Method: The method include extraction of herbal material and mixing to prepare syrup to formulate chocolate. Result: Viscosity Determination of Chocolate Base: It is determined by Brookfield viscometer and observed to be 560cp viscosity = 0.40kg/ms. The amount of force needed to break the tablet may be found using a Monsanto Hardness Tester or a Pfizer Hardness Tester and is found to be 0.2 Kg/cm² . No Flat or Sugar Bloom observed. The formulation is stabal at 2-80C. Conclusion: According to the results, the chocolate made the mixture feel velvety smooth. Additionally, it effectively disguised the medicine's bad taste, giving it a more appealing choice for consumption.
