The invention relates to a Heat stable chocolate comprising a fat phase, said fat phase of said heat stable chocolate comprising: 0.1-15% by weight of crystalline seed, 0.01-5% by weight of an emulsifier not being lecithin, said fat phase of said heat stable chocolate further comprising 25-94.9% by weight of a cocoa butter, a cocoa butter equivalent or combinations thereof, and at least 5% by weight of a cocoa butter improver, wherein said crystalline seed comprises SatOSat-triglycerides in an amount of between 40-95% by weight of said crystalline seed and StOSt-triglycerides in an amount of 30-85% by weight of said crystalline seed, wherein the main endotherm melt peak position of said crystalline seed is about 40° C. or higher when measured by Differential Scanning Calorimetry by heating samples of 10±1 mg of crystalline seed from 20° C. to 50° C. at a rate of 3° C./min to produce a melting thermogram defining said main endotherm melt peak position, and wherein Sat stands for a saturated fatty acid, St stands for stearic acid and O stands for oleic acid.
