Bakers semi-sweet chocolate packaging [duplicate]
In baking chocolate marshmallo logs, the recipe calls for 3 sq of semisweet chocolate. In the new packaging box, how many squares do I now use?
Best Answer
Squares of classic Baker’s chocolate were usually 1 oz each so, regardless of the brand, if the recipe calls for three squares, you should use three ounces of chocolate.
You can see in the image above that there are eight individually-wrapped one-ounce squares in the box.
The box should indicate the weight for each square or rectangle. If it doesn’t, check for the total weight of the box in ounces and divide by the number of squares. So, as an example, if you have a four-ounce bar divided into eight squares, each square is 1/2 ounce. To have three ounces, you need six squares.
Since you don’t state what your box has, I can’t tell you specifically but this should get you to the answer.

What happened to bakers chocolate?
In 1966 production moved from Dorchester, Massachusetts to Dover, Delaware. The company was passed onto Kraft Foods in 1989 when they acquired General Foods. Baker's is now owned by Kraft Heinz, a company formed by the merger between Kraft Foods and Heinz.Did bakers chocolate change the size of their squares?
Because the makers of that ingredient had done something not very cook-friendly \u2014 they'd halved the weight on their boxes of chocolate squares but replaced them with boxes of almost identical dimensions; so it's no wonder a cook picking up the new 4-oz.MLE CORE Point depositing | SACMI Packaging \u0026 Chocolate
