Alpaca fabric is known for providing warmth, breathability, and durability, but no one enjoys cleaning up a chocolate stain on their clothes. Thankfully, with a few simple steps you can get rid of those pesky chocolate stains! Here’s what you need to do:

  • If the chocolate stain is still fresh, try to scrape off as much as possible with a spoon or knife.
  • Soak the garment in lukewarm water mixed with mild, liquid detergent.
  • Wring the garment out and rinse it with cold water.
  • If necessary, pretreat stain with a few drops of hydrogen peroxide.
  • Add detergent and a cup of white vinegar to a bucket of warm water, and submerge garment for a few minutes.
  • Once again wring garment and rinse with cold water.
  • Machine wash as you normally would, and air dry or use the dryer on the lowest heat setting.

You can also use a commercial stain remover or a paste made with baking soda and hydrogen peroxide. Simply apply the paste onto the stain and rinse thoroughly with cold water. Once stain has been treated and removed, the garment should be dried as soon as possible. If the stain was not fully removed, you can repeat the process until it is gone.

Finally, it’s important to avoid using any harsh chemicals on alpaca fabrics, as they can damage fabric. If you need to use a stain remover, be sure to test it on a small, inconspicuous area of the garment first.
