How to get chocolate out of carpet

Scrape up excess chocolate first, then blot with cool water and dish soap; carpet often improves, but a remaining mark may need a commercial product made for this.

Lift off any solid chocolate with a dull knife or spoon.
Blot the spot with a clean cloth dampened with cool water.
Mix a small amount of dish soap with cool water.
Blot the stain with the dish soap mixture using a clean cloth.
Blot with a clean cloth dampened with cool water to remove dish soap residue.
Blot with a dry clean cloth until the carpet is as dry as possible.

Don't do this

Do not rub, because rubbing spreads the stain and frays the carpet pile.
Do not overwet the carpet, because too much water can leave a circle in the treated area.
Do not use heat, because it can make the stain harder to remove.

If the stain remains after careful blotting, use a commercial product made for this, used per its label. Do not keep soaking the carpet.
