Summary

ThoseStardew Valleyfans who are patiently waiting for more news on ConcernedApe’sHaunted Chocolatierwill be pleased to know thatthey can satisfy their sweet tooth thanks to this excellent new mod. Given the variety of crops Farmers can stumble upon in Pelican Town, it’s certainly odd that Cocoa beans aren’t available in the base version ofStardew Valley. Players can make chocolate cake but when it comes to brewing up sweet bars of candy, options are practically non-existent which may disappoint those hoping to create a chocolate empire.

Fortunately, that’s about to change thanks toorangeblossom’s excellent"Chocolate Valley" mod over on Nexus Mods which adds an entire chocolate-making system intoStardew Valley.The add-on features two new plants, five artisan machines, several ingredients, and a variety of chocolate recipes for players to craft with their new crop of beans. Better yet, each of the chocolate recipes comes with special buffs that the creator admits can be overpowered but all-in-all, this just makes the game a little more, especially for those who want to pack a treat for their next expedition down the mines.

Each of these will last four minutes in real life, so players will need to pack a few to get through the tougher sections of Skull Cavern.
