We have had some success with using the book cleaner that Demco offers. But you have to be careful not to use too much as it will damage the paper. Guess a lot of people eat chocolate while they are reading. :)

Jessica, The sugar and moisture mixes with the paper and creates a kind of glue and the fat in the chocolate is almost impossible to remove. I would charge the patron for the cost of the book.

Good afternoon, 

Does anyone know how to get chocolate smooshed and smeared off the edges of the pages of a book?
