Marmite Chocolates

Someone told me that they had released Marmite with chocolate and as someone who likes Marmite and chocolate i was intrigued.I naturally assumed that it was one of there limited edition jars that they occasionally release,like the Marmite XO.What it turned out to be was a chocolate bar with 2% of Marmite added.As i wasn't sure whether it would taste okay or not,plus it was quite expensive for a small bar,i decided not to purchase a bar.
Later at home i got to thinking,maybe i could attempt to make my own version.So i bought some cheap dark chocolate and set to.I melted the chocolate over a pan of boiling water in the usual way.When the chocolate was part melted i began to add the Marmite.I added a little at a time as i didn't want the Marmite to overpower the chocolate(I knew it would be a fine line between to much and too little).2 small teaspoonfuls seemed to be the right amount and i continued to melt the chocolate.The adding of the Marmite seemed to solidify the chocolate so when i began to add it to the moulds i had to push it in by the spoon rather than pour it in.
Unfortunately i ran out and had to make some more.When i tasted the chocolates after they had hardened you could tell which was the second batch as the consistency was not quite right.The first batch were perfect,in fact some people who tasted them,when told that the chocolate contained
Marmite,said that they didn't like Marmite,but these were lovely.
