Callebaut say they created the Vulcano bars, which are said to taste like a regular treat rather than a diet one, by accident.

According to bosses the new choc will only melt at temperatures over 55 degrees though melts in the mouth because of the enzymes in saliva.

As such it is thought the confection could become a hit in countries like China and India where the temperature has hindered chocolate sales.

The chocolate is due to go on sale within two years ... so unfortunately you won't be taking a bar to the beach this holiday.
