What You Will Need:

  • White Vinegar
  • Liquid laundry detergent
  • Cold Water
  • Soft cloths or sponges
  • Dishwashing liquid
  • Bucket

Step-By-Step Cleaning Instructions

  1. Blot the chocolate with a soft cloth or sponge. Be careful to not rub the chocolate further into the fabric as this can cause further damage.
  2. Gently dab white vinegar onto the chocolate stain. The vinegar acidity helps to break up the stain.
  3. Mix together some cold water and a gentle liquid laundry detergent in a bucket. Soak the stained area in the mixture for a few minutes.
  4. Rinse the area with clean cold water.
  5. Using a soft cloth and some dishwashing liquid, gently blot the area. Rinse again with cold water.
  6. Lay wrap dress flat and let it air dry.

Tips For Success

  • Be sure to use cold water when washing the wrap dress as hot water can set in the stain.
  • Don’t use too much detergent as this could cause a discoloration of the material.
  • If stain is still present after the cleaning process, take the dress to a professional dry cleaner.
